Concours d'Elegance Auto Show
2007.07.15
Bill restored this car with his father many years ago. It is a 1935 Rolls Royce Phantom II Continental Touring model. He has won honors at several shows including this one.
|
Bill helped the owner restore this beautiful 1935 Packard several years ago - it is also one of the perennial favorites.
|
This gentleman taught Bill how to properly paint historic automobiles. He should know he worked with paint in Detroit years ago and helped develop paint and techniques. This is his Model A and yes he painted it. This car has one of the most beautiful paint jobs at the show. (:
|
Bill helped the owner restore this car. The owner is a vintage car mechnaic. They have traded services over the years.

A friend of mine invited my son and I to visit the Concours d'Elegance Auto Show at Pacific University as guests of his. This is one of the nations major auto shows. Because of limitations of the grounds they can accept only 350 automobiles so it is not easy to get in and the quality of the cars is top notch. We really enjoyed out selves and gave my camera somewhat of a workout. To prevent overload, I will release the photos over several days. These first ones have to do with my friend Bill and the cars he has worked on that were on display at the show.
