Car Day '11 (ton of pics - you've been warned)

Hello everyone,

You may remember last year I posted pictures and some video of how we celebrate our own little car show every year, called Car Day . This year was no different as we hauled out all 10 of our cars for pictures. Some of the same this year, some additions and subtractions (RIP '95 Riviera :roll: ). It wasn't really sunny at all that day, but our own little personal show came out nice! I hope you enjoy!














































































Here's some individuals:

'73 Century GS 455 Stage 1


'86 Regal T-type


'87 Regal Limited 455


'88 Lesabre T-type


'89 Lesabre T-type


'89 Reatta


'04 Regal GS


'07 Rainier V8


'04 Cavalier


'00 Bonneville SSEi






As always, thanks for looking!

Great !!! My vote goes to the '73 Century GS

Wow Thats a nice line up! How do you guys get your wheels and fender wells so clean? I have a 1/2 mile gravel driveway that gets them really dirty. The Lesabre T-Type is the coolest lesabre in my opinion! I wish my family did this!

Great looking cars! It must have taken a long time to clean them up.

Thanks for sharing your Car Day...all beautiful and clean...hard to choose a favorite!

Wow! nice cars good livin' beautiful!

I'm really liking those Lesabre T-Types.

They are giving me a similar impression I got from the VW Corrado. Once I saw it, I thought it was a costomized model but in actuality it's its own model.

Wow thanks guys! I knew a group like this might appreciate a nice little collection. My dad and I worked hard to get these cars and we work hard to keep them clean and on the road.

It did take a long time that day to get them all cleaned up and together. Dad was at work for most of the morning and early afternoon so I set about getting the cars cleaned up. Wiped off the Bonneville and Lesabre, washed and waxed the gray Regal, wiped off the Regal T-type, waxed the GS, and wiped off the black Lesabre. It was a ton of work, but worth it. I love lining them up like that and just appreciating them.

So how do you decide what to drive? I would be late wherever I went if I had that many cars to choose from (now I get why women with large shoe collections are always late )

I'll have that one day. Doesn't help my immediate family isn't big into cars and what not.

Awesome line up man! nice to see!

Haha deciding what to drive. Depends on the weather! If we have a nice streak of weather I'll usually swap a car every 2 or 3 days, just to make sure they get used. And i find that to be important, using them. A lot of people just put them in a garage and keep the miles off them. As far as I'm concerned, cars are for fun and just because they get used doesn't mean they have to fall to pieces. Sure, it's a lot of work but it comes with the desire to have variety and keep classics.

I make time to get this all done .

Nice to see so many cars in such clean condition!

Very nice. I love the 86 regal T-type`s colour.

Thanks guys! I agree....that color on the '86 Regal is something else. Looks black in the shade and a really rice metallic purple in the sun. Same color as my Riviera ( ) .

Andy - what's neat about the Lesabre T-type is it was never considered a separate model, but an option package on a Lesabre Custom. If you look at the window stickers, they aren't called T-types, they're called Customs. It's goofy. On the right side of the window stickers it shows 'T-type package' and rattles off a huge list of custom things. Sitting a regular lesabre along a T-type is light night and day - there's so much visually different, not even counting engine/trans and suspension upgrades.

Those Regal's and Lesabre's are looking real good. Can tell they have been taken care of.

Personally, I like them all... but if i had my choice I would take the 03 Regal GS, just something I've always liked about those cars.

Great pics!!! Love that Bonneville.

I need to get more of my rides soon. This one is for Hometown.

Ummmmm Ummmmm....Love that shine
