Event Coverage My sons first "GUY TRIP" Corvette Museum and Hot Rod Reunion Bowling Green

It was my sons first real guy trip this past weekend. We left on Thursday and went to Bowling Green for the Museum and the Reunion. We met up with some friends when we got there and also my brother in law and father in law who were reunion"virgins" came friday.

here are some pics from the museum.

The Model car display was awesome.
The two guys with my son were friends of mine and I think they enjoyed my sons reactions to the whole experience as much as I did.

Here are some from the reunion
My son was amazed as was I. Instead of the " guy trip " we should have called it the " Hotter than the gates of hell tour " but at least it did not flood while we were there.

My son said "I am coming back next year just you try and stop me because I am one of the guys" . My father and brother in laws said "us to".

All in all it was a good time again this year.

we will be back for more next year. And to all you hambers I met this year and who bought magazines from me at the holiday inn thanks and I will see you next year

I woould like to thank Barbara Hamilton and Mike Cook and Joe Mondello they were 3 of the nicest people you would like to meet.
They took time to make my little man feel special.

 

In that one picture, your in laws dont look too happy But your son looks like hes having a blast Looks like it was a fun trip

I've been to both places....well worth the trip.Great guy trip for your son. Giz'

 

Great pics...We were there too. Glad you went to the museum too. Next trip to BG visit the Corvette plant for a tour.

 

Yep, the factory tour is interesting, on the rare week that they're open. Don't know what it is about the place, but BG seems to have 2 kinds of weather: hotter'n hell and/or raining. thanks for the pics!

Well now you went and did it, you ruined him for life
Nice photos, a life long memory!
We have friends that have been there, they too had a great time,
someday I'll get my butt there. Good to see you both had a BIG TIME!

 

Thanks guys, I am real proud of my family. Cars and Bikes are a big part of who I am but my hellions are my chance to live on even after I am gone. One day one or both of them will hopefully stop and think "this is something dad taught me the old man was pretty damn cool" then maybe they can teach thier kids if I am not around...
Hopefully I will get a chance to be a good Papaw. My Papaw is 82 years old and still comes and plays with my kids Monday thru Friday for about 2 hours a day he is a pretty cool old fart.

 

cool pics thanks for posting. keep taking your kids to the car shows they will always remember it I started taking my son when he was little and he is now 26 and still goes to every one i go to. you even snapped a pic of him and i cruising in my 53 chevy. thanks

 

I liked your car. when you drove by us my son gave you the "thumbs up" and said "nice car"

 

I couldnt make it,but out of all the cars in diffrent picture threads I have seen so far this one is my favorite.

Looks like your son liked the nova

 

I think he is going to have the same problem I do.

I like everything.

 

I took my 14 yr old son and this our first HHR. We were talking about what his first set of wheels might be on the way there. He wanted a Chevy 4x4 before we got there......now he wants a real hotrod.....and he wants to build it himself with a little help from dad of course. I told him the girls at school probably wouldn't want to be seen in an "old car" and he said he wouldn't date a girl that isn't into old cars. Now he has the bug worse than I ever had..........I'm so damn proud of him!!

 

It is awesome .
I really enjoyed watching him during the cacklefest.

The look on his face was saying "holy crap"!!

 

THE COUPE WAS AWESOME.
I HAVE A FEW FAVORITES AS WELL

I REALLY LIKED THIS RIG




THIS IS MY FAVORITE NON SUPER FAMOUS CAR





MY FAVORITE STREET ROD

FAVORITE FAMOUS CAR WAS A TOSSUP BETWEEN THE 554 COUPE OR MAZMANIANS VETTE OR THE STONE WOODS AND COOK CARS

 

Very cool, thanks for sharing. No matter how many more trips you make together, you will both aways remember this one.

 

Thank you for bringing your son. We have got to pass this along to the next generation and that is how you do it. I grew up going to shows with my Dad and that is what got me hooked. Always like it when the kids are interested in the cars and he was. He really seemed to enjoy getting in our dragster and that is what makes the weekend for me as a owner.

 

he had a blast. Sunday Morning he said can we go back and sit in your friends dragster? I said ok but on the way there he decided his legs were tired and he was ready to go..

Thanks we will look you up again next year

 

Looks like you guys had a blast, even if it was hotter than Hell! Thanks for the pic's.
