Last night was the final cruise-in of the year at the Essenhaus in Middlebury IN and there were around 1,500 cars in attendance. Here are a few that caught my interest. Most of these are cars I hadn't seen before. This Matador Red 57 Bel Air has the Power Pack 220 horse version of the 283 with a Powerglide. This is a nicely restored car.

This Roman Red 60 Corvette is a fuel injected car with a 4 speed. It was also ordered without a radio. It appeared to be an older restoration.

This silver 72 El Camino SS is equipped with a 496 that has a Sniper EFI setup on it. This is a really clean car.

This Hugger Orange 69 Camaro RS/SS is an X22 car and still retains its original 350 horse 396 engine that is backed by a 4 speed.

This Medium Gray 75 Monza 2+2 was purchased new at Shaver Chevrolet in Homewood IL by Clyde Biagi and he still owns it today. He upgraded it with a 350, but it still has its original 4 speed. This car was a regular at the Super Chevy Shows in Joliet and has been at MCACN on several occasions as well.

This Lucerne Mist Poly 65 Cutlass convertible is equipped with a 455 topped with a Sniper EFI setup. It runs high 11's at the strip.

This Gold Metallic 69 Hemi Super Bee was ordered new by Roy Cooper Sr. and is now owned by his son. It still has its original engine that is backed by a TorqueFlite and 4.10 gears. It has 69K original miles and was repainted in '85. Other than that it is mostly untouched.

So, so many nice cars. Haven't seen a nice Monza in years and years. Thanks for sharing.

Today was the annual car show at Goldstone Automotive in Dunlap IN. There were around 150 cars there plus another 50 or so across the street at Dunlap Auto Deals. Most of the cars there were ones I had seen before so I just took a handful of photos of my favorites. This is Jim Wise's 32 Ford three-window coupe. It is powered by an LS1 with a Holley Sniper EFI setup and backed by a Tremec 5 speed.

This is Dave Geiger's 37 Ford woodie. It is painted Mandarin Gold and is powered by a 350 ci SBC backed by a 200R4. This car was built by Barry Lobeck and was a Goodguys Street Rod of the Year Finalist in Columbus in '01. He had it in Columbus this past July and picked up an award with it. It still looks great after all these years.

This is Gary Adamson's 57 Bel Air convertible. It is powered by a fuel injected 283 backed by a 4 speed. My understanding is that it is an original fuel injected car.

Dan Sharp brought his 63 Nova to the show. It is powered by a twin turbocharged 540 putting down over 1,700 horsepower to the rear wheels. It runs mid-7's and has won several NMCA True Street competitions.

This is Ralph Hoke's 68 Nova. It is powered by a twin turbocharged 402 and runs low 8's.

This is Sam Colalillo's 87 Grand National powered by a twin turbocharged 572. This is a freshly completed car and he entered it in the Super Street Big Block Power Adder class at Hot Rod Drag Week this year. He had issues at the first two tracks, but ran a 7.73, 7.92 and 7.89 at the last three tracks.

This is Les Smith's 11 Camaro powered by a Steve Morris build twin turbocharged BBC. He won the Unlimited class at Hot Rod Drag Week this year with a 7.23@204 average. His best pass was a 6.83@207 at Martin MI.

Last but not least is Bryant Goldstone's 73 Javelin powered by a twin turbocharged 556ci BBC. He won Hot Rod Drag Week this year with a 6.67@217 average. He ran in the 6.50's at every track but Martin MI where he hurt the engine and only ran a 7.19. He put a hole in the head during the pass, so they ended up pulling the engine and repairing the head before heading to Milan the next morning. Luckly Milan had a fog delay which gave them some extra time. He ran a 6.54@221 at Milan and headed to Columbus OH for the final day. On the first pass in Columbus, he broke a U joint and damaged the Gear Vendor's overdrive, so they took it out and put a longer driveshaft in. On the next pass he did a burnout and realized he had no reverse, so they took it back to the pits and swapped transmissions. With under an hour left before the track closed the lanes he came out and ran a 6.59@216. He has won the Ultimate Iron class a number of times, but this was the first time he was the overall winner of Drag Week.

wow - incredible crew to support that Javelin !!

Goldstone and his buddies have no quit in them, that is a helluva lot of thrashing and that's not including the time it takes to drive to/from each track.

MCACN '24 was another great show. Thanks to everyone involved in putting it on and bringing their cars to display. This year was heavy on Corvette's, GTO's and Mopar's.

This Onyx Black 57 Corvette is a fuelie with a 4 speed and is also a radio delete car. I believe this was a 283-horse car. J. Burgmaier had this car in the Triple Diamond Display. These dark colored cars are really hard to photograph indoors with the lighting and such.
