Calling All Rodders,

Today was back to school days for me. My Nephew Ben Powers was presenting his class project and it was about cars! It was a nice afternoon and it is great to know that the love of cars is being passed down through the ages.

 We all lined up at the Fort Le Bouef Foot Ball field, Ben's Class came down to learn about the racing through the years of performance cars. Ben did an awesome job at explaining the changes through the years in motors and the reasons for some of these changes. He was well informed and capture his audience attention with his great demonstration. He had asked a few of us to display our cars for him as he did his presentation. The title of his report was , "Chevy racing through the years." Ben had arranged to have a 1979 Chevy Corvette owned by Peter Shaffer, a 1968 Dodge Coronet owned by Rex Diemer, ( The Mopar car was for comparison of different muscle cars through the years not only those made by Chevrolet) a 1969 Chevy Truck owned by Lance Proctor, and a 1970 Chevy Nova owned by Colleen Surrena. Ben also had on display various motor parts for demonstration.

The class seemed very interested in his demonstration. We even had a few passer bys stop in to see what was going on. Great job Ben ! Thanks for letting us be a part of your demonstration.
