| This show seems to get washed out, or it's 95 and humid, finally a nice day. Oldsmobiles first. Nice '67 Cutlass '68 Cutlass '70 442 '72 Hurst Pace Car '86 Cutlass, 70,000 miles, 300hp 350 Olds motor, 2004r w/shift kit, 3.42 posi out back. Clean car. Only wagons 2 Lagunas S3's, I thought they all rotted out up here. '69 COPO Camaro still had the aluminum 427, no L-88 imposter. '57 Ford, 32 valve cobra motor, man, that's a big engine. Sweet car. '63 Galaxy 500 with a dual quad 427 4 speed, all original, # matching car. Can't find the pics, my favorite car there. '06 Saleen S7, Only a few LT1 cars, the only cool one was a '93 Formula 6 speed, an info card said 640 rwhp. | |

| Found a few more pics, including the Galaxy. The owner said it was finished 3 years ago, after he bought it from the original owner in '99. The original owner had not had it on the road since '80. The paint is the original paint, not repainted. I guess the car isn't completely original, but, it's close. It was restored by Riter Restorations in East Rochester, NY. Nice Caprice, 34,000 miles. One more Olds, '70 442. The only MG worth a pic. Datsun with a 340 MOPAR, squirrely! Runs the One Lap Series with it, Ran the actual Cannonball years ago, before it was outlawed. Signed by Brock Yates. Here is a link to Riter Restorations, they do some nice stuff. I got to drive the white Challenger that's on their home page when I was in college. That car also was made for the Cannonball race and was built and is still owned by Brock Yates. Used to be a destroked low compression 340ci. and a 40 gal. fuel cell with 2 filler necks to make fill ups quick. http://www.riterrestorations.com/

| Cant believe what went into the 56 ford and that massive Cobra engine!COPO Camaro was sweet but once you have seen a COPO to me they all look the same.Blue Nomad was a real beauty and original looking.I bet driving either the MG or the Datsun was a "Life flashing before your eyes" kinda moment and a underware changer too.Neat 63 Galaxie,a good friend in HS had a 64 Galaxie with the same engine and trans.I remember that car well,it was suppose to have been built as a factory drag car and it had no options at all.We traded cars one day so he had my 429 Cyclone and me in his 64.What I remember most vividly was how the trans roared in each gear.I thought something was wrong with it and traded back.From a distance you could hear the gear roar before you heard the engine.His dad didnt want him racing it so it had a speedway gear in it and would run like 60 in first gear.He still has pictures of the car in his garage. Great Memories Jim Gordon |

| I keep drooling over that 350 swapped into that 80's Cutlass. That is EXACTLY what I want to do with my 88 T-top. I hate hate HATE the 307! Man they did a good job on that swap, it looks totally stock, just the way I want to do mine.
Thanks for posting all the pics. Some gorgeous cars!!
