Spring 2017...it's show time !

As any collector car owner will tell you, part of the fun of owning a collectible car is taking it to car shows, renewing friendships with show visitors, and making new acquaintances.
Here in NW Ohio there is no shortage of car shows, so once the month of May rolled around, I started preparing Tillie to "show her stuff".

Any car that has sat idle over six months needs to be inspected for everything from tire pressure to fluid levels, have the battery installed, and of course needs a good cleaning.


Good solid jack stands allow me do a through under body inspection.



I found this "Remove Before Flight" banner during the winter.  It not only looks cool, but show visitors seem to enjoy it, and it does remind me to close the battery cut-off switch before lowering the bonnet (hood) while preparing to leave the show.



Miss Tillie at a local British Car show in line with other TR6s.
There were many fine cars there.
Tillie was able to snag the First in Class award (popular choice)



Ah yes, a happy TR6 owner (me), his car, and his faithful dog !


                               Have a great summer...on the road and off the road.
