Well, I was entered in another car show over the weekend so I have lots of photos once again.  This car show took place on Saturday (6/4/2005) at a farm near Eugene, Oregon.  It was a large show for the area featuring over 400 cars.  It was a lot of fun (dispite some car problems-which including breaking down during the evening cruise and having to leave earily as a result).  Anyway, here are 6 photos I took at the show.  I'm sorry for the low quality (I had to resize them down to 600x450 inorder to keep them each below 100KB).  

OK, this first pic is of a old Ford Model T hotrod (unfortunately I can't remember what exactly year but it was mid-1920s).  What really stuck out to me on this car was the custom brass covered motor.  It had a very unique look and really shined in the sun.
...

This is another Ford hotrod, but this is a 1929 Ford Model A.  I really liked the multi-color flames in the paint of this car.  The blue, green, yellow, and orange colors flowed very nicely creating an attractive combonation of colors.
...

This car is more from the era that I like, this is a 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396.  This completely original car had a 350hp big block 396 motor, a 4-speed transmission, and a beautiful black paint job.  It was one of the nicest muscle cars at the show.
...

For this shot, I included 2 cars.  On the left (blue) is a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS/RS 350.  This car was a completely original example of a first year Camaro.  It had many desirable options including the Super Sport and Rally Sport packages (SS/RS) and featured a high performance 350ci V8 engine, this was the first year that the legendary 350 was avilable-and it was only avilable in Camaro's that year.  Next to the Camaro is a 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle-Malibu SS (red).  This classic car is a first year Chevelle and had a beautful red paint job.  Also completely original, it featured a 289ci V8 engine under the hood.
...

OK, now I know that you guys have seen pictures of my car before-but I decided to post this photo because I really liked it.  As you can see, my 1969 Chevrolet Camaro 350 is in the foreground.  Behind it is a 1971 Chevrolet 3/4-ton Pickup that is owned by one of my best friends.  This was the first car show that the two of us enter together (it was his first show) and it was a lot of fun.
...

Finally, this is a beautiful 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440-6 Pack.  This car was competely original and featured a 4-speed transmission, plumb crazy purple paint, and a 440ci V8 motor with a 6-Pack (3 2-barrel carburators).  I have always liked the early Challenger's (a friend of mine owns one) and this is probably the nicest one I have ever seen.
...

So, there are a few pictures from the car show.  Please feel free to let me know what you think and if you want to see more I have plenty and will be glad to post another set.   Smiley

What, no MUSTANGS?!!  You'd think there would be at least one in the bunch.

Love the Challenger.  Grin

There were a couple Mustangs (a lot less than usual).  There was one really cool '68 that had kind of a burt orange paint job, custom grill, and some cool modern features.  I'm not that big of a fan of custom cars, but that one was pretty cool.

I have a bunch of pics of my Camaro at this website: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/482477.  Mine is still a project so it doesn't look that awesome just yet-but I think its coming along nicely.  I hope you like it.   Smiley
