I'm part of the Sunshine State Marauders car club and we had a club meet down at the Don Garlits Museum a couple months back.. Mr. Garlits showed up and brought us back into his personal workshop and showed us around. What a very down to earth and overall great guy he is. He took at least an hour of his time to show us around and answer questions for us. We all had fun and will definitely be making his museum a regular semi-annual meeting spot. If you're a car guy, and not just into drag racing (he has a whole other building devoted to classic hot rods and muscle cars), then I recommend going to his museum at least once in your life. It's in Ocala off of I-75.
Wish I could have made it to this car show! I'm building a 27 T Roadster myself (just have a rolling chassis so far). But I do like showing my Mercury Marauder whenever I can. They didn't make a lot of them... Glad ya had fun! Post more pics if ya can! |

It was an awesome show. My guess is at least 400 cars. There were tons of Harleys too. Lots of vintage Harleys. One very interesting chopper was a 3 cylinder diesel!!! let me just say, meeting Big Daddy was just great. This guy was a legend 30 years ago. 17 World Championships. I didn't take any pictures. I brought a camera with a dead battery(and a pistol with no mag, but that is another story). I go to car shows almost every weekend, so I see all the bling regularly, so I really don't take pictures anymore. |
