Cruisin Ocean city Maryland 2021

Cruisin Ocean city was last week. Drove the vista down Tuesday at 3:30 PM, got home last night around 9:30 PM. The weather was awesome all week. 17 MPG on the 180 mile trip down from Lancaster, PA to OC 7 MPG running around over the week/ weekend sitting in traffic. With over 3000 cars in attendance (registration for the show sold out and there was a lot of non registered stuff running around as well) I only got pics of a fraction, but here are some pics of the show. I know there were a few other Classic Olds members down over the weekend so feel free to post pics here as well if you have any. Lots of oldsmobiles down there, here are just a few.

Aside from my wagon, This 66 is probably my favorite car that was running around down there. It is on a roadster shop frame with a supercharged LSA and big Baer brakes I parked next to it every chance I got.

A few really cool non Oldsmobiles:




All it is missing is the CQB front plate and the red cloth interior (it was red vinyl)

There were a few other 68's down there. Another 68 w30 vert was running around the same color as the one pictured and a silver w30 hard top was down as well. They both looked like pretty original cars. a nice red 68 cutlass vert was down there as well.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like a good turnout. I've been to the spring/fall the past few years, didn't make it out this year due to kid's sports, but glad to see the activity is picking back up. I'll be out of the fall cruise though.

I quit going about 4 years ago. Too many dang cops and crowd eating Mustangs. It used to be fun.

Way to far away for me however thanks for sharing and looks like great fun. Interested in the second picture. Looks like a 66 Cutlass convertible, Lucerne Mist color and light blue interior. Do you have any information on that car. Just interested as I had one like that a long time ago. Thanks for your time.

Sorry 35tac, I don't have much info on the 66 convertible other than it was badged as a 442 and had a blue interior. I spoke with the owner for a little while, but I spoke with so many people over the week I can't remember if it was an auto or a 4 speed. I did not look at the cowl tag, but I do remember the owner telling me it was a real 442. The dark blue "66" beside it was actually a 67 with a 66 front clip. I plan on going to goodguys in Columbus Ohio in early July. Will you be attending there?

I know the guy with the 66/7. It's got a nasty Trimble motor in it.

Thanks for the info and getting back to me. I haven't thought about going to Goodguys. Never been but there is always a first. Maybe if my brother-in-law wants to go. Attached is the picture of my first 66 Cutlass Vert. I ordered with 4-speed etc. Thats why I got interested in the photo. Have a good summer.

My first 66 Cutlass.

I have never been to Columbus either. Supposedly it is their biggest show of the year with close to 6,500 cars in attendance. My Brother and I have been wanting to do the power tour for the past few years, but they keep pushing it back to the fall so this year will will try the Columbus show as an alternative.
