The 2010 Ames Performance Tri-Power Pontiac Nationals

When you have such clean lines from the factory like this '56 Chieftain displays, not much needs to be done to really set them off. Smooth black paint, subtle graphics, the right stance, and a set of American TorqThrust II wheels had Jim and Judy Philbeck's looking just right.

Code Red is a '72 Pro Touring Trans Am that really delivers on all fronts. Bob Bertelsen built the car himself, and the workmanship is nothing short of amazing. Power comes from a 416ci Mast Motorsports L99 hooked to a paddle-shifted 4L80E.

Gary Zimmerman of Dundee, Ohio, brought out his extremely rare '72 GTO pillared coupe, a one-year-only body style for the Second-Generation GTO, which reverted back to a LeMans option package. It is one of just 134 built.

Swap meet gems were in abundance in Norwalk, prompting some fairly humorous, albeit innovative, transporting methods. The new owner of this '64 GTO hood wasn't about to let a good deal pass him by!

Fourth-Gen Firebirds came from the factory just itching to be modified. All three of these Ram Air Trans Ams have felt the personalizing touch of their owners' hands. Robbie and Cecelia Lewis' '02 Sunset Orange Metallic WS6 features a host of mechanical modifications and an ostrich-skin interior. Bill and Brenda Downing's '02 WS6 features a host of engine upgrades, along with custom wheels and paint, while Terry Greenleaf's red '00 Trans Am is stock on the outside (except for the wheels), yet packs a big punch under the hood.

Arnie Beswick's '69 Righteous Judge Pro Stock GTO was seen at the APPN Manufacturer's Midway area and it still looks great.
