RENO, NV (March23) — This is a very different article as I was unable to attend. Want to give special thanks to Ed Hughes for letting me use his photographs. I’d also suggest people might want to check his Face Book page as he takes great photographs of these events..
With the spring like weather the turn out was good all types of cars and truck. And there were plenty of spectators on hand as well.
As usual several generations were on hand to see. One of them was the classic VW parked next to a Ford Mustang.
Over on another line there were even more cars to admire and some of them had their hoods up. This allows folks to look at their motors.
Next week is usually an off week for Cars & Coffee groups but there will be there things happening, Until then enjoy the good weather and have a safe week.
