Camaros....usually bargain basement specials.
Next on boredom list...65-69 Chevelles, again more Edlebrock and Pep Boys stuff than nice originals.
55-57 Chevys...many are nice and more or less stock ( around here there are so many they get to be too common), many are not. One guy showed up with a (somehow street registered) flat black 55 gasser at a show this weekend. His wife sat next to him wearing pink ear protectors.63 Avanti R1 2788
1914 Stutz Bearcat

Hmmmm, another hard one... This weekend's show actually had more 32-34 Fords and every configuration of VW's than anything else, but I usually look at everything. We even had a REO street rod and a Frazier Rat Rod ! ( I guess that's the proper description for stock motor, primer, pinstripes, and lowered). On the mainland - - I would agree with too many Mustangs and Camaros, but what the heck, it gets folks out and involved. Oh, we also had a Mercedes Limousine Jet car and two choppers with Briggs and Stratton V-Twins !! Our little community all came out it seemed.

I really sink a bit every time I see the 2008 and newer Camaro's, Challengers, and Mustangs parked among the oldies. Some older shows or events have cut offs (usually 15 or 20 years old), but many of the newer events allow anything. My problem may have to do with my increasing age more than anything else. You are seeing them more and more. I guess in a way, it's good for the hobby, but still, I think they are kind of like a bottle of $3 wine in a rack filled with vintage classics.
