Hubby and I just returned from our weekend get-away in the mountains. Sunday morning we were amongst these four-wheeled beauties on display. Many would be riding the roads during the weekend. We took some pictures and below are only a few. Some of you may be able to name the model, the make. and the year. Enjoy!

Glad you enjoyed the pics, cars.

Do you go to any car shows in your area? Below is a pic of me that hubby took at the Rod Run. This car was manufactured the year of my birth..........1950. That's why I wanted a pic taken by it. I tried to look tuff. :wah:

Yep we do AFTR, we try to go to the "few" only small shows they have in our area. The last "big" one I saw was at the Mohegan Sun casino about 6 months ago, on their upper deck, open massive parking lot! There were well over 350 cars, it was just great!!! And me, I didn't have my camera, as I didn't know they were having an oldies car show! We went to the casino, & the cars show was an extra added bonus!

I was looking for a old receipt I needed, & came across my 56 Buick Roadmaster Convertable!!! It was Red & White, with red/white leather interior! I added the "Continental Wheel Kit" on this car also! "Spinners" & "rear view mirrors" mounted on the front fenders was the rage back then! Along with also "lowering" the rear end of the car 3 to 4 inches!

It was some kind of car alright, it rode like being on a cloud! But it was nasty on gas, at 10 to 12 mpg! But back then, gas was at around 18cents or so a gallon, so it was still ok! :-2
