Wasn't sure what to expect at the Roadster Rally on the Ocean City NJ Boardwalk, but there were some interesting roadsters hidden among the bazillion Miatas.
Full album:
https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjBv82s
Some of the standouts to me:
The star of the show was this 1936 Auburn 852SC Boattail Speedster:
IMG_8799a
IMG_8862
Not one, but two Tesla Roadsters:
IMG_8890
IMG_8749
1955 Jaguar XK140 MC OTS:
IMG_8991
IMG_8993
And there were two MG F's, one a LHD, one a RHD:
IMG_8772
IMG_8967
And a pair of Morgans, a 1958 Plus 4 and a 1968 4/4:
IMG_8907
IMG_8914
I'll probably do another post from this show. There were a bunch of Austin-Healeys and MG's, and some other goodies.

Same day as the last post, this one I arrived late, so it seemed a lot of the cars left. The venue for this one is kind of cool, it is a brew pub next to a local airport, with older factory buildings, so it feels very steam-punk.

Working on my 2023 pics (I'm up to August), and just finished adding a show that some may have interest in. It was a Fire Muster, featuring antique/classic fire trucks and other emergency vehicles.
Nice presentation, night cub

Yep, the Aherens-Fox fire truck has the pumper at the front.
@Baube: Yep, you can find these headlights at the cowl area.

I finally finished all my pics from 2023, and have started working on this year's shows. First one was a local car cruise, their opening one for the year in April.

Wasn't a lot of new cars for me, but here are a few:
1954 Chrysler New Yorker DeLuxe with some modifications:

Porsche 911, but I'm not sure of the year. Plate returns nothing, so I think it's older than 1981. And it has no fog lights, so maybe older?:

1936 Oldsmobile Sports Coupe:

A cool looking 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 Convertible:

And a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Convertible by Droptop Customs, I tried looking this one up but couldn't find out more details. Usually I focus on the older cars, but since this one was converted, I found it interesting:
