Orinda Classic Car Show 2015

I stopped by for a quick visit on my way to work this morning. Nice stuff, as usual. About 180 cars.


This belongs to the organizer of the show who does it for local charities, a former neighbor of mine.





Another GT350.



1970 Mustangs are my favorites.



About half of the Camaros displayed.





Partial to Buicks...





This was cool. A 2011 Corvette with a 1963 split window body kit. Including donor car, engine and suspension mods, and GS wheels, this thing was $160K.

Rosso Rubino Dino. Older Italian guy who looked like the Largo (without the patch) from Thunderball drives the car regularly.





I didn't know they made Morgans like this.





This one guy has two Bullitt tribute cars. The Charger is fully loaded...



2007 GT3. Obligatory Porsche content...

I bet that Morgan is fun to toss around.

The more I see the early second generation Camaro the more I like that bodystyle.

I'm with you there. I also like the Firebirds of that generation-thought it'd be cool to have one like John Wayne's Firebird in "McQ".

Those are all nice cars but it's always cool to see something different like that recent Morgan.

Probably just coincidence. Did you walk up to the car and chat up the guy in the front seat?
