    ....and that's all I got. Took 960 photos at the Hershey car show today. Maybe there will be more wagons next year. Attendance was down from previous years. Fewer cars in the show and fewer cars in the car corral. But still a great show.

    I love the Suburban. I've always liked that GM Turquoise on their trucks, and this is the first one I've seen with the poverty-level trims. Usually you see them with white-trim grille and wheels.

    'Joe Carfagna,' that name sounds familiar. Is he a professional restorer?

    Hershey looks like an amazing car show! It most have taken you awhile to walk the show getting all these great pics. Thank you.
    I find it interesting that so many of the cars have a fire extinguisher by the front wheel. Is this a mandator thing?

    Yeah, it took a while. Knees, lower back and feet were sore for a while after. I took 400 pictures going through the car corral and just a few rows in the vendor area on Wednesday. Then went back on Friday for the car show and took over 900 pictures. That was alot of walking.
    The Antique Auto Club of America (AACA) requires that fire extinguishers be prominently displayed with any vehicle entered in their shows.

    The only station wagon at today's Hunt Country Classic British car show in Marshall, Virginia today, was this Triumph Herald wagon. I didn't even know there was a wagon version of the Herald.

    I'd seen an ad, but not a pic, let alone one in person.

    I drove the Fury to work a few weeks ago when the weather was still nice. It appeared that many other folks had the same idea as me. I came across this nice 55 chivy wagon while on my way back to work after lunch.

    He was moving at a pretty good clip! :LOL:

    I finally caught up to him at the traffic signal. Unfortunately he kept driving as I approached my destination, so I was never able to get a photo from any other angle.
