Grand Rapids Autorama 2006 (56k warning)

All my pics are here Overall it was a really fun show to go to, but it wasn't exactly worth the 2.5 hour drive to go there to see 150 or so cars, but it was still a great time going with the club and such. You guys will probably recognize a lot of the 4th gens, especially Scott Quentin's (DreamerQ's) 4th gen (the red with black stripes) he mostly posts on CamaroZ28.com though.

My favorites:















1100 HP Camaro:



Does the alternator on this really old "rat rod" look firmiliar?

why does the alternator look familiar?

that carbed one with the supercharger is weird to me...it doesnt seem efficient to blow into a carb...use a roots blower with the carb(s) on top.

oh and that 5th gen pacecar chop is awesome! they should do that to really complete the whole retro idea

nope, he says it's from some 80's v8 he found it at the junk yard (lt1's use a serpentine belt, the v pulley doesn't fit very well on the new style)
