Title: Went to the Bothwell show today
Post by: blown motor on August 12, 2017, 12:17:06 PM
Big show in a small town. Maybe 800 cars? Last years take home share of the 50/50 was over $30,000.
I'm not sure if the radio is correct for an e-body but it has been restored internally by a man whose business is restoring antique automotive clocks and radios.
The black Challenger is not mine.
I think I drummed a little interest for the website also.

Must have been at least 50 cars in the car corral but no e-bodies. Those are keepers.  :yes:

I left just after 1:00 and the 50/50 was already over $9000 each way.
All Mopars are winners.  :smile:

There was Mopars of every description except Cudas. Not one. Swap meet only had two vendors that were strong in Mopar.

Thanks for posting the pictures you took from the show.
I went to Bothwell in 2015 and like you say it's a good size show with a great variety of cars.
I had planed on going this year, but my gas tank has not been fixed yet so I stayed home.
I'll hopefully get there next year.

:fingerscrossed:

Damn! I wish I'd've known you were going Murray as I would've swung over and caught up with you. I was coming home from Grand Bend on Saturday and only remembered that show when I was about 10 miles from home, so I said "POI" and carried on home. My brother-in-law goes all the time and you're not joking about the 50/50 either. The only thing is- you HAVE to be there when it's called. Still, 30k would be a really nice way to get started on that next "project" wouldn't it?  :yes:

We go every year, it's a pretty good show but there are not a lot of ebodies.  I think this year is the most I have seen there.  Same for Mopar stuff at the swap meet.  Hoping to see more next year.  Guess I could add a couple e bodies, we take the truck so we can haul home any goodies we find at the swap meet.
