Car Show Results: Street Was Fun On Oct. 21

Chrome shined, colors and shapes dazzled and soothed, and hood ornaments pointed to a future as bright as Sunday's late-morning light.

The crowd sauntered over grass deep as any shag carpeting on the Town Hall lawn at the second annual Swampscott Classic Car Show.

Powerful machines of glass, steel and rubber sat among quiet walkers recalling what a car could do in the quarter mile or how long it took it to go from 0 to 60 or the kid in high school who drove one just like it.

Visitors lingered and maybe thought about time, transporting themselves however fleetingly to bygone eras.

They eyed the cars' lines, poked their heads through open windows to check out the odometer and speedometer, and imagined themselves behind the wheel.

Recreation Director Danielle Strauss said about 110 cars were on display, not bad considering it was a rain date and there were other car shows in the area on Sunday.
