Re: Hot August Nights, 2014
Not a fan of big crowds, waiting in line for EVERYTHING, etc.
I tend to find the whole HAN scene a bit fictionalized, as while sports cars are not actually forbidden they are certainly not encouraged. But if you look at the reality of the 50's and 60's sports-cars outnumbered "Muscle cars" (Which did not really exist as a factory type hype prior to '64) and "Hot-Rod's" by a wide margin. Look at old photos from the day and they will prove my point. I did get rid of a few things at the HAN swap meet on Saturday. Nothing valuable but it did clear some space for me. |
