That is awesome, although Kieth might have some trouble getting in and out of his car.

I'm the guy who parks as far away from the store as possible and walks it. When I get back to my car, invariably it seems, someone has parked right next to me. I am in the habit of taking photo ops under such circumstances just to share the lunacy.
Best,

There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb

My buddy Denny (6S1568) just told me that he marveled at how industrious I was of late, by finding the time to build three models of the 1966 Shelby’s that were at MCACN 2018.

“INDUSTRIOUS???” I said.

I told him that I just stumbled onto that model photo in the Shelby Group (on Facebook) and added the captions to it because of the irony that they were the same three cars that happened to be in Chicago last fall!

Serendipity is a beautiful thing.

And why do they all have hubcaps/whitewalls?

Indeed!

Serendipity is one of my favorite words:
“An apparent aptitude for making fortunate discoveries accidentally”

Leith scaled himself down to fit between the cars, you should see him crawl under his car to clean a and detail it
To make it more accurate put a big pile of dirt and mud next to my car
Kieth knows why  :)
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎
