(Words and photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>Third gallery of six so you\u2019re reaching the half-way point.\u00a0 In here we\u2019re going to move from the area normally called \u2018survivors alley\u2019 and transition more on to the general open floor.<\/p>\n

The 1954 BelAir \u2018House Car\u2019 was something I\u2019d never even heard of.\u00a0 5 were built and started life as a 4dr with a 235 six and a 3-speed.\u00a0 The living quarters look huge sitting on this chassis and though it seems very underpowered, back then it was about the road trip.\u00a0 Pull off on a wayside and take yourself a nap.\u00a0 Definitely fits the \u2018different\u2019 category.\u00a0 Check out this 90s paint on an 80s Chrysler Conquest (Mitsu Starion).\u00a0 Back in the day those flared fenders of the wide-body TSi were a cool feature for a now-forgotten car.\u00a0 What would you do with this one\u2026?<\/p>\n

The blue straight-axle \u201957 was not being subtle about its attitude.\u00a0 It seems to have the hardware to back that image as well and it drew lots of admirers.\u00a0 The yellow, rough-around-the-edges Demon is a bracket bomber and judging by the hardware is a lethal combination for turning on the win light.\u00a0 Of course the driver being named the ET Bracket Driver of the Year might have a small part in that.<\/p>\n

We saw several early Mustangs with late-model Ford grunt swapped in.\u00a0 All of them looked clean and we can\u2019t knock the driveability enhancement a swap like this provides.\u00a0 Staying on Ford look at this awesome 1983 F250HD complete with a 460 and restored 16.5 slots.\u00a0 All it needs now is a headache rack and a toolbox.\u00a0 The triple-black \u201968 Firebird ragtop had us taking a second and third look at it as we wandered the show.\u00a0 Definitely a looker.\u00a0 We finish off this collection with some C4s, a red SD 455, and several more excellent Firebirds.<\/p>\n

Three more galleries to go.\u00a0 Come back and see.<\/p>\n
