These are from the Chattanooga World of Wheels this weekend. The most impressive thing was the Mustang in the pictures #60-63. The owner rebuilt it from being a rust bucket to show form in 2 months to surprise his wife for Christmas. Then he surprised her again by entering it in the show. Enjoy the rest of the pictures lots of Phony and other muscle cars.

That was a nice assembly of cool cars. A little bit there for everyone, from firetrucks to hotrods.

The 2 rear tired bike is interesting. The paint on all of the bikes is phenominal.

What president used that Limo?

1970 is my favorite year of the early Mustangs.

It was a pretty good mix of cars/bikes/other with a good showing of local cars.
There wasn't a lot of info on the Lincoln only a Department of Defense decal on it and some photos of John McNamara. Sometimes the history of a few of those show cars are a little fuzzy. I was under the impression that since Kennedy the cars that were taken out of service were destroyed.
Most of the bikes were from two shops in the area and I was very impressed with the paintwork on all of them. I felt they were good enough to compete with anyone in the states.

i was there last year with my dad, he entered his 1957 ford fairlane 500 hardtop and got 2nd in class, didnt make it to this years but can assume there was some amazing cars there since its a car show based on quality ONLY. The only thing that ruined us for a repeat show was that the car that beat us out was a 1955 Chevy Bel-Air that had a rust-pitted front & rear bumpers ( can ya say favoritism?)

That's a shame. The trade off for not having the big boys show up is you get more local cars.....and a local slant in the voting. I was surprised at how many cars at the show were daily drivers. In the past a license plate was nowhere to be found on any of the cars.
