I spoted this doing a drive by of the cruze, and pulled in. I've seen him around town before. He didnt even know about the car show. He & his girlfriend just came to town for a pizza! Nice people.

The gray 83 is mine, the blue 71 is his. Six cyl auto. Nice inside, too.

I wish I would have known about that. I ran upon that show about 2 years ago by accident when I was out cruising aimlessly on my bike. It was a cool little show! I made a mental note and we se what happened!Awsome pics! I hope you can p.m. me the dates so I can make a "marker note" and not just a "mental note".

Summerfest is the weekend of June 23. The car show will be at DQ. This is the one I look forward to every year, but I just now see that is the same weekend as a race a Quaker City, so I cannot be around.mad

The next main street one is in July. I don’t really enter, I just go for beer, and see what’s going on.

(remember: mine's the gray one)

Thanks! The tires are 31x10.5x15. The wheels are 15 x 8 Enkei's, circa 1985.

The ONLY "street" tire I could find in that size is:

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Michelin&tireModel=LTX+M%2FS&partnum=105R5LTXOWL&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes

It used to have some BFG "sport truck TA's", in the same size, but I think they stopped making them when The A Team was still on the air...

Very nice. 35 years ago, my parents had one, but it was cargo, aluminum slot mags, brown, platform for a bed and full of shag carpet. Wow, just figured out why I am into vans.

Sounds like a cool lil show. I love running into people with cool old vans that either dont know or dont van anymore.
