Event Coverage : Hot August Nights or Checking Another One Off My Bucket List!
Hello Everyone,
I just returned home from being in Reno since last Tuesday & the Hot August Nights Show was amazing! It had been on my bucket list for years, so when a gentleman who owns an OT vehicle that had been invited to participate in the prestigious Hot August Nights Cup competition against 39 others inside the Reno Ballroom contracted me to transport his vehicle out & back, I jumped at the chance. His car won overall Best of Show @ Detroit this year & in 2016 won GMs Best of Design @ SEMA. As a transporter, this is another feather in my cap to be trusted transporting something this special back & forth. There was no less than 6 outside "Show & Shines" going on at different casinos every day. Each one had between 400 & 1000 cars, so lots of walking & gauking! I managed to get to 4 of them. The downtown Reno one was closest to my hotel, so I went to that one every day. The night time cruises under the arch were also great. I took a bunch of pictures & will post a few of the best Pontiacs in attendance. Only one picture will be OT & that is the 69 Camaro that I transported to the show. I plan on taking one of my cars out for a future show. I had an absolute blast! I recommend this show to any of my fellow car guys!!!!! One of my favorites was the 57 Pontiac, as I have one here I am wanting to do a full restoration on!
