Hi Dan,
Looking forward to meeting you and other Archway members at the show Sunday!

I'm sure that will be a blast. If it was held in OKC there would be 2 or 3 cars there. As long as I drove my 71 and had Oldsguy (my dad) bring the 96.

BTW, pics are mandatory so take plenty.

 

The All Old's Fun Show put on yesterday by the St. Louis Archway Old's Club at the National Transportation Museum was very well attended and an absolute blast! The weather was beautiful, there was a wide variety of Old's, and there was great camaraderie among all the members, other participants, and spectators. As a 1st time attendee at this event, it was so great to see so many really nice Old's at one event! By far, my favorite event of the summer!

Here are some pics for everyone to enjoy. It will take two posts to get them all in.

More pics from Archway Old's Club's All Old's Fun Show yesterday.

 

Very nice! Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Definitely cool! Thanks for posting the pics.

 

Of course I dig the 66 wagon. Plenty of cool cars there.

 

Wow nice pics. There are many interesting cars there w nice OEM like mods.

For ex the w45 and rallye esq stripes, the 68 w hurst olds like paint and many others.

the wagon was a standout for me too. As well as the white 70 and 85-6 442...theyre all great.

what does the w45 represent?

 

I believe the W45 was a Hurst Olds pkg with L75 engine (prior CO post)+. I talked to the owner of that car and he swapped in a 455 in place of the original 350 when the resto was done. He probably just put the W45 on there to let everyone know it.now has a 455 in it, but I wouldn't swear to it???

 

Now that i zoom in on that pic i can the back says rallye 455

im liking the 69 w the HO like side stripes too

 

Thanks for the pics, the Archway Olds Club is a strong OCA supporter, thanks.

 

Everyone is welcome for the pics! The Archway Club seems like a great group of Olds lovers. I just joined this week, I've only had my car since the fall of 2019. I own the '67 Aquamarine 4-4-2 in the pics.

 

W-45 was 1968 H/O W-46 was 1968 H/O with A/C
1970 W-45 was the Ralley 350

 

Thks Ralph

i see now what he is doing a w (30-31) riff with w45 and making it his own with rallye 455 all the while incorporating original stripe and lettering styling. I like it.

on one of my projects i took an old bike and resto modded it to look like a new bike version of an old bike, (the current retro vehicle look)

when i point features that were not original (but look like they could be original ) to interested poeple, i usually get the comment of something like oh that looks like it came that way....just like many of the cars pictured.

your 67 looks fantastic as well dream67!!!

 

Thanks RetroRanger! It was a really fun show with a wide variety of Olds models, both stock and modded. I never see another '67 4-4-2 at the shows and cruise-ins around the St. Louis area, and then the red '67 4-4-2 Vert in the pics pulled in right next to me, too cool! The owner and I talked alot throughout the day about our resto's. Just a really fun day all around!
