It was a beautiful day in the community of Bowness for the Bowness Auto Parts 20th annual show and shine.

Torrington – Aug 24, 2024 – 44 photos
I look forward to the Torrington show, not only for the cars, but it's always fun to take a walk down memory lane with Paul DeVos, owner of Old School Autworx and organizer of the show. Paul and I were both racing stock cars at Race City Speedway back in the nineties. There were a few standouts at the car show including a rare1969 Dodge Daytona with signatures from notable … [Read more...] about Torrington – Aug 24, 2024 – 44 photos

Calgary – The Edward – Aug 18, 2024 – 37 photos
This is a remarkable location for a classic car show with the historic sandstone King Edward school as the centrepiece.

Ford and Chrysler
The weather was perfect and the cars were spectacular, but a chance encounter made the day even more fascinating. What are the odds of running into a woman named Victoria while looking at a 56 Ford Fairlane Victoria? It happened today at the Calgary Thunderbird Club's all-Ford Show and Shine. Victoria was gracious enough(with some encouragement from her husband) to let me snap … [Read more...] about Ford and Chrysler
