2008 B.O.P. show in Scottsdale

Yes Bart - that is the Pavillions. I gotta take a slight deviation on this next car. John and I came up on it and noticed a poster in the window. '54 Buick with 3 on the tree, 219K miles and original owner. Well you get used to hearing folks banter around one owner/original owner. As I worked my way around to the back I noticed an elderly lady sitting in her lawn chair. I said to her, "So one owner, huh. Do you know the original owner? " She said, "I do." I said if you looked in a mirror would you see her". She said "Sure wood". What a sweet little old lady Mary is. She bought this brand new. Has all the paperwork including the window sticker and a photo of her when she brought the car home. I asked her what made her hold on to the car for 53 years. She said because it was so faithful and reliable to her. She just made our day.

Ah yes, my favorite Goats of the show. These next 3 beauties all belong to a friend Bob P. A real GTO man thru and thru. He has one fine example of each of the 3 years that they made Judges. The Solar Red and Cardinal Red Judges are nice, but the Palladium Silver is special (don't see too many in that color). Check the plates. As Bob says.... "ALL RIZ, for DE JUDGE , your OVRULD!

------Boy Sam,,,If that 64 started life as a tri-power with AC and 4-speed it is a rare one. Jim M and I have talked about those a bit and he says they are RARE!!!! Did you happen to take any pics of the maroon 64 GP that was next to another car you shot in some of the first pics??? Im always trying to track 64 421 GPs and would love to know more........Bill S

This convertible just had so much going on with its decorations, chrome, stainless. Made you tired just looking at it! The quality in the restorations of most of these cars was just wonderful.

[mockingbird812]

Would have missed this car if a friend hadn't pointed it out to me. Kind of a tired Poncho w/ an incredible history. Bunkie Knudsen's personal car... with a great history. It is a 421 tri carb and was the first car with a console and a tach mounted to it. Custom paint and interior leather color.




That's all folks!

Any 61, 62 or 63 tempests? I've only seen 2 62's in person, and my Mom's car is one of them. Trying to find a good parts source for the car but it seems to be nonexistent.
