56 minutes of pure auto porn. Posted here with Studebaker interest at about 35 min.

Enjoy - Bob

Thanks for posting...that place is huge! So many cars there that would look good in my garage, also brings back many good memories of my youth. Wonder what the total value of the cars are under that one roof? cheers, Junior

Thanks. I didn't have time for all of it now, but I will go back to it, probably this evening.

Are groups given an alloted space? Is the placement up to them with the space? I like the angle parking that shows off the front and side the best.

Our location was good and we were set up so you could go all the way around the cars. We had a good variety of colors that created interest and with perfect show cars all the way to race cars. You can see six of these Studebakers run down the track at the Studebaker National Drags here at the Brown County Dragway in Indiana again this May, a true Studebaker Drivers event.
Thanks for posting the video,
Richard

Stude's start at 37:00 and go for about a minute..

I like the McClaren orange lark!

[63larkr1]

That's George Shirley's car. Studebakers start at around 35:10 and again at 37 or so. Dave's black 1955 Studebaker and Neal and Robbin's 1964 will be between the two in the Pure Stock group and Ted's Truck and R2 were in the lobby.

A bunch of cars there I would like to drive just once.......and a few I would be afraid to drive.

I scanned through all those Mopars and Corvettes but only saw one non-Stude. that interested me, a 1959 PONTIAC El Camino! I LIKE Different! Maybe Different by Design!

Turns out searching it, that it is the ONLY Prototype 1959 Pontiac Catalina El Camino, nicknamed the "El Catalina"!

That El Catalina is becoming a but of an auction whore. It was at the Mecum Indianapolis sale last spring (where I saw it in person; nicely done, BTW) and at least one other auction since...and now I think it's going to the big Kissimmee sale! BP

I still haven't looked at all of the video. I have owned several of the models there, particularly the Mopars. Many years ago, I passed on an El Morocco on a small used car lot because it was a four door. I later found out how rare it was.

[studegary]

I don't consider some there to be muscle cars, like the El Morocco or the DeLorean (turned mine down when it came in).

Do they charge you to have your car displayed, charge admission or both?

[warrlaw1]

The cost was about $100 to enter a car and it included free entry for owner and guest. There may be other costs, such as signage, depending on the special category in which your car was displayed. Well worth it to be in such company.
