DUST-OFF 2001

The Heart of America Chapter's Spring Dust-Off was a great event, featuring 41 registered cars. We had a lot of the Cutlass/442/Hurst Olds line represented, but there were a lot of other varities there, including 88's, 98's, a 1901 Curved Dash, and a 1936 street rod among others. Mr. Paul Broome, our gracious sponsor, as always went above and beyond the call of duty by providing his lot and showroom for the event, as well as Oldsmobile related articles to see for the club and deciding who would walk away with the Sponsor's Choice award.
