Very nice! Thanks for posting this. Ok, maybe my favorite was the Indian. And what was that big engine in the back of the TT? I noticed some model As with 16" wheels. I always liked that modification. I wish there was a show like that somewhere near me. Not a big fan of camaros, mustangs and mopar muscle cars. I guess I'm in the minority. Stopped in once at a car show with my cummins powered '54 gmc flatbed and nobody even looked up from their coca cola memorarbila and fuzzy dice to look at it. Lemmings.....

I agree, the Indian had the perfect amount of restoration.

All I remember about the engine in the back of the TT is that it was an Aircraft engine ... maybe a 12 cyl. ?

Great pics rusty! Thanks for posting them. Looks like a beautiful day for a car show. Did they run that aircraft engine? Looks like water hoses hooked to it and the fire extinguisher is standing by.

Yes, There was a big migration of people when it was fired up.

I bet that is a Liberty engine in the back of the TT.

I agree with GB Sisson, I would go to car shows if these car showed up. As it is, I avoid cars shows. There are only so many muscle cars and Beach Boys songs I am interested in (about 5 minutes worth of each)...

I like the Indian too. But those Model A's look great. I especially like the pickups. I will take the blue one but would give them all a home if needed. That is my kind of car show.

My kind of show too; muscle cars are OK but I kind of grow weary of 30 Mustangs, 25 Cameros, 30 'numbers matching' original Chevelle SS 396s, and 20 or so Cudas and Challengers to see the real fun stuff. I like everything I see here. The original Indian is good and I would've loved to be there when they fired up that Liberty engine.
