World of Wheels 2010 Pics

Well, I made it there. I wasn't planning on going, but the wife stayed with the wee ones feeling under the weather I went with my dad. It was smaller that some years, but there were more high-dollar cars.

Here are two pics for now:



I put wooden running boards on my old Chevy 4X4 several years ago. I did it more out of being too cheap to pay three hundred bucks for something I would knock off driving through the field behind my house than for a fashion statement. It is good to see some street rodders are doing the same.




And, when was the last time you saw a twin-turbo Buick in a street rod. Yes, I said a Buick.

Look for more pics from the event soon.

Oh one more thing. We are near the beginning of planning for our show this year. What would you like to see? A full-blown show like we did the past two years? One big cruise night? One cruise night a month? Something completely different?

There are a few other changes going on out there in the local car show scene. Let me know what you hear.

Shifting gears and burning rubber,
