Default Things you don't expect at a car show

Like a P-51 Mustang.

I made a parts-run this weekend and stumbled upon a car-show combined with an air-show. What a great idea! bi-planes, fighters, sky divers, jet engine remote control models, etc. all flying above the antique car-show on the ground.

Here is a link to a video of the P-51 with audio

and a link to still pictures of the show:

There were'nt a lot of Pontiacs but a great show nonetheless.

Sounds like the only thing missing were bi-women!

Sounds like a cool combo. P51 are like the AC Cobra of planes.

I think they should combine muscle car shows with John Deere shows, serve lots of alcohol, and see what happens....

While showing my Ranchero Tuesday night in Waterloo, NY, I was intrigued by a restored John Deere R (diesel, about '52 vintage) that was displayed. 416 c.i. from only two cylinders!
