| | Joe Plover, WI |
| This goes back to my childhood/adolescence. This memorable '74 Gremlin had the quintessential 'Earl Scheib' paint job. It stocked the standard 304 V8..and lots of room under the hood to work on it. Thanks to the guys who were standing around ... more |

| | Joe Plover, WI |
| I'm taking tons of pictures during this event, but only posting 1 or 2 a day of the most unique items I've seen. This one, from day one, took the cake. By my best guestimate, it's a 1964 Subaru. Up close, it looks like a clown car! |

| Saw these tonite running errands. An action shot of a '57 Chevy obviously fully restored. Then, a car I've seen outside quite a bit: a 60's Pontiac Tempest that needs a little TLC.

| Be on the lookout as old cars are everywhere. Yesterday while working in my yard an old couple drove by in a 1955 Plymouth. It was a well used original but had no visable rust or dings. You can find them everywhere just be on the look out. |
