Default Where were the 68-72 Novas?

Greetings. My first time posting. I was eager to attend this show so I finally pulled the trigger to go. I was very much looking forward to seeing some nice examples of 68-72 Novas. I had heard there were always 550+ cars at this show.
Is it normal not to have a popular car like this not represented at all? There wasn't a single 68-72 Nova in attendance.

The feature cars are always in flux at the show. There were only a few second generation Camaros this year, also. Don't worry, next year there may be 30 Novas. The GTO's were in abundance this year and that was an amazing display.

The show was really heavy on MOPAR's this year, and other than Camaro's and Corvette's a bit light on Chevy's in general I thought.
The only '67 Chevelle's I saw besides mine were Jeff Helms and Gary Gerstner's red cars next to me in the High School Reunion Display. (Which was awesome!)
