2010 CLEVELAND AUTO RAMA PICTURES

[Mr. Chevy]

Went to the Cleveland Auto Rama Show last night. The Northern Ohio Chevelle Club put together another cool display this year. Their theme was a car wash. One of the members was actually able to acquire some actual old car wash pieces from a defunct car wash.

There is a unrestored 70 Chevelle going into the start of the wash and a restored, shiny 70 Chevelle coming out the other end.. Pretty clever idea..

Enjoy the pics... I will be posting more later. Rich http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

My Buddy's 70 Chevelle SS that I had previously posted pictures on, putting the body on the frame. The car is all done and came out great!!

The slick on here is an old Racemaster from 1970. The owner told me that he has had them for years and they are in great shape.

Wow, some cool cars there. Love the Red/Black '69 velle - sure would look nice next to mine. Thanks for the shots guys and thanks for the hi-beam, um-er headlight shot Rich! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

[BUIZILLA]

one of my distant cousins in Louisville had a red 375 exactly like that, but his was a bench seat, that looks like buckets though.. my whole family is from there, St Matthews and Anchorage, and I was born there, we/they used to hit a drive in eatery over by the zoo every weekend, I spent about every weekend in that car in the summer of '70... what are the odd's.. his brother (my other cousin) had an Eliminator Cougar..

Great pix Rich & Mike.
I like the carwash theme,and not cause it's featuring a 70 Chevelle,but any car would still garnish my favouritism towards it.
Nice!

[72convertibless454]

Thanks for all the great comments guys, and thanks for posting the photos Rich. I had a lot of fun organizing this display. We have a great club. I got the idea for the window art the day before the show. I snatched the vacuum, stop light, and brushes while the car wash was being torn down, my pal Gary and I worked around the bulldozers... LOL

[m22mike]

Mark
The car wash was cool, and you could tell it was work.
See you at the Chevelle show http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif
