[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 17024169, member: 6727"] Back in the period 1994 - 2005, I regularly did car shows. I remember having a lot of fun at Super Chevy Shows (best one was at New England Dragway) and multiple all day Mustang shows. I was always paranoid about people getting too close to my cars (with swinging pocketbooks and shoulder bags, long key chains, young kids rubbing up against the cars, people slobbering their foods while ogling the cars, etc. I (and most other car owners) would bring chairs and try to spend as much time as possible sitting by our cars. I found that spectators were generally better around the cars with owners sitting nearby vs. cars with nobody around. When I did bring one of my cars to a car show, I always had my "cleaning kit" with microfiber towels, glass cleaner, rubber tire glaze, spray water bottle, and detailer spray. Too often I'd find fingerprints had mysteriously jumped onto my paint and I'd have to whisk them away. Since then, I don't think I've gone to any all day car shows. I, too, now get bored rather quickly, so going to the occasional local car cruise satisfies my gear head lust. Actually, car shows around here (the all day ones) are kind of rare now. It's isn't, in general, close to being what it used to be back in those 1994-2005 days. [/QUOTE]
