Here are a few more pics. I didn't post pics of the G-Bodies at the show since GP403 had a really nice camera there for that and I was just using my phone. I think these are worth posting. Here is a front shot of that old Police car in front of the Motel ruin on the side of Route 66. It was an old Nash....

I just thought this was cool....

Here is a pic of some nice rides at the Street Machine Nationals. I have a thing for 58 Chevys...

Here is a nice Iroc Z that was near the gate. I've always really loved the look of these cars....

This was my favorite Pontiac at the show. I really loved this car. I would take the skirts off of it, if it were my car but it was really cool.....

Love this Pontiac.jpg

Thank you all for taking pics of the event to show what we missed. You all look like one happy group. Wish I was there.
Btw, I dig the body style of that old Nash police car.

Jared, I also like '58 Chevys. I recall back in the day they were considered the red headed step child of Chevys. The body style was pretty unique. In fact, one of my all time favorite cars is a '58 Chevy 2-dr Yeoman wagon....I'd love to own one of those bad boys. Perhaps in another life.

Jared deserves a special shout out for being our chase/rescue vehicle for the cruise. No one broke down, but f we had, I'm sure whatever we needed was in the back of his truck. (Which was a slick machine on its own.) It was nice to see that GMC security blanket in the rear view mirror!

Thanks Ken. It was a pleasure to meet everyone. Everyone was classy folk. It's awesome to make new friends at 42 years old and I owe it to this forum.

I was uber-over prepared with what I brought. I'm glad we didn't need any of it. It was cool seeing those cars on Route 66 and seeing the sights on Route 66. I love going through little towns like this.....

I am sorry I didn't get to go or meet up with you guys. I over-booked or scheduled my weekend. I did manage to help get HAFROD's thrash a little closer to operational.

I will make sure I have everything cleared out for the next one.

Thanks for helping Danny. I'm not sure he would have made it without your help. I hope to meet you next time.

The 58 Impalla from American Graffiti is one of my all time favorites. I've never seen a Yeoman wagon, not even a picture, but my gut says I would like it.

Jared,
The American Graffiti '58 is an icon. I saw a program awhile back on TV...forgot which program...the new owner wanted to restore it back to it's original Graffiti glory. It came out quite nice, too.
Btw, here's a pic of the Yeoman wagon that I found online. Hope you like it. I wouldn't have gone with that color green.
