Aesthetic Finishers Cruise-in and Car Show in Piqua OH | The De Tomaso Forums

rlee63a4Member

I take my Pantera to quite a few local cruise-ins mostly and some car shows and just had to share this experience. Yesterday my Pantera and I went to Aesthetic Finishers (a powder and ceramic coating company) Cruise-in and Car Show in Piqua OH because 1) it’s free, 2) I get a free t-shirt and goodie bag because I pre-registered, 3) I get to tell people about the Pantera, and 4) I get to see a whole bunch of very, very cool cars. Over 1500 cars showed up for the show, and ESPN was there to shoot some Mother’s Car Polish series footage. Even the Batmobile was there. They gave Best of Show to a recently-restored and very awesome Hemi ‘cuda probably worth on the order of $500,000 plus and 1st Place winner at the Mopar Nationals. They also gave out trophies to the Top 25 cars out of those other 1500 cars, and my Pantera (a daily driver, weather permitting) got one of those trophies!!! I was shocked given the raw number of cars and how many cars were trailer queens, professionally-built hot rods, and restored muscle cars. Here are a few photos from the show.

Enjoy,
