Corvettes: American Icon

I saw this really amazing Vette today. Unfortunately it was going the opposite way of me. It was a first generation and it had some aftermarket parts on it. It was a stunner. That got me thinking about some of the nice Vettes I’ve seen over the years. Corvettes are a love or hate car. …

The new Dodge Challenger is hugely popular among Mopar enthusiast and it’s no secret why. Great looks, great ride, lots of power, and the best sounding engine in production today make for one heck of a nice ride. Now add some custom things from the Mopar catalog, a few other aftermarket pieces, a custom stereo, and nice set of wheels and you have one hell of a nice dodge Challenger RT. That was the case with this black beauty I stumbled on at the Barry Apple Festival.

It seemed every where I looked on this Challenger I found something else that had been done. Just little things that all add up to a huge difference in what is already a stunning car. The total package has to be one of the coolest Challengers I’ve seen yet.

It is pretty rare we look at imports here on Infinite Garage. Nothing wrong with them or anything like that it is just we prefer big honking V8s and the occasional slant six. However there were a few imports of note at the Barry Apple Festival so I thought I would dedicate an entire article to them.

Ferrari-430-Scudaria

I was pretty surprised to see a Ferrari 430 Scudaria at the Barry Apple Festival car show. $200,000 dollar cars aren’t exactly crawling around in my neck of the woods but alas here one sits. It was pretty tough to get a good photo of it because as you can image it was quite popular with the crowd.

Just off interstate 72, they put on a very nice car show. It would be a surprise for many to see so many cars of such high quality converge on the little town of Barry, Illinois This year the Barry Apple Festival Car Show was plagued by cool (ok cold) and rainy weather but that did not dampen the spirits or the turn out at the show. So today will be part one of several parts of this show.

Admittedly I did not have the time I would have like to have spent at the show. I felt a bit rushed but I managed to capture some really great rides despite the time crunch, weather, and big crowds. The show is held on the downtown streets of the town and it seemed every turn I took afforded me new wonders of horsepower to photograph. So for today we will take a look at just a few of those great cars.
