I took in the 26th annual Otterville car show in this beautiful town with a park right near a small river and falls. There was just over three hundred vintage cars and I took my 1974 Chevrolet Caprice Estate wagon. My 74 needed a good run and the one and a half hour drive to get there was just what the doctor ordered. Other than the scary gas consumption the wagon performed flawlessly. Check out the rides. Cheers.

Mario, the gold V was the Bel Air only. The 210 and 150 model had chrome V if they were V-8 powered. The color combo is Tropical Turquoise and India Ivory. I had to take a double take when I saw it and it made me sad that I no longer have mine. Cheers.

Ah that's it. Gold V for Bel Air and chrome V for V8 on other models. Thanks for clarifying. Cheers, Mario

Another really nice car show you attended George! Glad to see your beautiful 74 Chevy Caprice, looking good. I'm sure he was happy to get a good run to Otterville!
Wow the 57 Chevy Bel Air is a real Beauty! Just like the one you used to own too. The baby blue and white combo is exquisite. I see a lot of options installed also just like you like it. It's a rare 4 dr hardtop with skirts and the dual chrome exhausts are sharp. Twin antennas, dual outside mirrors, bumper guards, rubber tips and chrome trimmed trunk! I think the Gold V insignia means it has a V8 right? Excellent Icon.
I also like the 56 Mercury. I've seen it before at one of your other car shows. Really sharp looking.
Boney Buddy is hilarious and to see a Vega at a car show is rare also. My sister had one that ceased on her and it went to the junk yard.
Great car show and thank you for sharing all the wonderful pictures George. Cheers, Mario
