Greetings. My first time posting. I was eager to attend this show so I finally pulled the trigger to go. I was very much looking forward to seeing some nice examples of 68-72 Novas. I had heard there were always 550+ cars at this show.
Is it normal not to have a popular car like this not represented at all? There wasn't a single 68-72 Nova in attendance.

The feature cars are always in flux at the show. There were only a few second generation Camaros this year, also. Don't worry, next year there may be 30 Novas. The GTO's were in abundance this year and that was an amazing display.

I'm hoping to get my '68 there in a year (well, it might be 2 at this rate!)

We have had lot's of Super Kool Novas over the years of all generations: Yenko 427s, Deuces, Dick Harrell, Fred Gibb, Bill Thomas, Big Blocks, small blocks, L78s, SS 350. Restored, Day II, Survivors and even had a Little old lady survivor 4 cly coupe one year.

So get your Novas ready for next year! See you at MCACN 2025!

The show was really heavy on MOPAR's this year, and other than Camaro's and Corvette's a bit light on Chevy's in general I thought.
The only '67 Chevelle's I saw besides mine were Jeff Helms and Gary Gerstner's red cars next to me in the High School Reunion Display. (Which was awesome!)

Each and every year is different, which is what makes the MCACN show unique. As Stefano stated, over the years we have had numerous Novas of various years, including every color Yenko Deuce.

Since we have VERY high standards, when you don't see any particular make or model represented it is usually because prime examples that have not been shown with us previously were not found or did not apply.

I can say that there is one joining is for Unveiling for the 2025 show that was previously shown in our Barn Finds and Hidden Gems from the Phil Mitchell Collection that will certainly make any Nova fan drool.
