A 1969 Camaro Z/28 with a cowl induction hood at the 2010 Adirondack Nats. This is one of Chevy’s all-time greats, and won the Trans Am titles in 1968 and 1969. It is a car which is better suited for a racing circuit than a drag strip, which is unusual for a muscle car.

A ‘75 Corvette Stingray powered by a built and blown 350
A 1985 Renault Alpine Turbo 2. These are excellent hot hatches, and are powered by a mid-mounted I-4. The design was created with rally racing in mind, and immediately proved itself by winning the Monte Carlo Rally in it’s first-ever race in 1981(with the original Turbo 1 variant).

A 502-powered and Ram Jet supercharged Chevelle SS at Morris...
A 1960 Ford Thunderbird at the 2010 Rotterdam Elks car show. This was the first year for the Thunderbird to be a 4-seater, a move which was seen by some as controversial. Originally the T-bird was designed as a pure sports car to directly compete with the Corvette, but within a few years became more of a luxury car then a performance car.
No idea what this was originally but it looks awesome now
An extremely rare Fiat 8V Ghia Supersonic on display along with a rebuilt engine at Saratoga Auto Museum’s Forza Italia! exhibit. The engine is a 2.0 liter V-8 with twin Weber carbs mated to a 4-speed transmission, a combination which proved successful in racing.

A 1960 Ford Thunderbird at the 2010 Rotterdam Elks car show....
The Porsche 968 was developed as an entry-level car to replace the 944, and was produced for just a few years(1992-1995). A noticeable difference between this and the 944 it replaced is the lack of flip-up headlights. The year after this went out of production, the Boxster took over as the entry-level Porsche and remains in production to this day.
A ‘57 Bel Air sedan at the 2011 Cole’s Collision car...
A 502-powered and Ram Jet supercharged Chevelle SS at Morris Ford’s 2010 car show. This thing must absolutely shred tires

A third-gen Cadillac Eldorado at the 2011 Cadillac and Hudson...
A 1972 Maserati Ghibli at Saratoga Auto Museum. It’s closest rival was the Ferrari Daytona, which was a bit quicker than it. However, it was an extremely smooth ride. Power came through a quad-cam V-8 mated to a 5-speed transmission.

A pair of VW Golf tuners at the 2010 Clarkson University spring car show. These were some of the first hot hatches to be made, and helped define what a hot hatch really is. The quickest Golf model is the all wheel drive Golf R32, which is powered by a rev-happy 3.2 liter V-6.

The Lotus Elise has been a mainstay of Lotus’ lineup since first being introduced in 1996. These are very lightweight, nimble cars that possess some of the best handling characteristics of any production car. They are understandably very popular with the track day and autocross crowd.

Yet another shot of the 2010 Final Edition Dodge Viper. The end of second-gen Viper production is truly the end of an era, as these were the last old-school muscle cars which lack any form of traction control. In such a powerful car, that must be a real challenge to handle

A Kelmark GT “Ferrari”, which is essentially a kit-car update of the Ferrari Dino design. This one is a 1982, and is powered by a rotary engine.

A very rare 1934 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300, one of 188 built from 1931 to 1934, at the Saratoga Auto Museum. This is one of the very few cars which was able to compete with Bugattis with success, and they were the choice of most of Italy’s most talented drivers of the day. The design of this car is absolutely beautiful, and really has to be seen in person to fully appreciate.

A ‘66 Pontiac GTO. These were highly innovative cars at the time, and were powered either by a 389 or 400 c.i. V-8, making them a force to be reckoned with at the drag strip. Another interesting feature of these cars is that Pontiac decided to produce the nose of the car out of rubber in an effort to improve safety.

Nose view of the 1934 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300. A particularly impressive achievement of this car is winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1932 and 1934. With such excellent running gear and streamlined body shape this is no surprise.

The Pontiac Fiero was a unique sports car sold for just 5 years. Today it is a popular starting point for kit cars due to it’s mid-engine configuration and affordability. The owners of this one really kept it clean, you don’t see too many of these cars babied so much.

A ‘62 Porsche 356 coupe. This was a third-gen variant of the very first model Porche ever put into production, and looks very similar to the VW Beetle from which it was derived. It’s replacement was the 911, which is one of the most important sports cars in history and is still being made today.
This Camaro Z/28 has been given the full drag race treatment,...
A 1959 Ford Fairlane Custom 300. The Custom 300 was a pretty rare option, with only 874 total being built with it. It deleted certain equipment from the car so that it may be customized by the owner at a cheaper cost than it would have been to remove the equipment on their own. They were mostly purchased to be used as taxis or police cars.

An MG TD roadster at the 2010 Auto Haus Open Haus. After a production run lasting from 1936 to 1955, they were replaced by the hugely successful MGA roadster. 0-60 came in 18.2 seconds from a little 1.3 liter I-4 engine.

A 1967 Camaro SS at the Adirondack Nats. This show is just indescribably awesome. The 2000 car show field sells out around 355 days in advance, and as a result the entire town of Lake George and every hotel parking lot in a 45 minute radius becomes one massive car show. This car was spotted about 2 miles away from the show on the outskirts of Lake George Village, and you can see the hotel lots in

The first of these sold went to James Glickenhaus, who is famous for commissioning the Ferrari P4/5 and P4/5C one-offs based on the Enzo. 0-60 comes in a bit over 4 seconds courtesy of a Ferrari/Maserati developed 4.7 liter V-8.
