Nice show.

I like the red and white 88 the best, and the faux Ghostbusters '67 the least. (Ecto-1 was a 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor conversion ambulance, complete to the gurney racks that held their gear. (Even though the purchased car seen before the in-universe conversion was rigged like a hearse, it had originally been an ambulance.))

Very nice photos. Interesting that you could even have a car show. I thought all of Florida was destroyed by the two hurricanes. At least that's the way the news presents it.

The red and white '62 88 is a low mile original, including paint.
Over 200 cars were registered.
The news always presents the worst damage.
There were big piles of brush beside the roads in places where trees went down however.
I thought the shot of three '63 "turbo" Jetfires in a line, two nearly identical, was really cool.
When do you see even one at a car show?

Damn, I wish I had known I would have gone. I went to a local show at a farmers' market in Dunnellon. It was a small show but a nice day.
