Is that a Jesus fish on the radiator grille of that old green Buick? No, though it kind of looks like one in the pics. I love the black '71 Cutlass with the gold hood stripes. Not a 442, not a monster, but SO CLEAN and nicely done. Lots of pretty toys at this event. -Mike | |

| This one reminds me of those toy cars that if you hit the bumper there was a panel that would flip over with crash damage. Really enjoyed the pics Mike Thanks! | |

| Ahh the Bricklin SV-1. Canada's exotic car. A car so from the 70's that the front bumper looks for all the world like an 8-track tape sticking out of a stereo.
That is actually the nicest Bricklin I've ever seen. He's at a lot of the car shows. He worked hard to make all the body gaps line up, and his car IS painted (remember the original cars were color-impregnated acrylic, so the color was in the body, not painted on...a neat idea exept they faded like mad).
That car has the AMC 390 in it, with Chrysler automatic. He added the GM "bullet" mirrors to the doors. It really is a clean one. Hard to find them "sorted out".
Funky.
