This show is held each year on the grounds of the old Castle Heights Military Academy in Lebanon, Tennessee. I went there today for a short time, but couldn’t linger. There were over 280 cars on display. Here are the few pictures I did take. I haven’t posted multiple pics before, but this could get a bit disconcerting.

1. An early Nissan Z car.
2. A Lincoln Mark III.
3. An Austin Healey
4. Big-n-Little, a 69 Chevy pickup next to an early Mini. The pickup was offered for sale at $15.000
5. Here is a rarity. A Dodge Dude pickup. Complete with factory air.

6. A 1940 Bantam.
7. 2005 Saleen S281. These cars are not modified Mustangs. Rather, they are built at the Saleen factory from body shells supplied by Ford. This one has a supercharged engine.
8. A Packard Super 8
9. Dodge Coronet R/T
10. 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 convertible with 4-speed transmission.

11. 1914 Chevrolet. Can you imagine driving a 91 year old car?
12. 32 Ford
13. Another 32 Ford
14. 1957 Chevy Nomad. These used to be a common sight, but I don’t even see them very often at car shows.
15. Dodge Challenger.

16. 1947 International pickup
17. One bad 1934 Ford. This car had a full leather interior in bright red.
18. 1937 Packard street rod. I had mixed emotions about this one. I love rods, but it just doesn’t seem right to cut up a car this rare. Perhaps it was a basket case. This car has a purple interior.
