Ok my car has been labelled a garage Queen by a few, and that’s fine by me. But this time I was very proud to have it used to make a Prom Queens night out come to fruition.
My daughter has always wanted to go to her prom in ‘dads old car’ as the 280ZX is affectionately know. But that, let alone her getting to her Prom looked to be in serious question at the beginning of the year.
My daughter has been battling cancer since the beginning of February and is still undergoing treatment. It’s been her goal throughout her illness to go to her Prom and last night she achieved that goal. So it was very poignant I could take her in my ‘old’ car after all.
The 280Zx really did steal the show when we arrived out side the Hotel in Bristol. The Ferrari’s, BMWs and Bentleys in attendance are well known to the younger generation, but they didn’t have a clue about the ZX and it generated a lot of genuine interest.
But the real star of the night I am very proud to say, that after all the hardship my daughter has had to endure, she was voted Prom Queen which just made the night. Oh the trip in dads old car wasn’t so bad neither.
