Nice. all those cars awsome.
I saw a VW Karmen Ghia and a old Dodge Truck today. Yesterday I saw a AM DB7

Nice selection of cars (love the ’57 Chevy)

@ the modern engine covers – I have a certain disliking for them as well. All they do is try to make the engine compartment seem more organized and hide the "ugly mechanical" components from naive consumers. Women and clueless men love them (as they make the engine look pretty) I prefer engine compartments without them. Ford put those silly covers on the 2007 Expeditions, but left them off for the ’08 model year. So mine doesn’t have one, thank goodness. I would have taken it off if it did ...

Went to a classic car show, here are the pics

1957 Chevrolet





1959 Chevrolet Impala




1966 Chevrolet Impala




1965 Ford Mustang




1973 Mercury Cougar Ragtop



Olds Cutlass circa. 1970




Beautiful 1976 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight





This car had the biggest and comfiest looking backseat I have ever seen. I wish I could ride in it.




My absolute favorite of the show, 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme (though it is not old enough or rare enough to be considered truly "classic", it is still quite a beauty )








There were also brand new cars on display from the local Chevy dealer, and I got to sit in a new Impala SS



V8 engine! (Though I find it quite stupid that they put this big ugly plastic cover over all the cool parts)

The picture-descriptions are sometimes not correct.

Here are a few car photos I have taken over the past months. Quality isn't that great because I was using a cell phone.

Lada of some sort:


Furry PT Cruiser:


Maserati Quattroporte:


Ferrari 360:

Its normal for those of us here in southern North Carolina to endure 98 degrees Fahrenheit summer days with a heat index in-excess of 100. Currently the weather hasn’t been so bad though, the temperature highs for the past several days have been around the upper 80s. The weather here in Wilmington, NC is Semi-Tropical. We are just far enough down south that Elephant, Banana, Pineapple and Palm trees will grow. Further up north they are harder to sustain.

That is quite hot. I would be dying right now if I were you. A good way to beat the heat when you don't have A/C is to hang around at an air conditioned public place, like Wal-Mart or the movies or something.

West coast, near Vancouver. It was 35 today, that's... 95 fahrenheit. I think that's not very hot for a lot of people, but it's too much for me.

Yes, car hunting can be quite fun. It's hot where you are? Where are you located, Toronto? Becuase they have about the same weather as we do and it isn't too hot here... Or maybe your're out on the west coast? They've been getting some hot weather out there lately.

Thanks for the pictures.



They've always sold Dodges here, Chrysler just can't resist doing random stupid things every once in a while though.
The Chrysler Stratus and Neon weren't sold in the US? They're not on that list. The Stratus isn't uncommon, but I have no idea about the Neon, I only notice them if they're SRT-4s.
Intrepids are very common. Cheap, too. I'd buy one if... I had too much money? I can't think of a reason, but they're really good looking and I like them.
I'll put those on the list. I'm sort of looking forward to wandering around car hunting, but don't hold your breath; It's very very hot out and my AC doesn't work I'd really like to avoid being outside as much as possible in this weather.
