Classics bring back memories

February 3, 2016 By Special to The Laker/Lutz News

The late morning and early afternoon hours of Jan. 19 were devoted to a display of cars and several motorcycles, as we had our first annual automobile and motorcycle show.

There were classics, retro classics, Corvettes, roadsters and convertibles on display. The vehicles sparked memories and people were able to reminisce about days gone by.

Some of the cars were a Henry J, and vintage Chevy’s and Fords.  There was one Ford where the hardtop retracted into the trunk. There also was a Mini Moke with literature placed on the windshield for people to take and read the history of it.

The motorcycles that were present brought back many a memory of riding on one.  The recollection was so vivid that I could actually feel the air blowing through my hair.

The cars — some that I recall and others I just heard about — were fun to look at.

There were 17 cars and 10 cycles on display.

They also had lunch in the community center, and several people took advantage of that.

The host of this special activity was Brian Heidman, and our sincere thanks go out to him.
