How cool owning these cars can be....

Let me start off by saying that I'm not one of those guys that are afraid to let others touch and sit in my vehicles. Whenever I'm at a car show, event, or just getting fuel if someone wants to have their photo taken in or beside the cars I let them.
So with that said my children's school was holding a movie night out on the field with one of those big inflatable screens. I thought it would be really cool to have a "Drive-in" experience and raffle off two of my cars so that two lucky families could watch the movie like we use to back in the day. The winners would also have curbside service, and I purchased some original drive-in speakers which did function. Of the families that won, one of them was in their 50's and it was the first time they had watched a movie in a car as a couple since they were married. The other family had elementary school kids and they sat in the front seat while the parents sat in the back. Since it was a family event the grown-ups behaved themselves. We collected over $200.00 which was donated back to the teachers. Today at church (since my children do go to a church school) they were already talking about doing it again. The cars, carhops, and speakers were a big hit. Here are some photo's of the set up. Enjoy.....
