More classics

From yesterday's car show in Ranson, WV.

Here's a 1954 Chevyrolet Bel-Air

And a Ford Maverick, vintage 1971.

Here's a Ford Model A, with a nice clean engine.

And a bright yellow mid-seventies VW Bug.

Plymoth Scamp, looking pristine, except for the water bottle someone left behinf the grille.

Red 1970 SS Chevelle, with a shiny 402 powerplant.

And this stately '54 Chevy's had just a bit of engine work done.

1972 Chevy Nova.

And a '68 Chevelle SS.

Lowered 1949 Plymouth convertible.

This Chevy Malibu sports a 350ci engine.

So does this '68 Firebird. Rowr.

Oldsmobile was represented well by this 1971 Cutlass.

And there was even an old flate-fendered Jeep CJ.

Of course there was a Pontiac GTO. Had to be one of those here somewhere.

And I almost missed this '67 Chevelle all tucked in there.

And finally, a sweet 1966 Corvette.

I'd never own a car made by "Government Motors" these days but this old classic would be welcome in my garage.

Mustang Love

Offered up with Keads in mind.

I was going to fly this morning but the bad weather got to the airport first, so I stopped off to look at a local car show instead.

And they had Mustangs. Lots of beautiful Ford Mustangs built back when men were men and cars were cars.

Here's a nice 1966 Coupe with the old 200ci straight six.

And here's a 1965 coupe, also with the straight six, just like I used to own, albeit in better shape.

And a '65 that's seen a bit of custom work, including the addition of a BOSS 302 under the hood.

This 1968 Fastback caught my eye, big-time.

But this cherry 1966 convertibe with the 289 Hi-Po V8 really did it for me.

It's even got air conditioning--an expensive option in 1966.

Alas, in 1970, the Mustang started getting fat. But this one still looks pretty sharp.

There were other non-Mustangs there too, but I'll post some of them later. Right now I'm still savoring the memory of these.
