42 Annual Dunkirk Automotive Flea
Market Car Corral Car Show
Dunkirk, NY Chautauqua County Fairgrounds
Hosted by Chautauqua Lake Region AACA
Opened Futurliner for display at 8:00 AM. Day was partially
cloudy with a light breeze.
Saturday, May 22 - Delayed opening Futurliner at 8:30 AM due
to overcast windy conditions. Waited to see if weather improved
before opening light bar. Eventually opened light bar and about
thirty minutes later it rained and blew so hard the stage area
became soaked before we could close everything up. Rain continued
about one hour. We had been able to set up the souvenir tables
inside a building at the forward end of the Futurliner and
during the rain.
Light rain continued off and on all the remainder of the day.
The weather did finally stabilize in the afternoon to just windy
conditions without rain.
Sunday, May 23 - Opened Futurliner at 8:00 AM. Beautiful warm
sunny day with some clouds in the sky. The car show started
about 10:00 AM and lasted until 3:00 PM. We closed up the Futurliner
and had it loaded on the trailer heading back to Grand Rapids by
4:30PM. |
The Futurliner arrives at the 42nd Annual Dunkirk, NY Flea Market &
Car Corral show at the Chautauqua County Fairgrounds. Our hosts were
the Chautauqua Lake Region Antique Automobile Club. |
It takes a number of volunteers and a few hours time to clean off
all of the road grime prior to show-time. |
We had three different setups at Dunkirk during the time we were
there. This one on the edge of a field. |
This one in front of a building. |
And this one, on an angle in front of the building. |
Show-time is over, and the Futurliner is off to it's next
destination. |
