One of the best all make shows around!  Christmas town USA!   The Friday Night block party is amazing!  Then Saturday and Sunday in the park does not disappoint!

I was thinking of going to that but now I'm going to be in Nashville. Maybe next year.

I will be there! What are you bringing?

We typically hit the street party on Friday . . The rest of the weekend depends on Weather.  If really nice, wife will want to do something else.  If just average . . I may come back on Saturday.   Driving . . Hmmm not sure yet.  Wife mentioned that we haven't drove the hard top to the show in awhile.

This was a great show!  I missed the street party so went on Saturday to Heritage Park and was a lot of fun!  Had multiple jets flying over, a waterski show on the River, live music and probably close to 3000 cars.  Although they are all makes and models, the Saturday show has a year built limit and when you register, the first question is “what year is your car?”  Down side is  . . There is only one road in and out of this park so coming or going takes time.   

If you have a car that was not at least 25 years old, then Sunday would be the day to attend.  If I was just going to be a spectator, I would park in town somewhere and walk over using the wooden bridge. 

Didn’t take any pictures but I bet I saw 30 ebodies.  More cudas than challengers.   Something else I noticed . . Of the ebodies, I bet 80% of them were 4 speeds!  Very limited automatic!  Saw a flat hood cuda, a couple convertibles, 3 AARs, a few with modern power plants.   Many very nice cars! 

What I didn’t see . . No wing cars at all and not a single AMX or Javelin . . . That I saw anyways.

This show is definitely on my 'to do' list. Hopefully next year or two.
Thanks for the posts Dave!
