Run 4 the Sun Cruise to Ocala

I wrote this article last year for our club newsletter. I thought I would put it out here for all to see. It is a great show, and a lot of fun. The Mopars are the best, they have a great swap meet, car corral and just a great show. I am going again this year and would love to see more people from other Mopar clubs there.

If you have never been to a Vintage event you are in for a pleasant surprise. You will see one of a kind museum cars that come out and race hard. This LeMans Rothmans Porsche was wrecked after I shot this photo. The car is so valuable it will be rebuilt.


The cars that the owners and crews bring in as support vehicles are a show onto themselves. This cadillac drove down from Virginia.…

In Paradise at Paradise Dragstrip "The short story of me"

Figured I would throw out a lil' info about me and what I love to do. I started my motorhead years at the young age of 5 when I worked on my brothers Ford truck , well...I slipped the fan belt on anyhow haha. And eventually got the smell of burnt rubber later on in his roller motor fox body...better than a roller coaster at the time lol . As the years passed I purchased my 1st real car, a 1965 Ford Fairlane 500 with a 289, that I punished beyond belief when I first got her...considering it…

Judging the Survivor By Mike Thies

Judging the Survivor

By Mike Thies

Sooner or later every judge faces this class. A freshly restored car with flawless paint sits next to an original car with faded lacquer, a worn driver's seat, and sixty years of honest use on it.

A Bite of History: Unicorn Restorations, the 1974 Camaro Z28

by Mike Thies

At any good car show, you will find 1957 Chevys in every form: survivors, frame-off restorations, and restomods. What you will rarely find is a 1958. That tells you something about the collector market. Not every year of a popular model becomes a true collectible.
