Rockabilly Car show Aug 16/14

We went to the 5th Anniversary Rockabilly Car Show August 16th, 2014...this is a two day mixed car show and from what I gather, the cars were quite different on Sunday. All cars compete in the same class. There is great live music and a lot of woman dress the part...including my daughter this year.

It is more of a low key even but you always get punters at every show..

The one car I thought I thought I took pictures of was a 69 (I think) Cornet 500..almost legend lime in colour from California...the next time I see it I shall grab a picture..

The host always shows of his latest creation and I gather he won a reward for it at the Moncton Nats ...I gather that the base car started with was a Chrysler 300....the very first car that the gent parked beside us in his latest 300.

Calum and I met the owner of this Barracuda. Friendly would not be a word we would use to describe her..

We saw this guy last year..no interest in Fabo. It was for sale then...I think it was more a object to him than a car..

These cars showed up about 10 minutes apart ..parked in one place and then moved. The second car did the exact same thing. I looked at buying one in '85 and it would have been over 30K..
