I managed to salvage one day at this show. But while I was there, I took 213 pics of various stuff. 
They tell me many more Chevelles were on the field yesterday, so this is just coverage of today.
These first few cars were displayed in the Crystal Class. They were last year's class winners.

That's all the Crystal Class cars for now, on to the show field.
Don's car was delivered to the show field after some body repairs.
I'm told he was extremely happy to have it back.

Last, but not least!
The Mid Atlantic Chevelle show is held at the North East Community Park in North East, Maryland. It sits right on the North East Creek and is a great venue for a car show. Later in the year, another car show is held here.
Lots of horsepower over in the marina next to the show field.
That's all for now.

Great pictures, Rick Looks like some really outstanding iron at that show. And I think I understand how Evelyn got her nickname

I only stayed for less than 5 minutes, had lots of work to do. But I think I heard some folks talking about V6 Camaros, and Chuck trying to redirect the conversation back to Chevelles.

Will I ever get to see water in the Salt River? Or the Gila River? They're always dry.

Only on rare occasions....earlier this year Roosevelt Lake went over capacity for the first time in many years, so they released a bunch of water down the Salt. The only other time you'll see it is in the event of runoff from very heavy rains, and that doesn't happen too often, either
