I asked permission Yesterday to go to the local car show. With permission granted I Hauled out the door and away I went as  fast as my little fat legs would let me. While I was there I was looking at a fantastic Red C3 bumper car. I started talking to the guy next to it and he was telling me that the owner was a Friend of his. Anyway the car that he had before this one was burned up in a garage fire. He had pictures that showed nothing but a pile of melted  sl*g. Every thing was gone, nothing could be salvaged. Lighting had hit his garage and started the fire. The guy had a detached garage, And didn't hear any thing, He had slept through the   fire and his garage burning to the ground! They had to scrape the car off the floor. Whats the Moral of this story? You decide.
Also There was a Yellow 76 C3. There to but a never did find the owner. This was another really nice one. The car set kinda high, and I wanted to ask him how it was done. I wasn't about to start crawling around on the ground to look and find out. I coulda got stepped on.
The car show turned out the be a really good one.  
I wanted to take my camera and get some pictures, but I couldn't fine the thing. When I got back home I found it in the last place I looked. Ahhh well, 
Another note, I wanted to go on the Blueridge Parkway Ride Saturday, But the weather was calling for thunderstorms in the mountains and I haven't had time to put in all the nice new weather stripping, had I had purchased
because the dang seals leak on the T- Top.   I'll be sure to make it next time. (I Hope)
