Hi...Spent Saturday at the Syracuse Nationals and walked a total of 9.82 miles in the 12 hours I was there in an attempt to find and photograph every Olds showing that day. Below is a link to the 300 pics I took. Mainly Olds but there's some other stuff that caught my eye (the good, the bad, and the just plain ugly!) as well.

I counted 40 Olds (including mine) out of the reported over 8000 cars on display. A decent showing for Olds compared to other years, though I was surprised I didn't see many older ones from the 40s or 50s.

Enjoy!

CRUZN 66

Thanks for sharing... The two tone brown 57 Olds must have gotten a lot of attention...

Yes, the 57 was a very impressive custom restoration. I was impressed with the green 71 442. Appeared to have been restored to precise original specs as far as I could tell. Then there was the 71 with a 71 front bumper but with a 70 rear bumper. The stuff you see at these gatherings!

I've seen a lot of them at local car shows and past Nationals. The blue 68 is owned by Dane T. I think he's a member here. The red 68 vert and 69 H/O that were together are a father and son that are there every year. I took many pics of that 68 to use as a reference for my restoration. The blue 66 cutlass convertible is beautiful. The paint on it is just amazing. I've talked to the owner a bunch of times. I run into him at practically every local car show West of Syracuse.




I usually go every year but haven't for the last two. I really tried to take off of work Friday but just had too much going on. I have some friends from Boston that make the 300 mile drive every year for the show. They're all in their 70's and have hot rods.

70-442-W30

Amazing job on the pics. Encouraging other members that if you have a few minutes to go through them. Quality cars there.

I heard they had over 8000 cars this year.

Thanks for the pics. I've attended the last 3 years but am having too many issues with my Cutlass to attend this year.

I see a few Oldsmobiles made it into the top 100 lot.

You caught a few local cars (non-Olds) from my area including a few I normally travel with.

Hopefully you'll see one more Olds next year.
