Nice! I’ll keep an eye out for them. I’ll have my 72 Porsche there

Thanks again for this notice. +Rep! We went out and had a great time. Kids are such a whirlwind of pointing and then instantly moving onto the next thing. It's really funny seeing what interests them.
I fail massively for zero pictures, but there was a very eclectic mix there. My highlights would've been mocked, anyways. I liked the pair of 89 CRX's that were side by side and really mint. One was fully race prepped and the other, bone stock. There was also a 280z that was modified but still tasteful and getting to be a fucking old car.
Lots of American classic muscle including a 69 GTO with the original buyer's receipt for about $4,100 in Toledo.
I also enjoyed seeing an ~96 Ford Crew Cab, Long Box diesel that looked as clean as it did 25 years ago. It seemed like something shockingly rare, to me.
0.0 exotics that I saw. I had to help the kids learn that the Mustang horse isn't the same as the prancing horse, LoL!
Also saw a very old Miata with a Corvette engine and a couple of the new C8's.

Oh and thanks for the "Thick Thighs Make the Dick Rise" sticker on whatever shitbox truck I can picture some walrus with pink hair and sweaty tights leaving a bacon strip in. You're fucking gross. Go back to Old Navy.

I stumbled upon this show today as I just happened to be out in High River in the morning. I was shocked at the size of it given that High River is a relatively small, low key town. There was quite a large variety of vehicles too... something for everybody. I’ll be making a point to check it out again next year.

We (2 C10s, 1 green GTO) arrived at 6:30am. There were already 67 cars who'd already arrived and parked!

I somehow completely missed the 2 CRXs and 240. There were 1000+ cars, for sure.
