[TheMattMan]

A Monte that looked good....

An Aero Monte SS that looked bad a**.........

[TheMattMan]

An Oakland. Never even knew they existed (or that they were under the GM banner), so if anyone has some info on it I would appreciate it.

[TheMattMan]

Hurst Olds

[TheMattMan]

Allante

Thats it for now - the rest will be up sometime tomorrow.

Matt, I think Oakland later became Pontiac.

These pictures are great. Thanks for posting!

Actually I'm dreading the days of 3.79 a gallon.

...Oh, 0.379 a gallon? If only transportation could be that inexpensive.

[TheMattMan]

A few more Cadillac pics. The real disappointment to me was the lack of Caddys there. I was hoping for mid 60's - mid 70's Caddys but there weren't any there. Same with the Impalas. Plenty of 62-64 Impalas, but I didn't see any Impalas from the late 60's to the mid 70's.

[TheMattMan]

Wanna buy and fix up a iconic Corvete?

[TheMattMan]

A one of a kind Chevelle

And other Chevelles

[TheMattMan]

El Camino

[TheMattMan]

Corvettes.

Edited June 27, 2006 by TheMattMan

[TheMattMan]

Some Vettes and a Laguna.

[TheMattMan]

63 Stingray (which to my surprise was sitting all alone)

[TheMattMan]

And to cap it off, a Z06 Corvette. While I was taking pics, there was a Q&A going on in the white building where the car was sitting next to..... once again all alone.

[TheMattMan]

That's all.

[Cory Wolfe]

Should've went...

[Camino LS6]

El Camino

Shoot me now, just shoot me now.

I WANT!!!!!

[Camino LS6]

Hey Matt, thanks for posting all of these pics! I wanted to see that show so badly but had to miss it. Although if I had gone they'd still be trying to pry me off of the 454SS El Camino.

If you have any more pics of it please post them.

*sigh*

[NOS2006]

What is that?

[ocnblu]

That's one of those "Chevelles" made from a new GTO. You haven't seen those, Nos?

[NOS2006]

I don't think I saw a completed one.. only a work in progress.

That's what I thought it was, just wasn't sure.

[I hope GMRULES again]

Nice pics. How many cars are at this show? I usually go to spring Carlisle but I have never been to the all GM show. The grounds look kind of empty, is it worth driving 500 miles for it?

[Camino LS6]

It is when it doesn't rain incessantly.

[TheMattMan]

Nice pics. How many cars are at this show? I usually go to spring Carlisle but I have never been to the all GM show. The grounds look kind of empty, is it worth driving 500 miles for it?

To be honest, I wouldn't know the exact # of cars that are at this show.... obviously this year was less because of the rain. I think if not for the rain, there would have been at least 75-150 more cars there (maybe even more) filling up the ground. Last year when I went to the all Ford show there, the entire ground was filled up (mostly because it was a hot sunny day).

When I was there Saturday, there weren't any C1 Vettes, very few Cadillacs, very few Buicks, and few of a certain model (like early 70's Impalas).

[Camino LS6]

I've gone when the weather was good and the place was packed. Cars all the way up the hill. The rain really ruined things this year it looks like.

A Monte that looked good....

...

An Aero Monte SS that looked bad a**.........

*raises eyebrow*

COOL!

Did you, by chance, catch the names of the owners of these cars?

Cort, "Mr MC" / "Mr Road Trip", 32swm/pig valve/pacemaker

[GMTruckGuy74]

Hahaha... Matt, we where there at the same time and you & I took many of the same pictures! I find that very funny.

The yellow Z06 belongs to the Fbodfather - Scott Settlemire!!! I was in that white building when you took the pics of the Z06 - and Scott was the one doing the Q&A session along with David North (retired GM engineer & consultant). After the session ended around 3:15, Scott got in the Z06 and drove over to the Tom Henry Chevy (dealership) tent.

Yes, there are ususally many, many cars & trucks on display at the All-GM show. The rain kept MANY away and there were lots of open spaces in many of the catergory fields. Still, I missed last year (was sick) and figured I didn't want to make it two years in a row. I'm now trying to decide if I want to go back there for the All-Truck Nationals (Aug 4-6) on Saturday or to another car show in Macungie, PA that has a large toy show attached to it. I may go to the truck show on Friday, although I've done that in the past and there wasn't as much on display as there is on Saturday.
