I've only been to the Ferrari show in Brookline.
Some pricey stuff as you can imagine.

Mopar day at Great Lakes dragaway in Union Grove Wisconsin in 1981. Or 1982, maybe I went both years. I also won my first car show trophy there at one of those shows, presented to me by the late Broadway Bob. I still have it around here somewhere.

Joe Kidd Dodge near Cincinnati around 1983/4 or so. Great show, Rick Cain had his Yellow Hemi Superbird there, Debbie Clark had her 69 Hemi Bee, Mike Ott had his 68 Hemi Bee, a beautiful 69 Hemi RR from Indiana running Centerlines (R7/White interior) that I have seen at the Nats for years, the Burnt Orange Superbird and a bunch of other nice MoPars. Great show.

I was at that show or I was there in 1988. Traded a console tach for a '67 Barracuda cluster with 150mph speedo and tach...

First Mopar-only show was in 1982 at the fairgrounds in Antioch, CA.

1984 Mopar Nats at the Indy 500 track. I had gone to the Hot Rod and Car Craft shows for a couple of years and they were huge back then! But I decided I didn't have time to see all that brand-x crap to sift through to check out all the cool Mopars, so I decided to hitch hike down to Indy for an all Mopar show since I lived in Lafayette, IN and it was around 60 miles away. My Duster had 4.88 gears and I had no money for gas...LOL

p I the Mike Ott Hemi Superbee still around? Back in the very early 90's I had gotten a big color poster of that car. The car was red with dog dish hubcaps. Framed it and hanging in my room.

I loved his Bee, beautiful car and I believe it is still around. Debbie Clarks Hemi Bee has always been one of my favorite cars and I believe they were married to each other at one time?? Her Superbee was one of the early restorations that was done pretty correct and I believe it sold several years ago. Car was a nice original car out of Lexington, KY solid with a rash of door dings when it was bought.

I had just met my now wife and her brother was a vendor at Mopar Nationals. So we went to the one that was in Indianapolis. If I recall is was super chilly there because I had to buy my wife and I sweatshirts. I had a great time and enjoyed seeing so many cars. Especially when, back then, most of them were driven to the nationals.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Mine was Mopars at the Beach, after it outgrew Mayo Beach Park and moved to the Prince George's Equestrian Center in Upper Marlboro (MD). I'd first heard about it in 1986, but only after it had already happened.
I tried to go the last year it was at Mayo Beach, but got turned away because the park was over capacity. Finally made it to the show in '89. '92 was the last one.

Went to a Mopar day at Firebird Raceway in Boise. I can't even recall the year it was. I want to say mid to late 90's. They had a show and shine + drag racing classes for mopars based on bodystyle.
