I had a few more cars to post, but I didn't feel like it yesterday. So, I'll post them today!

1956 Chevrolet Wagon. The front reminds me of the Ford Fairlane from that time period.

So yeah, it was a great car show and I'm definately glad I went to it. If it wasn't so hot outside and if I didn't have something important to do later; I probably would have stayed another hour at least and probably taken a few more pictures of other cars that were there.
 
I sure did!

Any day I see my favorite car is a good day.

Rather nice Celica GT with some rally mods and Team Toyota Europe stickers and the like. Parked next to my dad's Alltrac later on, unfortunately though has the stock 2.2 5SFE motor, still nice though.

I see those michigan manufacture plates on a lot of cars during test drives. I don't know why they use them.

Well I'm assuming that it's somebody from Dodge who's traveling around to various shows in various states showing off the new Challenger, as that's pre production is it not?

I just find it odd how they'd show up to a show in PA that's a good size but not like a HUGE thing.
 
Well, I decided to check out a car show that was taking place today in a town that was over an hour away from me and I managed to drive on the first highway I've seen with a speedlimit that was higher than 65mph. Anyway, the car show was smaller than I hoped, but I still saw a few great cars there. Well, Imma post 'em now!

One of the nicer MKIVs I've seen, though it can't quite match that green one from Cars & Coffee.

The owner of this Rapide and his wife approached me as I was photographing the car and asked if I'd like to sit in it. Of course, I obliged, and they let me start it up and blip the throttle a couple times in sport mode. Excellent car!

The owner of this 911 happened to be near and noticed me near the Rapide and asked me a couple questions about it. She was so surprised that Aston-Martin were making a four door!
