This morning we had out first attempt in our little Podunk at a cars and coffee.

It went off well if you ask me, about 25 interesting cars in all, some of the pics here.

Hoping to grow from here. Thanks to ChandlerGTi for the pics.

Looks like a cool event, though I was hoping that all remaining sets of these wheels had been made into beer cans by now.

Those wheels are prevalent here on most anything they could bolt them to.

That t-bird was AWESOME!

It's for sale for $7500, he has that in the engine and its a Cleveland stroked to 408

I love it as well, so perfectly 80s

That Thunderbird reminds me of an 80s stock car.

No way Woody! I truly bet those 90's-tastic ARE wheels are going to be worth a MINT in 20-30 years!!!

But yeah, I still think they look just as horrible as they did when new also....

FTFY

Other than a couple of the cars, you could say this was 10+ years ago and nobody would be able to argue. A lot of old school styles.

It drove by to get fuel before it pulled in and my brother said it sat like the Bob Glidden cars which makes sense since it was built then and slightly improved up to now.

Stance? Sat? Was sitting? It had that 80s pro street vibe going.

I went to a swap meet today and saw at least three more sets of those awful wheels.

Also: Love the T-Bird.
