Default Beach and school finds

It was slim pickings while on vacation in Biloxi, Ms. for cruisin the coast but the weather was nice and had plenty of classics cars to look at. There were 2 cops I kept meeting at the cruise in fuctions that came up to me and wanted to look under the hood. They got a kick out of a switch I had on the dash with "Obnoxious on demand" for my electric exhaust cutouts. They voted my car most wanted to be on chase with. LOL. I guess you had to be there.

Also in pic's are a 2 hr. hunt at local school. Total clad for beach and school was $3.11.

Did you take the police up on their offer . Maybe you can post a pic of the car sometime?

Nice finds for 2 hours. What are all those metal things, looks like the redder one on the right has the word "chase" on it, maybe an omen?

LOL I didn't take them up on there offer but they had there hands full that week. The metal things have something to do with the old roof on the school. they just changed it and now these things are all over the school yard.
