The Syracuse Nationals is in large part a showcase for customized cars, but many are painstakingly restored as well. Here is a sampling, from as early as the 1930's through the late 1970's.

"Massive" only begins to describe this 229 inch long, 4470-lb. behemoth.
Oldsmobile
1958 Super 88
1970 Cutlass Convertible
1971 Cutlass
I admit to having a bit of a soft spot for this era of Olds Cutlass. My father had a 1971 Cutlass Supreme, and I still remember the day he brought it home. Sadly, it didn't last long enough for me to inherit when it came time for me to get my license.
1968 Vista Cruiser
If you grew up in the US anytime between the mid-1960's and the late 1970's, you knew these cars well. They seemed to be in every other family's driveway. The best were the ones with the optional fold-away rear-facing seat - THAT was the seat you wanted to ride in!
Plymouth
1940 Sedan
1965 Satellite
Pretty sure the cell phone holder isn't period correct. Can't explain the severed doll head.
Making a bit of a statement with that sticker in the window, eh?
Valliant Scamp
Pontiac
1958 Chieftan
1957 Star Chief
Walkaround
