Default Eye-Catching Exhibits......

Unfortunately it was very hard to get a shot without the spectators being part of it, however, it was great to see such a crowd turning out on a very overcast day.

These are awesome! I wish the cars that came to our little town were more like these. Being in the southeastern US, we get more muscle cars than actual classics. These are beauties!

Thank you Jim. It really was quite an occasion, and the number of cars was very impressive. Unfortunately it was very hard to get a shot without the spectators being part of it, however, it was great to see such a crowd turning out on a very overcast day.

Thankyou for your comment. Yes I agree it would have been better without the spectators in each shot, which prompted me to put an explanation in the foreword. Your feedback is much appreciated.
