This year the number was over 500 and filled both sides of the street downtown for 8 city blocks. I had heard about the show an wanted to see it for myself so we took the red car down. Marlene and I went down on Friday and registered before going on the cruise to Olds. We were able to have a good visit with my cousin who lived in Didsbury. Saturday morning the cars started being parked at 7 AM. We got parked and cleaned up the car and then took a walk (one of many) to look at the cars. Most of them were new to me. There were a good number of newer muscle cars like the dodge hellcats, mustang, corvettes, and cameros but I was interested in the older ones.
