Here is what I drove there:

http://img82.imageshack.**/img82/5310/carshow070copyko1.jpg

1965 Chevy Chevelle Malibu Wagon. Weight: 2 tons plus. Stopping power: Drums all around, mechanically operated, 20 years old. Yes, this things take awhile to stop.

Here is what my father brought:

Crisp pictures, clean muscle cars. I think I've hit pure bliss.
 
Thanks for the nice words man. Now just image how much money and time these car represent. There must have been millions of dollars in cars there.
 
And all worth it in my mind. Putting your heart and soul into something you love is a dream come true for all those people.
 
Some more artistic of the photos.

Excellent pictures, and even more excellent cars. Thanks a lot for sharing! Those Cobras look especially drool-worthy. :drool:

No wonder why you like American cars so much. That is fucking sweet. 8)
 
I miss Cali Car shows. The cars here in St. louis are built like shit.

That 54 vette is sex on wheels. I'd nuke germany if it ment I could own (even for a week) a 57 or 58 Fuelie vette.

I'm gonna assume the GT350 is a replica, and if so, atleast it's not an Elenor.

FBC: Not sure if I missed it, but if the camaro is a 67-69 and has anything but a 302 in it, it's either an SS, RS or regular model. edit nevermind, the picture loaded. Though it's not the factory engine in that "z/28" :(
 
Beautiful pictures. Those are all absolutely perfect cars in my eyes, wonderful show of American car heratige.

:drool: :drool: I love Camaros so much :cry:
Too bad I had to move out here, we used to have a nice show like that every May/August in Montana.

When the car arrive it actually had frost on the intake. It is powered by alcohol, not gasoline.
 
Thank you for the photos. I havent been to a classic car show in a decade! Looks like West/East coast car shows have better fare than here in the Midwest; mostly you get mouldy paint faded relics, or cars with Pep Boy accessories.

This is entirely to true, but I think much if has to do with the fact that the majority of Rod shops are in California, people have a bit more money there, and more cars in the midwest are actually home built, rather than by credit card.
