Did the Good Guys here in Scottsdale this weekend. This year the event was limited to 2000 entries but still open to the public. 100 percent mask enforcement meaning masks on in your car, masks while walking even if socially distanced. Did the swap on Friday and Ivan say it was a challenge. It was in the mid 80s by noon. There were some that had face shields. I saw the mask nazis giving them a hard time but had to relent because the entry rules didn’t disallow face shields.
Not much in Mopar stuff with the exception of some early Hemi parts. But that’s ok because it kinda nice being able to do a swap meet.
Saturday I took the GTS. Had to wear a mask while driving to my parking spot. Had to wear a mask while sitting by your car even if nobody around. Cars were spaced 10 feet apart and yes they had a lot of mask nazis enforcing masks. Even witnessed a situation they told guy that was eating that he has to mask between bites. He called them on that and the event officials intervened. Lack of common sense.
Again kinda nice to attend a large event even though wearing a mask was a PIA. Lots of interesting conversations and nice people with a common interest. The yellow GTS seem to draw attention.
Oh, and no I didn’t take a lot of pictures. That would of involved a lot of walking wearing that damn mask, sorry.

One thing I did note and it’s just an observation but there were a lot of rods being driven by the younger crowd, late 20s/thirty somethings. Another thing I noticed was more traditional rods, old school vs the perfume queens. Guy parked next to me who was driving a mid 30s PU told me there’s been a shift in the last several years To more old school. Flat black seems to be the continued flavor of the day.

Thanks for the pictures, John.
I did see several people without masks and I smiled. Why? Because America... Let the revolution begin

You gonna walk up to someone wearing a mask, and curse at 'em...or worse? The more people that wear masks out in public, the SAFER EVERYONE IS. Thanks for the pics, btw....but people who show complete disdain for mask wearing, in the middle of a raging KILLER viral pandemic, shows an utter lack of common sense on their part . Look at it this way....would you rather wear a mask and be on the safe side...or...risk your health, and get covid-19 and possibly have to end up wearing a ventilator tube down your throat? If you use your common sense..the choice is easy.
