oldies? songs for a classic car show?

The Marcel's, the Coasters, the Drifters, the Moonglows, Little Anthony and the Imperials , The Miracles, The "5" Royales , The Flamingos , The Impressions , The Dells, The Cadillacs, The Penguins, The Midnighters, the Teenagers, The Platter, The Capris, Dion and the Belmonts, the Earls, and The Tokens.

Hope I helped. =]

If you really MEAN doo-wop, then you're talking mostly music from about 1950-1962.

The site below has a pretty good list of 100 doo-wop songs.

If you really just mean "oldies" then I'd go with the 2 CD American Graffiti soundtrack, a couple good Motown compilations, a CD of Elvis Presley hits, and the soundtrack to Forrest Gump and you'll have a pretty good set of stuff to play without bringing a ton of discs.

If you are bringing a computer and playing MP3s...or burning CDs to take, I'll give you my own personal 100 suggestions for a general oldies list (I did 10 years of oldies radio):
