Nice pictures Dave. Old car shows are Fun! I would rather see the old cars and trucks be saved, whether it's low end ROADKILL style or high end like all of the cars and trucks that were at the show.
Save the old cars and trucks, not crush them. Quote from Freiburger. "Don't Get It Right, Just Get It Running."

Love the old muscle cars, trucks and sedans.

I love going to these shows and was glad they were all classics. I wasn't expecting it to be this large or have as many really nice vehicles there. It brings back a lot of memories and it's amazing how far we've come in technology and safety since then. Heck, in most vehicles you only had a lap seat belt and that huge steering wheel right in your face. lol

What was also nice is that they had them all separated by model so they weren't intermixed all over the parking lots. All the Vettes were on the far left side of the entrance with the Camaros across from them, Nova, Trucks, etc... then all the really old classics were off to the far right side.

They had these signs at the beginning of every row.

Nice pics. I love those old cars. I have owned 6 Mustangs over the years and I have been hinting to my wife that I want to buy another one. I have been without a Mustang since 2019 and that is too long - LOL! The only thing that has been stopping me if the thought of kicking my Ranger out of the garage.

Now you'll have to get a house with bigger garage. lol

I've always loved the older Camaros ('67-'69) and had a '69 Camaro back in high school. But being a broke teen I never had the money to properly restore it (it really wasn't too bad back then either) and would love one now. I do keep my eye out for one that's not in need of too much restoration but most are usually too expensive now, maybe one day one will come along. Until then it's fun looking at them and seeing all the talented people who've done a great job restoring them.

Yes, the older cars are way too expensive. The cars I regularly do searches for the 2003-2004 Mach 1 Mustang and late 90's-2002 Z28 or Trans Am. My First two v8 Mustangs were Fox bodies and I would consider one of those too.

After all the renovations my wife did to the house, getting a house with a larger garage is not going to happen - LOL! I would need a 4-car garage. She tells me the garage is cluttered, yet it holds the Ranger, her SUV, a 10' utility trailer and a Polaris RZR.

I'd prefer a smaller house (1,200-1,350 sq ft) and a large garage.

This would be my ideal garage full HVAC and a guest apt upstairs along with a poker room! lol

We were talking with this gentleman for over an hour about his build. He has a binder with pictures from start to finish and told us the story on how he restored it. He did everything himself (except the paint) and it took 15 years to complete and said the parts alone were over $150,000. There’s a roll bar integrated into the headliner so he could mount the seatbelt too it and the whole interior and seats were all custom done (by him) from a 2002 Cadillac.

Nice stereo and monitor setup in the trunk. There’s a dvd player inside that plays movies through the monitor.

Notice the power windows ever for the wing windows.
