I'm sellin' my orphan, lol. Selling it for basically the same reason I bought it. Weird huh?

 

Studes are orphans, I'm in a Stude club, love going to Stude shows and other orphans.
My local chapter plans 2 meets a year with the Hudson and Packard clubs, so 3 sets of orphans are out on the road.

 

The Northwest Corvair club usually hosts an annual "discontinued and orphan" car show in Issaquah, WA ( http://www.triplexrootbeer.com/ ). They're always sure to invite us Hudson owners and others. Attendance isn't anything like Ypsilanti looks to be. I'd love to make it back there for that some time. I've been to all make Michigan shows in Hickory Corners and Coopersville which have had impressive turnouts and a great ***ortment of cars.

 

that 50 Checker would be so cool 2 doored and chopped, Westerguard style!

 

I've attended the Orphan Car Show in Ypsilanti Mich a couple times with my Studebaker. Was held June 1st this year. Always a good show, with a different featured marque every year.

 

I seem to have a rather large collection of orphan cars Anglia, Thames,AMC,Hudson,Nash,British Ford,Brazillian Chevy,Crosley, and a BSA bobber . I'm a strange fu@k and love strange cool cars I love Orphan car shows and attend whenever I can , but the one here in Albuquerque is tiny because the people running it are " OLD " and have a hard time even doing flyers let alone the internet . The show is only once a year and was held in the Wallmart lot this last time and only had 13 cars . There is a HUGE amount of orphan cars here , and it's a shame this show is not better organised

 

Corvairs Northwest is indeed hosting the 15th Annual Orphan and Discontinued Car Show but this year it's at Country Village in Bothell, WA.

Some of those really aren't orphans. Corvair's for example. The parent company is still around.

 

Corvairs fall under the discontinued part of the show.

Cool. I will try to get my Stude out there for the show. Way closer than Issaquah.
