The weather is perfect for a Car Show, warm with high clouds. Let's see the cars gathered at Quick Response Restoration in Round Lake.
Here is the question that Eric and I have at every Car Show... When is an older car a Classic, an Antique? Eric found this article on older car terms. It's been helpful for both of us.

I learned something new today.
The 1983 GMC Caballero was
built to compete with the Ford
Ranchero & Chevy El Camino.
This type of vehicle doesn't have a firm classification. Built on a car frame, the Ranchero, El Camino & GMC Caballero have been classified as a car, a hybrid truck, and some state DMVs register this type of vehicle as a truck.

Every Car Show is different and I always learn something new. The best part was watching our nephew, Jason, doing the work he loves, DJing his event.
