Car Show + Hawl

Yesterday I went to another Car Show in Halifax, this one a charity show with all proceeds going to the MS Society.

As usual, I took the opportunity to stop by my favourite Walmart to check out their selection. Just as I got to the diecast aisle and started browsing the GL selection, an employee walked up with a new carton of HW. Not being an idiot (don’t tell my friends and family I said that, they’ll disagree), I immediately asked him if I could open the box and put them on the hooks for him. He was happy to let me do that. It didn’t have much in it, but I did pick up a few; pictures at the end.

First, the show - I don’t remember all of the class winners, but here’s a few that I do remember:

For Tinfoil Hat(iaT.NWAT.), I’ll start with the “Best Special Interest” winner, a Ford Ranchero (I think it was a ‘63).

I originally picked up this Rig Storm just for the glow-in-the-dark wheels for some future wheel swap, but the more I look at it, the more it grows on me.

I picked up these two thinking I possibly had them already, and I do, so I’ll put them in the HWEP container:
