    Kudos to the Others for running this event today. Originally scheduled for early June, it needed to be postponed until today due to rain. While there was no rain (finally:p) there was a big serving of temperature and humidity. Great to see a number of interesting vehicles and connect with a number of friends.
    Enjoy, leading off with a selection of “Others’” cars.

    You might have caught a glimpse of a celebrity or two there, but there were a number including our own Ct1932ford picking up an award for his oh so well done (yikes needed to fix original post) ‘32 five window

    Matt and his crew do a great job putting on these shows - I always try to make their fall show, the Hot Rod Fall Out, in October - I really don't go to many shows or cruises, but the fall out is a must up here - unfortunately its my understanding there will be some changes after this year.....
