Wonder how well the spoiler is held on? I really liked the roof spoiler I had on the GTO, but it checked out of the chat at triple digits. Luckily my buddy in his Lambo was far enough behind me to avoid it when it came off, told him thats what he gets for making me lead
If you look close it looks like it might be bolted with a plastic snap on cover over the head.
 
I gotta say that early Chevy at the FD show brings back memories. When I was a senior in HS (1972) I had a 50 Chevy. Bought it off a guy that graduated a year ahead of me. It was cleaned up and painted by another local guy that graduated in '69. Lets just say the car was 'well known" around the area. Maybe it was the shade of orange. LOL
Everyone in the school called it the Pumpkin. 6cyl, 3 spd on the column. It was a fun car to cruise around with. Back then there were no DWI laws. Knew all the local cops. Small town. I bet more Bud went into that car than gas. LMAO
I drove it until it developed a rod knock. Got a new babbitted rod from JC Whitney. Friend of my father installed it. It only lasted a month or so. My next car was a '68 Chevelle with a 396 and a 4spd. Those were the days !!!!

TWO Hornets at 1 show and Vega wagon? I don't think I've ever seen a Hornet in real life. Dad owned a Vega in 75 while stationed in Maine but it wasn't a wagon. Been years since I've seen a Vega too.
 
The ‘80 Cutlass has a strange vinyl top! it also has a bench seat interior with Calais grills. I wonder if that car is some kind of special edition or the top is a custom dealer installation.

We hit what should be an annual show at the Iron City brewery off PA 28. Great turn out as it took almost an hour to get in since traffic was backed up to PA 366. Was kinda disappointing to see several leave early but the approaching rain chance might of been the reason as it did hit & caused an hour wait just to get out of the brewery. Before we left Jr. was able to get "Kevdogged" by Kevin from Kindig-It Designs as they had they cew there with a few cars & doing the sign the merch thing. Him & Dave was great to meet even if it was a short thing. Dave actually took the time to listen to Jr. about his You-Tube videos. I'm chessing it cause of how Kevin said chesse.

But to the reason for the thread starting with the G's. Did miss a black Regal during the exit scramble.
