Dayton Cars and Coffee 6/24/17

First time at the Dayton Cars and Coffee. Lots of cars and many different makes. Porsche was well represented....and I'm not the best photographer.

My main impression after going to cruise-ins is that the USA cars set know some awfully skilled painters. I've seen better quality paint jobs than anything that comes from a factory.

It is amazing how this event has grown over the past 2 years. I was at the last C&C at The Greene and there was no parking!!! I Haven't been to Austin Landing just yet.

You are correct. Custom cars like street rods have some talented body and paint guys.

I didn't count but I would estimate 300 to 400 cars covering 3 or 4 different parking lot sections.
