The Iron Indians held an outstanding show at the military museum for Pontiacs, Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Cadillacs, and GMC trucks. The show featured four very rare Buick GSXs. There were only 44 GSXs manufactured in 1972. Out of the 44 only 2 possess a Stage 1 455 cubic inch engine with a four-speed manual transmission and it is pictured below(the red one). … [Read more...] about Calgary – Iron Indians – Jun 23, 2024 – 120 photos

The beautiful summer weather brought out a lot of nice vehicles including Paul and Marjorie's 55 Packard Caribbean which was looking spectacular with the top down. … [Read more...] about Carseland – Jun 22, 2024 – 100 photos
Magrath – Jun 22, 2024 – 62 photos
It was a beautiful, warm, sunny day in Magrath for their annual car show and parade. It was a well-organized event with the vehicles lined up in three rows on Harker Avenue, allowing for a smooth transition into parade formation. I was thrilled to see Bert and son Geoff arrive in their 1925 Ford Model T and watch it being driven in the parade. Magrath has the widest streets of … [Read more...] about Magrath – Jun 22, 2024 – 62 photos

Fort MacLeod – Jun 15, 2024 – 132 photos
Historic main street in Fort MacLeod is the perfect setting for a classic car show. There were some beautiful classics which I hadn't seen before including the 1931 REO and a 1926 Buick.

Calgary – Aspen Heights Retirement Residence – Jun 14, 2024 – 22 photos
I'm coming to the realization that some of the best "car show food" is served up at the senior's homes. Today, at Aspen Heights Retirement Residence, we enjoyed bratwurst, burgers, chicken wings, corn on the cob, pasta salad, cake and pop. As you can see in the photos, the line-up for the food was lengthy. Thanks to the car owners who brought their vehicles out for the seniors … [Read more...] about Calgary – Aspen Heights Retirement Residence – Jun 14, 2024 – 22 photos
VTAA in Markerville – Jun 13, 2024 – 28 photos
It's not everyday you see a 1907 Ford Model K driving down the street. Or for that matter, a rare 1930 Hudson Eight. The Vintage Touring Association of Alberta made a stop in Markerville with 18 classic vehicles which were all pre-1932 mostly original or restored cars. … [Read more...] about VTAA in Markerville – Jun 13, 2024 – 28 photos

Three Hills Part 2 – Jun 1, 2024 – 83 photos
The first photo in this set is a 66 Chrysler with a somewhat unique feature - it has a "three on the tree" standard transmission. By the time the sixties rolled around, it was rare to see a luxury brand such as Chrysler with a manual gearbox. With the beautiful weather, there was a huge turnout of vehicles and spectators for the show. … [Read more...] about Three Hills Part 2 – Jun 1, 2024 – 83 photos
Three Hills Grand Entrance- June 1, 2024 – 182 photos
Arriving before the official start allowed me to snap photos of the earliest cars as they were arriving. The best part is that I didn't have to ask anyone to put their hoods down! The first car pictured, a 65 Rambler Ambassador, was purchased new by the owner's(driving) grandfather. It was a glorious spring day with sunshine and barely a breeze. Thanks to the Three Hills Street … [Read more...] about Three Hills Grand Entrance- June 1, 2024 – 182 photos
