I like to see cars that portray the personalities of their owners, I don ' t like to see people fix up their cars just to be hip . It has to say something about that individual! expressed Debbie Ash. When you see some cars in the parking lot, you can guess the type of person that drives it. The souped-VW ' s speak of an organized person that doesn ' t need a lot of bells and lights. The restored cars like the 56 ' Chevy or the ' 60 ' s Mustangs have classic owners. Being a fan of old model cars, I liked to see people take the time to restore them and be proud of owning an older car, confessed Susanne Cambell. One of the things most older cars required was paint. The way people have their LiiJji S iai Mike Al 9 ren . sopho- more, sports a fantastic paint job on his ' 66 Mustang convertible. This car re- flects a style that was as popular then as it is now. 10 • THEME cars painted really appealed to me. It made them unique and different, explained Matt Brandt.

Some students felt these car shows went to far don ' t like what some people did to their cars. It ' s like it was a fashion show, and too many people were in it. Everybody ' s cars were losing their individ- uality because everybody was doing the same thing, con- cluded Mark Wensel. That was the key to success; individual- ity.

Her other love was dolphins. She had a dol- phin picture she painted her- self, a drawing on her letter- man ' s jacket, and a collection of other dolphin articles. Another student with a love for sports was Susanne Campbell, a senior. She was torn between being a player on the Softball team and a member of Arlington ' s basketball team.

It was hard going from one sport to another, because you never had time to yourself , stated Larry Jared, senior.
