Neat story. Two sequentially numbered 71 Hemi R/T Chargers sold at the same dealership in Canada...

Nice. Thanks again for posting the pictures.
You have to love the winged cars. When we were kids this guy had two Superbird's sitting in his back yard. You could see the wings above the fence line.
Gotta love the barn find cars.

From what I remember it was a fairly plain 66 with Torq Thrust style wheels. The show is so big that you miss some stuff.

Thanks for sharing all the great pictures. I attended this show several years ago and it really was phenomenal. I'm a sucker for Stage 1 Buicks. That Diplomat Blue '70 is gorgeous.
I also know I'm in the minority but I have never been a fan of the wing cars. They're just too BIG. Everything about them is disproportional. That aside, this was a stunning collection of cars.

Great pics! At the risk of seeming ungrateful, what about the 68 H/O barn find?!?

Same here, mid 80's. I had a neighbor with a green Superbird behind the fence in Deerfield, IL. Really nice guy that put up with the neighborhood kids begging to buy the car.

I’ve gone to the past last six shows from PA. It’s an annual pilgrimage now. Judged for the first few years but I think I’m done with that.

I think my favorite this year out of many was the white ‘72 Hurst SSJ Grand Prix. Two of 60 were there this year.

We were told around 50 wing cars were there! This was my first time going and me and my two friends were worried about being disappointed. Boy were we wrong! We got there at 9:00, left at 2:30 to eat at Caddyshack, returned around 4 and stayed until 8:00 and I see cars in your pics I never even saw. The Oldsmobiles on display were top-notch, including the purple car. And I've never seen so many Hemis and LS-6 Chevelles in my entire life. I definitely plan on attending future events.

The number of low mileage original cars was insane. That 67 Chevelle race car was completely original with 42 miles on it! And that Blue and Gold/Tan Z-28 had 14 Kilometers!
