Keeping up appearances

Been a while since we've posted a blog....but it's been busy!

During the past month we've made some appearances at local car events, includung GTO night at the Wexford Starlite Car Cruise as well as Carfest at the BeaveRun Motorsports Complex. We spoke with a number of people at each of these events. Thanks to everyone who stopped by.

Our next big appearance will be on Saturday/Sunday, July 18/19 at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix in Pittsburgh's Schenley Park. If you've a car lover and have never been to this event, you are truly missing out. Watching the vintage racers make their way around the Schenley Park racecource is in itself a treat, but combined with the car shows and other events and it's almost a religious experience. BMW is the marque of the year this year, but that won't stop hundreds of cars of every sort of marque from being on display. British cars - Lotus's, Rolls-Royce's, Triumph, Jaguar, Austin, MG and more. Italian cars - can you say Maserati, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Alfa-Romeo to name a few...German cars - Mercedes=Benz, Porche, Audo, BMW, Volkswagen and more.....and then there are the American cars and hot rod.

Best of all, it's FREE (small donation for parking). If you can make it to the Pittsburgh area in mid-July, we encourage you to "come on down".

We'll have our dislay in the vendor area. We look forward to seeing you.

Keeping up appearances

Now that summer has finally arrived here in Western PA. car show/cruise season is in full swing and we're gearing up to make some "personal" appearances at a few events. We've already turned up at the weekly Starlite Car Cruise and this coming Friday will be no exception as we'll be on hand for GTO/Pontiac night. We plan to hang out with Gerry Kerna's award winning '71 GTO. So if you're in the Western, PA area Friday evening feel free to stop by the cruise and say hi. On Saturday and Sunday we're planning to be on hand for the Carfest at the BeaveRun Motorsports Complex. This two day event will feature cruise cars, a special edition of the Flashlight Drags as well as Karting, track tours and much more. So far, the weatherman is predicting sun and upper 70's for the weekend.....perfect. Coming up at the end of the month is "Import Nite" at the Starlite Cruise where we'll be on hand with Bill's Maserati Quattroport....a really cool car.
Check back soon and we'll post an update of our July appearances as well as a progress report on the Morgan, '46 Chevy Truck, the HRG and Bill's Dodge Magnum.
