Colchester car show

I didn't realize that about 10 minutes away from me I have been missing the monthly car show in Colchester.
Speaking with one of the members sponsoring the show he stated it generally pulls in around 300 cars.
Of course, this was the last one for the season, hopefully, I will attend with my vert next year.
Here are a bunch of pics.

It was really fun seeing all the pictures, thanks for posting them. That gasser T-bird was way cool, I don't think I have ever seen one of them before, people like doing the tri five chevys a lot that way.

Thank you for taking time to share that great show with us.

The collectors in your part of the world have wonderfully eclectic taste. With so few belly-button cars there, you even appreciate them instead of thinking, "next!"

I love to look at old houses too, and there were some beauties in the background.

Thank you for sharing! Wow, such a broad spectrum of cars and trucks. VC455, many old houses up there in the New England states!

Nice pics!

The Colchester town green there is a nice place for a show. I used to cut through that way years ago when I traveled from North Stonington to my house on Route 316 in Andover.

X2.

Last Chatham Cruise of the season was Saturday night. Great weather and I was headed to the daily driver to go and then I thought...

80 mile round trip drive to see the same old tired-*** cars I've been seeing for 30 years, with the same old ******* owners. I went back in the house.

That's the great thing about y'all posting pics. I see INTERESTING cars, not the same bellybuttons that show up here. Anymore you see one 1st gen Camaro, TriFive or 69-72 Chevelle you've pretty much seen them all, and those are well over half of what shows up at cruise nights here. Add in owners who obviously peaked in high school and it makes for a boring cruise night.
