Car Show

-White Bear MN – Sunday, July 10^th 2011, in the parking lot at Jimmy’s the American Muscle Street Rod Car Show took place. There were over 100 cars there ranging in makes and models. Color and Style was evident in all the cars. And someone as inexperienced as me, could see that time was put into all of them as well.

At the Car Show the first car we saw was an Amphicar. An Amphicar is a car that was made to drive on the road and the water. The car I saw was white with red seats and had propellers in the back under where the trunk would be. The car was owned by a man named Ken.

The second car I saw was a 1960 Ford F100 Pickup. The man who owned it was named Mike and he lives in Lino Lakes MN. It was red and had original parts and a wood floor in the back of the truck.

After the Pickup I saw a 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS. (super-sport) It was owned by my Grandpa but then he died and now my Uncle Chris does stuff with it. “Part of the reason I like the Impala is because Papa liked it.” Chris stated. Last year he won the Best Classic Car for 2010 by Best Buy. 5 cool facts about his car are: It was built by a man named Jerry Thomas. It is a unique color that is usually used on corvettes. The motor is from 1961. It was built in Janesville WI. And it is 47 years old.

The next car I saw was a 1969 ½ Super Rare-Super Bee. It was Electric Green and was owned by a couple named Dan & Darsey.

An ElCamino. That was the next car
I saw. It was a 1968 ElCamino that was a dark navy blue. It was owned by a man named Scott and he told me that he loves blue.

Another car I saw was an Austin-Healey Bug-Eye Sprite. It was owned by a man named Dave who was from England. It was black and had flames all over it.

The last car I saw was a 1923 model T c-cap fire truck. He had spent a whole winter on it in other words he built it himself in six months. It had metal seats from an airplane and eye stickers on its engine.
