Minnetonka Mn Drive In and Mayer MN Classic Cars

All,

Hope your home Air Conditioners are working – my outdoor unit fan bit the dust!

There are a few items of interest here and some recent photos for your viewing pleasure. First lots of interesting Cars lately especially at the Minnetonka Drive – In four gorgeous Woodies Last Evening Three parked together one quite unusual. Hope I can send the photos I want as the my pics are a large format. Any suggestion how I can send a lot of pics?

1949 Buick Super, 1941 Plymouth Super Deluxe, 1950 Rolls Royce with a Coach Builder Woody added on and an Oldsmobile around a 1949 – didn’t get the year info.

Then the 1968 F-17 Winnebago at the Minnetonka Drive–In last week very aerodynamic, like a brick but interesting in process of interior restoration, a 1937 Chev Master 2 door all original with only 58,800 miles at the Mayer Car Show and C/20  Chev ¾ ton pickup find 114,000 with a great natural patina at the 7-Hi Car Show that the owner had been looking for!

Quick note here for those who attend my Car Show at Catholic Elder Car in Nordeast Mpls – I think about the eight year. The tentative date is July 17^th – working with a new Director of Recreation Renee as Scott moved to Florida. Someone had let me know they got a phone call that the date was moved to a Friday in June, no - always Wednesdays around noon and includes lunch not sure what that call was about?

Last but not Least Excelsior has the Art on the Lake June 8-9 which will be held on Water St in town due to the Ice Castle Event this winter kinda took its toll on the turf near the Band Shell – will be a traffic nightmare but is a nice event.

I hope a few of my Pics are in the email for your viewing pleasure!

Stay Cool,

Rick Meyer

May 28 to June 2nd 2019 Collector Car Shows Minneapolis area

All,

Rain-outs continue but at least Saturday and Sunday we were able to see the sun felt awful good! The pics I have included are my favorites from the Minnetonka Drive-In and the Chanhassen AutoPlex Military Appreciation Day. 

The Minnetonka Drive-In had only about 25 - 30 Cars but was fun and the AutoPlex was in full swing, lots of Cars, Military Appreciation Day, Fly Over - Gotta Love the sound of those Prop Planes, Color Guard, and Flag Raising Ceremony plus Military Vehicles - nice. 

Enjoy this weekend Sunday has a number of Shows to choose from. Here's a hint if you shoot Pics with a digital Camera as I do, always carry extra batteries!
