2020 Car Show

Yuma, Arizona          High 78 Low 49

Earlier this week we had a lot of wind and it was cold, high 30's but yesterday and today it was the kind of weather we came to Yuma for.

I remember the car show last year and it was cold and windy. Today the sun shone and the weather couldn't have been better. There were a lot of cars with a lot of people viewing them.

The oldest I saw was a 1921 Model T truck. It looked like it was all original, a really nice car.





 There were several cars there that looked a lot like some I have owned in the past. I once owned a 1934 Chev 4 door sedan like one that was in the show except mine never looked as good as the one that was here.




When I was in High School I also had 2 1948 Chevs, one was a 4 door sedan and the other a coupe which at the time was in excellent condition.  Mine was colored grey. The interior on this yellow one looked to be original.


There were lots of other classics here, some of them were really rare.




It's a little hard to tell, but this car has one wheel completely off the ground using hydraulic cylinders.  The trunk was full of pumps and 6 very large 6 volt batteries. The one above also had hydraulics cylinders.

















I was kind of fun seeing all the old  (and some not so old) cars. Most of the rebuilt cars had V-8 engines in them, but some had their original engines and drive trains.

Thanks for visiting.
