Perfect weather, 12,000 cars equals overload. I kept forgetting to take pics. The '31 Slant Window Town Sedan that I built in the 70's was there pretty much unchanged. So was the Chrysler Tub and the '28 Reo I built and sold. I drove the Fiat on Friday and the Rover on Saturday. Here's some random shots you might enjoy.

Here's the rest of the pics. The car with the unusual case in it was steam punk in character.

Sunday Sunday

Went back Sunday morning for a little more viewing pleasure. Drove the Fiat. Took some pics of interesting or unusual machines.

Well done E-man on the vampire kit. I couldn't figure it out. The car had many steam punk elements to it and was worth a 10 minute walk around.

Yes, I get a kick out of seeing cars I built at events. It is especially gratifying to hear from the new owners how much they are enjoying the vehicles. There was probably a couple other cars I built out there but I didn't run across them.

You all might have noticed I took pics of a lot of "finned" Mopars. The darn things just stand out in a crowd of cars.

There were some top end builders like Rad Rides by Troy and Kendig showing off their latest fantastic creations. But, by and large this is a "driver's" show. Don't see many "Don't Touch" signs or anal car owners. It's simply fun.
