  • 2016 Classics On The Green @ New Kent Winery

    Well Folks,
    The Roadster 88971 enjoyed a great day at Classics on the Green.
    This year Classics featured 'Trendsetting Designs in Automotive History'.
    A number of cars were paraded in for the crowd to enjoy.
    One being Chris Overholser's 1957 Speedster.

    Lufteknic made up a display board for the Roadster telling of its restoration and life span history.
    This is how 88971 was presented.

    Roland Peacock's 1957 Outlaw took Class Honors.
    Was I surprised when some time when by and a guy came by and put this blue sign on the windshield.
    'BEST IN SHOW'
    I could have fainted!
    Good Grief!
    The Roadster was the last to roll across the reviewing stand as the award was presented.
    A bottle of New Kent Winery Red with two glasses in a wood case.
    Cool!
    I took this pic after I got back home.

      Congratulations Commander! Wish I could have made it, but a horse event got in the way.
