Going directly from the biggest local VW meet of the year to a classic car event may seem weird to some but “I appreciate a fine body no matter the make”.
Unfortunately the somewhat unpredictable weather that day put a slight damper on overall attendance, but I did get a chance to meet Rob from Performance Improvements (and twitter) along with some of his family at the show which gave us a chance to talk cars and future endeavors.
Post 1955
Caught a couple guys with later model vehicles hanging about.
Trucks
Couple trucks came out, not too many being a pre 1955 but a few…
Full fendered
Now rolling fenders is pretty common place but prior to this depending on your car you could either choose to keep them or rip em off.
Fenderless
Hopefully I have a chance to make it out to next years event and appreciate more cars from an era gone by.
Nice, the classics just have a whole different level of appeal, don’t they!
That white “Grand National” might be a Turbo Regal. Basically the same thing as a GN, but not called a GN. My friend’s brother had one just like in the pic, but with T-tops. That was my introduction to forced induction, and that’s all it took to get me hooked!

Phil you are right, GNX’s were only offered in black but Regals in whatever. Neat.
Had to read the title twice since the first two were post 55… Makes me wanna work on my fargo and my honda
i hate when people paint stuff that should be chrome i dig that big ol ford truck i dig very much
That Buick is a Regal T-Type/Regal Sport Coupe (depends on year). My dad had a grey one back in the day. Hauled ass, but couldn’t handle worth a damn.
