CHECKIN’ OUT SOME OLD IRON

…..and, some young chicks…! 

     Had it not been for my daughter, ValGal, reminding me of this event...I probably might have forgotten about it!  But, she called, picked me up, and we made it!! Well over 100 cars and bikes were spread out over the grounds at American Legion #1, US 1, in Titusville, Fl. Really, not what I had expected, however, the Derelicts Car Club had their act together!! Rat rods, classics, customs from the early days, right up to today, some fiberglass retro’s, and, some...right out of the scope of your imagination!!  I also liked the way some of the girls wore “era” costumes, to fit in with the older cars...neat!! The heat was over-powering...some relief from the fans inside the huge pavilion, where the bar and food counter were doing a pretty brisk business!! The outside stage was host to two fine, live, bands, and ultimately the trophy presentations.   Oh yeah, Bully Rescue was doing their thing with a pit bull Kissing Booth, and yes...they got some business...not from ME, however!!! Bad weather was all around us, but all we got was a brief sprinkle, adding to the complete success of the event. Keep this in mind for next year...I will!!!
