I have tremendous respect for vintage cars like that, but what would catch alot of people off guard is one with a chunky V8, or hypo Turbo 6. :

Yeh saw them yesterday. Some unusual cars there, ones I had not seen before.

I was more interested though in the Mustangs across the road though. Some really top quality cars there this year. Would of been a really tough job being a judge.
