Unbelievable. The 24th Annual Indian Uprising goes in the books as a monster success. 452 Pontiacs all on the same field. Tons of money raised for children's charity and a lot of happy faces walking around the Dupage Expo Center. It just doesn't get any better.

A very sincere thank you to all everyone who supported the show and made it such a success!

We talked crap about everyone. Didn't matter if they were there or not. Right Jim. The award winning yellow car was really looking good today

Alright Craig your right we did talk crap about everyone and had fun at there expence.I had a great time so did the two newbie's I brought with me who said that they will be back next year with friends with Ponhcos. My only regret was not trying the Home brew of Applecider,but I had a long drive home. Maybe next year when I bring the Yellow car I'll come a day earlier so that I can have some.How many SD-455 car's did you see there ?

Here are some pics I took. Not a complete representation of the event, but just some stuff I stopped to photograph.

Jim, yours was the only SD at the show. Sad thing is there are no less than 8 SD cars within 10 miles of this show and none of them came out.

I will say one thing about Jim's 1974 455SD Formula.

That's a survivor car! Original paint, original paint on engine, and never out of bay!

Plus he drove it from Wisconsin and shared the documentation on this beauty. Still has the knock outs from spare keys from GM! All the pieces that came from factory and a dealer emblem on trunk!

Best of show would have been my award!

BTW: Tim makes good apple pie!

That black Judge was definitely a stunner! Impressive work by Tri Power Automotive.

What a great weekend! Thanks, Paul, et al.

Remember, if your car was registered at the show, check your goodie-bag for the RediRad flier...on it, you'll find a special discount code for free shipping until the end of September. Don't wait!

I didn't stay for awards again. My bad, but it's more the cruise there and back.

Glad to see a 70 Judge getting the top award!

Big show brought some great cars and better people!
