| to anyone that's in the area/in the mood...the Carlisle PA All-Mopar Nationals is this weekend, July 7-9. I'm planning on going up in the morning with my '79 NYer, and staying through Saturday evening. | |
| ...When is the Macungie Show? | |
|
the Macungie show is the weekend of August 5. So not this coming Saturday, but the following Saturday is when we were planning on going out. I can't remember though, did we meet at 9:00 or 10:00 last year? Also, I was late and missed the deadline to register for that show, so I won't be putting anything in. That show is popular and fills up early. For 2007 I'd actually have to register before the end of THIS year for a reduced rate, and by July 1 of next year at the latest. It doesn't cost much to register; I think like $10 if you do it early enough and $12 if you don't. I wonder if that gaudy '74 Sedan DeVille will be there for sale again this year? Maybe with an even HIGHER pricetag than before?

| That guy probably put a "1" before the number we saw on the windshield last year. That car looks good until you get close to it and see how truly awful the color really is. | |

I got to go to a small car show, of sorts, without leaving my neighborhood....we have this festival called 'Retro on Roscoe', it's a couple of blocks long and has the usual weird street vendors, icky food and overpriced cheap beer. They do also have a small vintage car show...didn't take any pictures, unfortunately, but they had the following: 73 Porsche 914 2.0, white with black interior, very nice 68 Corvette conv, nice 20-footer, pretty bad Hugger Orange repaint, nothing special (small block automatic, no power stuff, pretty basic) 69 GTO convertible, boring somehow (light blue, blue interior, automatic) 68 Impala SS fastback, VERY nice--in kind of a light gray-green non-metallic with matching, definitely original interior, 396/TH, tilt wood steering wheel, rallys with small centers and fender skirts (this combo=not available from the factory, IIRC), tissue dispenser 66 Impala SS convertible, blue with white interior and top, 396, just didn't excite me much 73 Buick Centurion converible, all black....eh. 70s pukey green with white Mustang convertible, sorta pretty my favorite, natch-66 Cadillac Eldorado convertible, green non-factory color repaint with original white upholstered bench-seat interior...turns out the owner knows my brother, and is very good friends with his girlfriend (?) |

I find that '73 Centurion convertible interesting. Probably because it's just not something you see that often. Seems like with big Buick convertibles of the 70's, the '75 LeSabre is everywhere, but the others are just about invisible.
