Car Show in St. Louis on Historic Rt. 66, Post #1

Hi guys - I went to a nice larger show today at a large plaza on Historic Rt. 66 on the southwest side of St. Louis. Format appropriately was the Top 66, all makes/models/years, plus special awards like Best Paint, Best Motor, etc. The plaques for the Top 66 were really cool, and huge, 24" x 12". I was fortunate to crack the Top 66. There will be 3 posts of pictures, so please let me get all of them in before commenting. Enjoy!

Love the Corvette - love, love, love. I may have missed it was there one Oldsmobile - yours? I might have to re-look.

You're welcome Norm. That last Vette was certainly the nicest one there!

Thank you for posting the photos! I ended up going a car show in Columbia IL yesterday and cruised today in the Jeffco Power Tour. Had a good time in my Buicks as I’m still working on the 442. Looks like this show was good time too!

You're welcome. Many members of our Old's Club were going to the show in Columbia IL yesterday, I'd bet they won the Club Participation trophy. I'm sure you probably saw a group of several Old's all parked together. I was really hoping to be able to drive the Jeffco Power Tour today but ended up going to a family member's b-day party. Did you go all the way down to Bonne Terre, and if so, did you make a run down the Drag Strip? There's a great show at the VFW in DeSoto on October 19th called the American Graffiti Show if you don't have anything else going on. It always draws a large number of nice cars and they give out alot of nice awards.
