So I thought I’d take the last few post and just show you some of my favoriates.

First up is a 1957 Ford Fairlane.  Beautiful car with a little some’in extra under the hood.  Check it out:

1957 Ford Fairlane - great looking wheels!

 Great view of the portapotties  – I guess I should have photo shopped them, but that wouldn’t make you feel you were actually there. 

Oh..I bet you didn’t see that one coming!!!! Knocking out some HP with that set up.
 
 
Sorry but I have to go back to the wagons.  The two doors are the best!
 
1957 Chevy Wagon - 2 doors - Great...newish LS2 Corvette engine...enough already!!!
 
You need to check out this next car!!!
 
They did this 1960 Ford Starliner just right!!
 

Header cutouts with side pipes and those headlights!!!!

But check out the bling!!!
 

Now say that ain't nice!!!

Thanks for reading.
 
Couple more coming up.

As I have mentioned, I love the old station wagons.  I love the fact that they are being restored.  I even like the fact that many are getting the power plants they needed back then transplanted. Although I have to admit I am growing bit  tired of the seen a “Corvette” engine between the front wheels – maybe just the fact that they left the “Corvette” labeling on them.

There were some beauties at this show.

All Custom Wagon 1

Nicely Done.

 

Here is a nicely done Plymouth:

Love the Nose of this Ply - They really didn't want any one near it.

Now you can call me a DORK but I love this Ford Wagon.

 

Ford Wagon

 

Love the Grille

 

Hey..I even love the hood ornament.

This Torino Wagon, although banged up and hood all mis-aligned, it’s still a keeper with good tread and not too shabbby wheels.  I think it’s a keeper.

 

Ford Torino Wagon.

Lowered  but still standing tall was this beautiful Chevy Wagon.

 

Loving the paint and the roofline!!

I’ve got a few more post coming up shortly before wrapping the Goodguys’ car show trip.

Keep reading and thank you.

I hope everyone enjoyed the Nearly Live posts from the Goodguy’s Car Show.

The next few posts will be a wrap up the event by looking as some of the cars and a couple of vendors

Nearly on par with the Barrett Jackson auction, there were a lot of vendors.

Very impressive were the car’s brought by Drew’s Garage Cars

Take a look:

Custom Chevy

Awesome Pickup

Chevy Vert

Ironworks Speed and Kustom was there with some great looking frames.  Check them out at http://www.ironworksspeedandkustom.com/

Chevelle Frame

Chevy

I found some great looking wheels being displayed by MHT Luxury Alloys.

They were very reasonable and ideal for my Mustang, but most of the size are 17″ and above.  I not thinking 17″ on my Mustang will work.

They had these Foose designs on display.

Legend-Black-SS-500 - They might look good on my all white Mustang

Nitrous-B-5-250 - These wouldn't look bad either.

Thanks for reading

Back at the old car corral. My other choice to follow me home. My very first car 1966 Chevy impala complete with nice paint, new top and tired looking but fully complete and running 283! …Yes!!!  Bit pricey I thought @ 15k with still a lot of interior work to do.
