Car Show Connecticut Sept 17

Just wanted to give some of the members in New England a reminder of the New England Olds Club annual car show scheduled for Sept. 17th at the Southington Drive-in. If you go into their website at www.neolds.com you can view and print a copy of the flyer for the show. This is a great show that draws over 100 Oldsmobiles of all models from around the area.
Hopefully the weather will cooperate but if it doesn't there's a rain date. The contact info on the flyer will keep us posted.

Now that you reminded the local folks about this upcoming car show you're obligated to post some pics after you attend. Gentleman's agreement!

I’ll be attending the show for the first time. Looks like a good time at that old drive in theatre. Maybe have my car ready for next year.

Lot of nice cars there.

It looks like the '60 Mercury grille just fits in this '61 Olds bubbletop custom.

Here's a few more pictures from the show. Thanks to all those who posted other pictures.


When was the last time you saw a 4-dr diesel Cutlass?

A big thank you to Tom, Mike, & Phil for posting these photos, I recognized many of them, including the owners. I surely miss going to this show when I lived in CT, perhaps one day I'll be back, who knows.
