The Philadelphia Auto Show

#1 Post by AntMan »

Hello,

I wasn't quite sure where the correct location would be for me to post this, (or if this would really be an appropriate hobby forum
to post it at, at all), but I figured that some of you also have interests in automobiles, and some of these cars have both
horror and super-hero themes after all.

Anyway, I attended the Philadelphia Auto Show a couple of weeks back and have posted the pictures I took at the show,
in addition to writing a short report on it.

You can view it by going here: https://www.scififantmodmadrealm.com/Ph ... 025-1.html

Happy Reading!

Thanks!

And Yep, I agree (about the cars with the Gull Wing doors.

I think I'm personally blown away with those 1960s Camaros. I tell ya! I was definitely born too
soon. I fell in love with both the Camaro, along with the Mustang, waaay back in the 60s. Unfortunately
I was just born in 1961, and by the time I was old enough to buy one myself, they had moved into the
collectable category.

Same year here :wink: My first Summer car in 1984 was my cousin's '75 Mustang that stalled every time it went through a puddle ... my first (leased) car was a 1986 Camaro, in the same year and through 1989 or so ... it was a piece of junk frankly, and would refuse to go up any hill if there was even a trace of snow or ice on the ground (guess I should have put sandbags in the trunk - that cured me of EVER wanting to drive a rear wheel drive car again!) :mrgreen:

But agree completely about the styling of those 1960s Mustangs and Camaros .... those cars were in a class of their own ... and if you were lucky to live in CA or the SW where you didn't need to worry about snow and ice, a helluva lot of fun to drive!!! :alcoholic:
