Straight Out Of The Camera Sunday

A few more pictures from the Classic Car show for Straight out of the Camera Sunday.
This car show was on all Weekend at The Tradex in Abbotsford, B.C.
The A +W Car. My hubby would drive the next car home if someone threw him the keys!!
And I would drive this next one home if someone handed me the keys!
I would not turn down the next car either. Why can't cars look like these ones these days?
This car looks like the kind of cars I remember my Uncle Norman driving around in so many years ago.
My friend Greg had a truck like the next picture, but it sure did not look like this one. His was quite a bit beat up!
And one more picture of the Batmobile for you! (See previous post, I think two posts down)

Classic Car Show, the Batmobile.

My hubby is a huge Batman fan. He is also a collector of all things Batman so finding out that the first original Batmobile and its creator, George Barris was coming to town to the Classic Car Show was awesome news to him.
Even more awesome for him was to be able to provide the in-show security for the Batmobile and George Barris during the entire three day show. It is like a huge dream come true for him. He gets some of his collectible cars personally autographed by George Barris and gets to sit in the Batmobile among other things.
It is different to see the car in person than on the screen of the TV. My hubby also has all the shows, movies and cartoons, and comics and graphic novels as well.

The details on the Batmobile were quite detailed, even down to small bats on the hubs of all the wheels.
My hubby was so excited to be the one doing security he togged out his uniform to reflect the things he was providing security for. He sewed some of his patch collection onto his uniform shirts!
The newest Batman, in a few years or more.
I will post some more pictures of other cars at the car show in later posts.
It was not all about Batman after all!!
