The High
Plains Thunderbirds came into being in the spring of 2002 as a result of a
dream of one man, Lon O’Connell, who wanted to share his love of the
Ford Thunderbird with others. Seeing
the promotions for the new ‘02 Thunderbirds in the spring of 2001, Lon
ordered an Inspiration Yellow Thunderbird. His car was one of the first to arrive by rail in Amarillo in
August 16, 2001 but with a factory hold.
After a factory cooling fan repair his car was re-delivered October
9, 2001. Read

The
Chevy Club was started in about 1977.
It was originally a club for 1955, 1956, and 1957 Chevrolets.
Over the years, the club has evolved into one with members owning
many kinds of hotrods, or none at all.
The members just share a love of cars. Read
