Well as most of you know i went to the police car owners of America convention last week and i had one of the best times of my life. this years convention was in Detroit Michigan (motor city usa) In this journal i am going to tell you all about the 3 days of the convention.
Day 1:
1.)all 30 police car drove to the G.M Heritage center. the g.m heritage center is not open to the public so it was a really big deal to even be able to get in the door. Inside they had some of the best cars i have ever seen and yes i did get pictures and yes i will post them. any way they had some concept cars and lots of cars that were the first and or last every made. over all a great experience
2.) the rest of the day we went around to other museums like the fire house museum and a few others that i cant remember the name of but i did get pictures.
3.) lastly we went to a members house who is a mopar collector and had a car show and bar-b-Q at his house. he had some great car he even had 2 wing car ( Plymouth superbird for those who don't know muscle cars here is a link [link])
overall i would say he had over 1 million dollars of car. i got pics too i think i took 150 picture that day.
Day 2:
1.) on day two we all got in are cars and drove to Canada. it was a great time while we were there we toured the factory were the Ford crown victoria is built. it was cool but i am a Chevy guy so is was just o.k. The thing that i thought was cool was when we had a car show in Canada. the way people really loved my car made me feel great to own it.
2.) on the way back to the u.s we took a ferry and i don't know if you guys have ever noticed but police car are not small cars and to put 12 of these car on one ferry was...well lets just say interesting. it was one of the weirdest thing floating down a river in a 2 ton car have to avoid tankers...i have a picture that is really funny i will post it later.
Day 3.)
1.) the last day we had a judge car show at the Chrysler museum there was about 50 police cars at the show and mine was one of them. i had a great time and got some great pictures.
2.) that night we had the awards banquet. we all got together and ate and had a good time. i won a few door prize which is great. when it came to awards i thought that my car didn't have a chance but it turns out it did my car placed in the top 20 it first show. this may not seem like much but wait to see what cars it beet out. i got a plack for it which i will post a pic of later.
Day 4.)
We had to leave to go home it it was really sad because it felt like i was leaving family behind and i wont see them again till October.
Well thats it i tried to make it as short a possible but it is still kind of long.
See ya
