Frog Follies Part 2.....

Part 1 of my Frog Follies post began here:
Naturally, there were frogs at the Frog Follies.... This car went overboard with them!
Some clever signs.....

8 MY IRA........I bet it did, too!

Hmmmmm.......


This was cute.....for the kiddies!

I love the bird hood ornament on this one with the flags.

Hard to believe that some of these start out like this!!!!
I asked Mike if he wanted one when he retired. He said, no. (good!)

We both loved this one. Mike took this shot and some of the following ones.

Colorful....pink and purple

This old Rolls Royce was another one we both liked
Front....

.....back......great trunk! I liked all the mirrors and glass and took many photos of them.

Another one that we both really liked a lot. The paint job on this one was just "wow"!

Flames of all colors....

....always a popular decoration....

......I liked this one's color combo

...But this was pretty, too!

....more traditional yellow and orange :-)
OK.....enough cars. Tomorrow I will get back to nature if it's not too hot.

Wow, wonderful cars and pictures. This was a very colourful event.

Mary said...

Klaus: I figured that all the men would appreciate that sign :-) My husband certainly did.

Eve: Thanks! It was a fun event to go to.

Ann: Yes, it was very colorful, and that is the part that appeals to me.....all the color and textures and shapes. I barely registered them as actual cars and couldn't name any of them unless they said very plainly what they were :-)

My wife sent your post to me. I just love the cars! Keep them coming! For your readers who want a steady diet of cars, cars, cars, go to http://mikes-show-n-shine.blogspot.com and see more. Again, thanks for showing us these beautiful cars!! Mustang Mike

Wow those are some cool cars.

My husband would love to work on one and fix it up.. I hope he never does, it can get expensive and time consuming. After all, he has to be Papa here at the house for the grandkids. It gives me a break.

Mary said...

Joan: Yeah that sign was pretty funny....wonder how often it might be true!

Mustang Mike: Thanks for stopping by! I sent my husband to your site since he is the car nut of this family. He's more into classic sports cars and anything formula one racing. But we both appreciate these beauties and they come here every year. It's a huge event....4000 cars.

Sandy:I would not even want to think about the expense! Did you notice the price on that junk one? I think it was $7000+ and that is just to start all over and rebuild. I'd love to know what some of them cost finished. I guess everyone needs a hobby :-) I spend my money on fabric and it's much cheaper :-)
