I attended the Ideal Classic Cars & Coffee Saturday Morning. It was a beautiful morning but a chill was in the air evidenced by the slow trickle-in of the cars. But they did come and by 9am there was plenty of gorgeous metal in the parking lot next to the awesome museum. What a great morning, with great cars!

The show was sponsored by AACA of Venice:

An item of interest: 

      Harry Mintz putting the last minute touch to his 1955 Nash Statesman, a Swamp Cooler. 

I never heard of these devices before and found it very interesting. They were an add-on accessory that used water- evaporation from a wet cloth, directing the cooler air into the car interior to provide a basic form of air conditioning.

 * Shine of the Show is judge on two factors:

* How well the car is detailed

• * How photogenic the car or truck is
