Dad restores old cars. Spends a lot of time at car shows and swap meets...just thought some of you might enjoy this...there was a LOT more. We couldn't even see it all
Saturday, October 10 – Morris. IL.
Mom & Dad's 1974 Buick Limited. Mad props and much love from the (very few) brothers and Mexicans in attendance...that's Mom at the trunk...

Even weirder, and definitely not shiny. You shoulda seen the interior. The doors and floorboards were totally rotted out and patched with old license plates, street signs, stop signs, etc. Note the rubber rat glued to the fender. Possibly the coolest thing in the whole show.

Finally, someone who shares my affinity for weird shit at car shows! I thought I was the only one. Got any pics of the floorboards in that rat truck?
Sorry, no pics of the interior. Brain fart, or something...
