Some Absolute Classics Were On Hand In Mt. Orab

 The 11th VFW Post 9772 Car Show held at Mt. Orab Village Park brought in over 125 amazing vehicles on a beautiful late summer day. With that many cars and trucks on hand there was little doubt that a good number of familiar classics would be on hand and that was surely the case. Among the rides on display was a Chevy Camaro, a 1957 Impala, a 1957 Ford Fairlane, a 1937 Ford Sedan, a 1967 Camaro Super Sport, slick little kit car, and a Packard convertible.

Mr. Orab Village Park Saw Plenty Of Trucks

The number of old and vintage trucks showing up at old car events has increased over the years. Perhaps it is because the way people view modern trucks as something more than work vehicles could be one reason why. Maybe it is because purchasing an old truck is generally less expensive than a comparable car. Whatever the reason, it's always good to see a nice collection of trucks roll into an event. The 11th VFW Post 9772 Car Show held at Mr. Orab Village Park was no exception. Among the trucks on hand was a 1953 Ford F-100, as well as a couple of more modern Chevys, a well worn Ford F-100, a 1936 Ford truck, a 1954 Chevy 80 diesel truck powered by Cummins, and a 1972 Chevy Cheyenne.

Bel Airs Came to Mt. Orab

Mt. Orab Village Park played host to the 11th Annual VFW Post 9772 Car Show that attracted over 125 vehicles to help benefit the veteran's group. As is usually the case when an open show attracts this many cars and trucks, there will be a good selection of Chevrolet Bel Airs. Chevy introduced the Bel Air in 1950 as one of their first all-new designs following World War II. While the car sold through the 1981 model year, it is the second generation, those cars rolled out between 1955 and 1957, that are the most iconic and most popular at car shows. Here are the Bel Airs that took part in this event.

Wrapping Up Headin' For the Hill For Now

With over 175 cars and trucks rolling into North College Hill for this year's Headin' For the Hill car show, it is going to take more posts than I have time for right now to show them all. So in order to get to some of the other great shows we've had this season this will be the last post from this event for now. Among the cars on display was a 1976 Dodge Aspen, a 1966 Dodge Dart convertible, a Chevy Nova, a Pontiac Trans Am, a Plymouth Volare, an Oldsmobile 442, and a 1989 Dodge Raider.

Good Variety At North College Hill

North College Hill Saw Plenty of Mid-Century Chevrolet Cars

Coming out of World War II it took the automobile factories some time to re-tool for civilian production following years of building military supplies to help win the war. The first cars in the mid to late 1940s that were released were essentially pre-war vehicles with only slight cosmetic alterations. That all changed by the 1950s and Chevrolet proved to have a highly appealing line. They quickly became the biggest selling car line in America and there are many fans of those vehicles today. In fact, a large contingent of those cars were on hand for the Headin' For the Hills show. Among them was a cool 1955 Bel Air station wagon. But there were plenty of other styles as well. Here are just some of the ones that were on display.
