I really enjoyed mine. It's just a damn shame they are worthless and certain key parts are very tough to find.

Very cool thanks. I went with the wife every year starting in 1971 while we lived there.
Wife got to see Honda cars for the first time in 71 and said that's what she wanted if she ever had to drive.

Look at the 1976 show. A friend of mine called it 'The Auto Show Presented by the Partridge Family'.

Epic link, dude. Thanks!
