Spend four hours this morning at the Goodguy's Northwest Nationals. I could have spent four days. . . There were some truly amazing machines on display. C&C welcomed and encouraged. If I get the chance, I'll be heading back on Sunday for more.

First up, a 1963 Chevy Impala SS with a 425 horse 409.

# 4 isn't looking very sharp, but that looks like it's a good show! One Fine 409 Now this will be going around in my head all day...
She's real fine my 409
She's real fine my 409
My 409
Well I saved my pennies and I saved my dimes
(Giddy up giddy up 409)
For I knew there would be a time
(Giddy up giddy up 409)...

That song was running through my mind the whole time I was shooting this car. :lol:

I was trying to get the badge in the reflection of the wheel of the car next to it. Didn't work out as well as I'd hoped, but it was as close as I could get.

I would have loved to have been there with more favorable lighting -- but I only had four hours, from 09:00 to 13:00. No where near enough time to even walk quickly past all the cars there, let alone shoot or even give them the time they deserved.

I'll post some more favorites soon.
