| Entered the Caprice in a local car show yesterday (Sat). Approx. 50 cars there of all kinds which were placed in pre 1988 antiques or 1989 and newer for the classic category. Took home a decent 2nd place trophy. Considering it's only been back on the road for about two weeks, and had some significant competition that's not too bad. One non attendee asked if he could buy my rear window as his '95 Roadmaster's was broken. I gave him my last business card for this site and the name of a local salvage yard that should have one. A LOT of people seemed to really like the wagon and once they saw the third row seat got big smiles remembering days long ago when they sat back there in their parents wagons (of different makes/models).

| Congrats Steve! One of my favorite things about these cars is the stories you hear when folks look at them...and of course all the smiles these make! | |

| Thanks! Might be a couple local car get together events in the next week or two, but no actual shows since it's getting too damn cold already. My daily driver '94 Regal developed a top end noise last night so the Caprice will be what gets me around for a while. Hate to think about road chips when using it as a daily driver but better the Caprice than using my motorcycle!
