Posted by: thepinetree on 05/26/2008 12:51 PM
|
Valley Springs, CA...The Valley Springs Veterans Memorial Park was filled with a bountiful crop of classic iron on Saturday. Over 150 cars were displayed in the park. The wet weather did dampen the turnout a bit however. When we spoke with Foothill Classic's Ken Boyd he mentioned that both of the fields were normally completely filled. This show had everything from show ready works of art to some really cool "Old School" rods and everything in between. We tried to take a shot of every entrant who brought out their best for everyone to enjoy. This is a great community event. So mark your calendars for next year for the Sixth Annual Show. You even have time to finish up a restoration project for next years event...
