On Friday evening Kathy and I took a visit to the final Tri Town Cruizers Car Show of 2009. A few people had told us that it was always a good turnout of cars and we were not disappointed. There were probably around 70 cars in attendance with some really interesting models among them. My favourite was the excellent Ford pick-up truck shown here. It was a shame that we finally got there on the last night but rest assured we will be back in 2010!
On Saturday we took a leisurely drive to the shoreline to the beautiful town of Madison for the British Cars On The Green show. What a treat awaited us with so many Triumph, MG, Austin Healey and Jaguar cars to enjoy in the warm autumn sunshine. It seemed a little odd for me to be seeing cars that I have seen so many times when back in England, but it was cool to talk to a few owners about how I had seen them racing over the years and also how I used to live just 12 miles away from where these fabulous cars were originally built. A real standout for both of us was the superb Triumph TR3 pictured above.
After we left Madison we managed to squeeze in a walk on Meigs Point Beach for a short while before driving to Bristol for the Bristol Car Club’s Saturday Night Cruise. This is show that we always enjoy. There were some great cars on show as always, but for me the highlight was not one but two new 2010 Chevrolet Camaros (pictured), what a brute this car is and how nice it was to actually be able to photograph one with the hood down and not surrounded by onlookers!
