Okay, I can't quite decide what is my favourite car here. I like the champagne Vette with white coves; on my Bucket list is to own a Corvette of my birth year and that one is pretty close. Love the old bikes and the woodies, too. I'll bet that Pro-Street '66 Acadian (that's a Canadian Nova) is quick!! Nice light car, I'd love to have one with a stroker small-block. The '59 Impala is everything a convertible should be: long, low and RED. But my two faves -- and I can't decide which one I like better -- are the 56 Chevy post or the orange '32 Ford roadster. I'm leaning toward the Deuce.

Thanks for posting these up, Bob, it's a bit of old fart heaven.

Awesome post BOB. That was an impressive meet with a huge selection of some finely modded and restored cars. You got some fantastic shots there.

I don't know what I would choose out of all of those.

The guy called it a swamp cooler. It's a form of air conditioning - there are fan blades inside it, and a water tank. It directs a moistened air stream into the passenger compartment.

I thought it was a rocket launcher.

No kidding guys - there were some really, really nice cars there. Interiors as well as exteriors.

Picky old bastards though - they wouldn't let me get inside with my camera.

I wouldn't have either.

Sweet cars! I love those kind of shows. I am not a fan of yellow cars, but the convertible Challenger is hot.
Thanks for the pics!

Wow, lotsa nice rides Bob.......I've always had a soft spot for the old Rivs, and that 56 '88' brings back some memories of my youth too.... .

Kudos to your friend and his Camaro.....he did a great job.....

I'd have to have the Ford GT tho, if I had my 'druthers......
