I took in the annual Burford, Ontario, Canada car show during their Fall fair there. The weather was just perfect though a little chilly in the morning. Enjoyed a beautiful fall colors drive there and back. Good turn out of many cars I had never seen before. Spoke to many decent old car gear heads. They even had two monster trucks duking it out on a car crushing course. I took my 1957 Pontiac and a great day all around. Check out the rides. Cheers.

I wonder if that was done on purpose. We got a Mopar, a GM and a Ford. Some body is trying to tell us something or maybe not.

I Like the original Red Line tires on the Chevy II also, very original and the engine is beautifully chromed. That was always one of my favorite cars which I wanted to buy new but couldn't swing. They were BIG winners on the quarter mile tracks at the time. Cheers!

Mario beat me to it but that little high winding 327-350 caught my eye first thing. I was impressed with that little mouse motor when a neighbor took me a ride in his Chevelle SS. I was afraid to look over at his tach.
The leaning tower of power reminded me of my grandmother's 64 Plymouth Fury.
That late 40s International Panel looks awesome in that satin black looks nice and straight. Someone was good at hammer and dolly work.
Another fine job by our Canadian contributor.
Well done. Keep up the good work George.

I have to admit George, that Vauxhall, we had a neighbor that had one of those. And I was a kid growing up on our one way street on the wrong side of the tracks had nothing but Amercian Cars on it.
Mostly everyone was a blue collar household, and this Vauxhall just didn't fit into that scheme.
I believe the family was from Europe. They kept to themselves when most of the other families would be sitting outside in the evening.
When I saw that Vauxhall it generated that beige unappealing car on our street. Never did figure those folks out. They moved after a few years.
Just wanted to share my experience with a Vauxhall.

Nice car show George. You're really into these car shows this Fall and getting in as much time as possible. Love the pictures of all the cars.
I think my favorite 3 are:
The 1966 Chevy II SS with Factory 327/350 hp. The 1927 Studebaker with the fabulous Rumble Seat. And the very rare 1957 Chev 210 hardtop.
All Classics and in showroom condition. Cheers!
