    I love 60s-70s funny cars, they also have gassers and pro stocks from that era.

    I don't have the benefit of the West coast shows but, Fall Wildwood NJ. I don't know why, but I live for this show each year. It's basically 99% cars I hate but the few real car guys I meet there are just excellent. I can miss MaCungie, York, the Nats, or any one of a dozen others, but not Wildwood.

    New favorite? Aces & Eights, Rumble to the Lake, October 10th. Wait! Thats our show!

    Back to the Fifties for the amount of cars. Rust Revival for the amount of awesome people, great food and Breeder. Oh yea and beer. LOL

    Pile Up is right up there too. Hopefully I will make it to the Round Up and I can throw that one in the top five.

    Milltown for sure. I go to about 30 shows a year and Milltown in Palmer mass is the best show I have been to.There are alot of great shows but It is my personal favorite and is the one show I wont miss. It has the type of cars/trucks that I love, most of the folks there seem to have the same ideas and passion for the crusty old stuff I love. Its two solid days of greaser fun,it is not uptight and judgmental just laid back and the setting is great.
    Love Real Old patina!
