First event of 2017 tonight in Stillwater. Place was packed.
Another good night in Stillwater. Both the GT500 and Pantera pictured here are preservation cars with long ownership history. There was also a 91 Testarossa there - in Argento/Bordeaux. Did not get a picture of it unfortunately... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Much more than just pony cars, but I generally get your point. Perhaps you could help sway the numbers with your contribution?
Johnny - any good rules of thumb for participating in this show with the least amount of headaches (e.g., areas to park, show up before 4pm to avoid long lines, etc)? I plan on bringing my ride next week and have never had the opportunity to attend the show. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
If you get there early, you can park in the shade in front of the hotel. The only long line is the one heading north into town. If you take the back roads or come across the bridge from Wisconsin a lot of the traffic issue is avoided.
Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate. So, no pix this time but hoping to catch the August 2nd show.
Saw a brand new FF and a 328 at Cruizin' on the Croix last night. Also spotted a McLaren, among many other interesting rides. As the show coincided with the new river bridge opening - and closing of the old lift bridge, the place was packed. Had to call a convertible into service for the evening for the last ride across the old bridge, then later one of the first crossings of the new bridge...

Last car to cross the bridge - a 1931 Stutz to commemorate the year that it first opened. You can see the new bridge in the background of the last pic... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Light turnout for Italian cars last night. The 550 was it. Thought I would also share a nice picture of the new bridge that I shot from Sunnyside Marina. Other items of interest out for a cruise last night as well... I had originally intended to go to Hot Summer Nights at AutoMotorPlex, but skipped the long drive due to questionable weather. Did anyone go? Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I went to chanhassen on Wednesday. Light turn out in general due to rain and the only exotics I saw was a diablo and a 650s. Sorry, forgot to take pics. Anyone planning on attending Chanhassen or Canterbury this Saturday morning?
9/13. Final show of the year in Stillwater last night. Weather was beautiful, so a convertible was in order. DB7 was the choice. Good attendance and reasonable representation of European cars were present. A black Testarossa that I have not seen before was heading out of town when I rolled in...and a yellow Pantera was there as well...
Bummer, another year and I didn't make it over there. A whooping 7 miles from home! I have to stop letting life get in the way of driving my cars!
