TexMets - Sweethearts & Orphans 2008

AMC Ambassador and tan hot rod Nash business coupe.

That's Bob Tarpenning's copper-colored AMC Hornet.

Auburn (didn't catch the year, but I'd guess 1929)

Kaiser Vagabond with rare fold out pickup-style storage area.

1941 Hudson

I love the reflection on the wet brick.

Three Studebakers: Avanti, Commander and Hawk.

Hudson Hornet

AMC Ambassador

It only misted and sprinkled while driving to the show in beautiful downtown Waxahachie, but after lunch at the 1879 Chisolm Trail, a cold front blew in. While I was driving home I passed a digital sign showing the temperature at 38° - it felt every bit of it as I don't have heat in my Met. My Met and I experienced several firsts that day: The longest drive I've taken in it, the coldest weather I've driven in and the wettest weather my Met has seen. By Tuesday, though, you would never have known after I gave her a good bath. My little '58 is good for another show, soon. ~Gaines
