A few photos of fine examples of 1950 vintage vehicles in attendance at this year's Caladium Festival Car Show held on 7-30-2022. Also included is a copy of a T-shirt design from the first car show I entered with my 1933 Chevy streetrod. That show, in 2001, was organized and promoted by a long-time friend of mine, John Stage, and held in the Catskill Mountain region of New York State.

What a great set! I especially liked the '55 Buick. I had the '54 hardtop model in college. I finally sold it for $40--plus $2 for the jack. Good days then. Wish I had that car today.

Good morning "FL",
As usual your images are spectacular. I realize you alone can't solve my problem / concern but with all of the other absolutely beautiful car images posted here @ UHH why won't many of the car lovers / photogs also include images of the vehicles interiors / dashboards / cockpits? Many times these interior features are (at least to me) as great and memorable as the exteriors.
Just wondering.
All the very best to you and yours,
Terry

The judges liked it as well and it took home an award.

Terry, glad you enjoyed the photos and thanks for your kind words. In many cases, I do try to photograph the interiors (and engines) of vehicles that are particularly well finished and/or unique in their design. I'll try to remember to take more interior photos at upcoming events that I attend. Included here is a photo I have of the interior of my 1933 Chevy Streetrod which remains in the same condition as when the car was finished in 1995 and purchased by me in 1999.
