The GTO looks like it may be one of the Knafel Tin Indians, is that a 68-72 Nova in the far lane between the goat and the '72 'Velle?
The newest car in the pic appears to be the '79 up Rustang, the custom 'Vette roadster obviously a '75 and earlier also looks like maybe 68/69 style fender vents?
The '69 Velle Post car is a beauty and even the B90 and Centerlines look pretty good from here in 2016.
Best of luck whatever's up!

Hey, that's my Chevelle! That's what it looked like when I first bought it back in '96. The track is Pennfield , NB.
The Corvette and Chevelle were owned by 2 brothers in Fredericton at the time. Seems to me the Corvette was originally a 427 car, not sure which hp rating.
The GTO is a 455 HO post car.
I'm going to guess the year of the photo somewhere around mid to late 80's.

Barry,
I thought she was either Rick's Chevelle or your Chevelle <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif
If you zoom in on the picture....appears there was a for sale sign on the quarter glass?
Have you seen this picture before?

Here's a picture of it when I lived in Edmonton, centerlines and custom interior still in it. The engine is an LS-7 that I swapped in.

Based on the '85 or '86 Mustang GT in the far lane, you're dead on.

I never saw that picture before Dan. That probably is a for sale in the 1/4 window. I called about the car in 1985 or 86. He was asking $9000 for the car at the time, it might as well have been $90,000 with my meagre earnings. (early in my military life)
I ended up buying the car 10 years later from a different owner. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

The vette is a 68... or at least the doors are 68. The key way to tell is the button for locking and opening.
