Imperial at C&C today

[patrick66]

The '66 at coffee & cars today. Almost took the '69 D300 flatbed as the skies looked pretty ominous. But I said "screw it!" and took the ragtop out. Glad I did, too! It was a beautiful morning for a drop-top drive!

There were several A- and E-bodies today. My phone kept saying "you're at your limit!", so it was just my car in pics today.

I really wanted to go to C & C this morning, but the weather was bad.

I wish we still had a C & C around here. The local dealership that used to hold them sold to new owners and the new owners don't do it

Start one!

It's not all that hard. Finding a place is the hardest.

A friend of mine and his wife has started three of them. One was at a Wegmans grocery store. That really took off until one of the other stores needed the lot. They moved to another Wegmans were it's going like gangbusters. They started one at a farm type restaurant, but that had some issues, mostly with the owners, so that got dropped. It was way out on the country anyway... Then, they started one this spring at the local park. They had tried before, but COVID got in the way. This one is great for me as it's less than 5 minutes away. It hasn't really taken off and I think bad weather has had something to do with it. It's still a good time and everyone enjoys themselves.

First Cars and Coffee of the year...

How often do the c&c's normally meet? Every week, once a month...?

Most are once a week, generally Saturday morning, but there are ones that meet once a month.

In the OKC metro area, there is at least one every weekend, but the big ones are staggered through the month. First Saturday is at the horse track. Lots of tuner crap, exotics, and loud music. Second Saturday, there are two smaller events. Third Saturday is the one I go to in Midwest City, plus an evening one in Yukon. Fourth Saturday is a crapshoot.

There are quite a few weekly ones at several burger joints, plus every Thursday at Hollywood Corners in Norman. This is a place owned by Toby Keith (RIP). HC is a restaurant and bar with a large outdoor stage, and always has a good turnout.

Thanks for the extra insight.
