The Langley Cruise-In ... or ... NOT Your Usual Day in the Country

Phenomenal paint jobs

Cool cars


Cars like works of art




Shades of "Christine"

Beautiful grille 
Art Deco paint job

Lush interior




One of my favorites


The toy rat, coming out of the gas tank, caught my eye as we were leaving


   It was a fine, hot day in Langley today. People were out in the thousands, crowded in a few city blocks, to admire the cars. The cars, from all over North America,  were parked along the sides of several closed-off streets.
   My sister Steph came out from Vancouver for a visit, and a tour of the car show. We wandered around for almost three hours, until we were "car-ed out". And this time, she kept an eye on me; the last time we went, we got separated, as I got so absorbed in the cars and taking photos. [Good to have a caring sister.]

  6. I'm with Vinayak, I want to see these in your paintings too. :) Especially that one of the grille that's kind of magenta! How cool would that be?! All those reflections. You must do it.
