On a lark, I decided to head over on my little Honda to the weekly meet at the Smithfield, RI A&W. My bike gathered a small crowd as it often does whenever I bring it to a show, and of course people were compelled to wistfully tell me about their own little Hondas, which are now long gone. But that’s not the point of this post; this is about the cars that were there. It’s a small show for sure, but there were some interesting vehicles present. Here’s my favorites:

A Buick Grand National in amazing condition…especially with 100k on the odometer! There were two present at the show.

A Camaro SS convertible pace car.

A Chevy Impala convertible. We can’t stop here, this is bat country!

A Ford Torino GT

Cute, Phoebe-sized Ford Anglia hot rod.

A gorgeous Packard Standard Eight Station Wagon. I talked with the owner for a while and he opened the hood to show me the flathead straight eight motor (which I had never seen in person before). That car was soon joined by…

A Packard 1934 Eleventh Series Super Eight Model 1104 seven-passenger touring car.

A very stylish Pontiac Executive

And one of my favorite muscle cars, a Plymouth Duster 340.

The rest of my photos from that night can be seen here.
