Re: Do You Remember Your First....
The earliest time I remember seeing a bunch of souped up cars is when my Dad took me to Skips Fiesta on North Ave near 1st ave. in suburban Chicago in the late 60's. I will never forget it.

Re: Do You Remember Your First....
Sam, I've been looking for something to put the motor in.. Possibly another Nova... I thought about doing another Nova identical looking to the 69 I had.. I have the paint codes for the blue and the stripes.. The guy who painted it taped them inside the glove box on a piece of paper...
Maybe someday..... Rich

Re: Do You Remember Your First....
My first that I can recall was at the International Amphitheater in Chicago in 1969 or 1970. I probably have some poor quality photos somewhere. Not much of a memory of the event, my dad may have driven me there.

Re: Do You Remember Your First....
Steve,was that the 1970 New Car Automobile show held in February?
I knew it was always held at the Amphitheatre previously,but starting with the 1970 model year,it was meant to be held at the newly built McCormick place complex,in what's known as the east wing today.Thanks to a fire there days before,they had to move it back into the Amphitheatre again. Here's some vintage pics from one who was there.. http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=150479 http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=150539 http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=150552

Now that I think about it, I think that I went to the new car show for the 69 model year at McCormick Place. I recall sitting in a 69 Roadrunner that had a christmas tree set up in front of it. No photos, though.
