Memories Car Club show May '08

Yet again, the weather was still causing havoc with the local car shows. Earlier during the day there had been some severe weather (thunderstorms & the like), but these cleared up mid-afternoon & the Sun was shining for the second car show of the season at Sunset Hills. The inclement weather again impacted the number of vehicles on display, however the variety of hot rods, musclecars, & other vehicles was still pretty good.

Evil Twin, which was one of my favorite cars from the shows last year (mostly due to having two engines & no front brakes!), was at the show. A closer look revealed that it had been re-built over the winter. The frame, running gear, & some other parts were now painted in purple 'Metalflake' & each engine now sported a supercharger & twin Holley carburetors. Still didn't have any front brakes, though! Assuming that the engines each displace 5.7 litres & are full of speed equipment, it is a good bet that each one will be pushing out at least 500HP, which probably makes for a very quick ride!
