American Reflections Car Show, Moxee, WA

Post by mdmead »

Last weekend we hit the local car show in Moxee, WA. The weather was really iffy and I expected the turnout to be low. I was wrong. I didn't have my other memory card with me, so this is less than half of the attendees. (Bear with me, some of these have been seen in my previous posts.)

Ya gotta love a V-8 Vega!

Dad (and mom) had a '57 Ford when I was a baby. I'd love to have this Ranchero. Oh so sweet!

I'm not sure what the owner is going for with this build but I'm diggin' it!
Image

Image

Not sure why this was there...

I'm a sucker for 2-stroke street bikes. (There were several Harleys and this was the only thing worth my digital bytes!)

I see this Austin Healey around and at many shows and I drool every time. What I would give to park this in my garage!

This looked a lot more interesting until I figured out it was a replica!

Not quite as cool as a Classic Bronco, but damn sweeeeeet!

hey thanks for posting all these!

any idea what the blue #115 is? I like old sportscars but dont recognise that one.

my favorite is the old ford truck with the steel drum in back (what is that for?) but that wagon with the IROC rims is nice I agree.

some of the rat rods look allright but others seem to defeat the purpose with all the graphics and new paint LOL

oh my, that was sweeeet. :bounce: must be a billion dollars worth of rolling stock there. - the work that went into those rides just blows my mind.
'89 Astro, 4.3L, TBI. Minor intake and exhaust mods. Rebuilt 700R4 trans (by me). Corvette servo, 0.5" boost valve, police grade 1-2 accumulator spring (shifts fast and solid). B&M stacked plate trans cooler. Bilstein shocks. Belltech sway bars front and back. New head unit, speakers and subwoofer. Needs paint and a new headliner.

name's Steve
I can't remember all I've forgotten about that....
