My friend and I had a great day trip. 3.5 hours from Seattle to Salem, 4.5 hours back. The show itself was well organized, as alluded to above. Parking and logistics were a breeze. The collection is overwhelming. It’s kind of like an automotive Versailles, just so much that you get a little numb. The Shelby Cobra display was awesome and well done with storyboards and easy identification signs on each car. I expected the Corvette display but was surprised by the line of six L88’s. I was expecting the line of half the Trans Am ragtop population, but it’s still staggering to see. The lines of Hemi cars with Hemi E Body ragtops on tilted pedestals were impressive as well. I recognized many significant cars that I’ve tracked in the past, and as a Hipo Ford fan, the row of R code Galaxies and Fairlanes was quite a thing to see. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen pairs of ‘65, ‘66, and ‘67 R code Galaxies in the same place before.

Great to hear you enjoyed the signage. I had the honor of writing those for The Brothers several years ago, and really enjoyed doing it. (over 300 of them!) Was great catching up with some of you! Bashton

An homage to Chrysler quality control? G60-15 back and F60-15 front on the passenger side, G60-15 front and F60-15 back on the driver’s side, lol.

Though I’m a Shelby Cobra and Mustang nerd, a big block FE Ford fan, and a Pontiac GTO/Trans Am enthusiast, the one car that just tickled me when I saw it was this Mauve Hemi ‘66 Belvedere convertible. My pick of the show

The white 1967 Camaro Z/28 was sold new at Holz Chevrolet here in WI. Restored in the late '80s by the team at CPX when Doug Martz owned it.
Has an odd option, Tri-volume horns,
