Thanks for the heads up, this is a very good show to go to. It is generally some very nice cars of all types, staged on the streets of downtown Ft Worth closed down with live music, and free admission. It is a lot of fun and low stress, does not burn off the whole day. I was out of town last year and had missed it. I will see if my crew is up for it.

I will be there weather permitting with a small local contingent and hope to meet up with some of ya's. I have never been to this show due to work conflicts and it looks like a good time.

You could not have asked for a better day for a car show. There were 750+ cars there and took up about a 6 block area of downtown Ft Worth. Unfortunately only 8 Oldsmobile's there. I did get to meet up with Alex and Brandon.

Sorry for the lack of pictures, but the camera broke. Managed to get some of the olds pics and a street view.

Nice pics. We had a show here awile back with only about 100 cars and there were 10 Oldsmobiles there. Comments were made from the Chebby and Mopar guys about that.

There were more Studebakers and Ramblers than there were Oldsmobiles. There was a shortage in the Mopar division also by the way.

It was nice to visit again, and meet Alex.. This show is always a treat for us on several levels. The only hassle was getting back across the Trinity river back to Parker Co.!!! Glad to see you are well and hope to see you there again next year.
