    A couple of you guys have been to this show before. Kenny took some great pictures a couple years ago. Fun show with a good mix of cars. 9am to 3 pm. I will say though that you should get there early as the past few years they have run out of space. Below is a link to the fort with directions:

    I met you there in '05 Kenny. You had to excuse yourself from explaining the TR to go up and get an award.
    Great show of course, I will try to make it this year.

    If the weather looks good we'll set up a rendevous point and hope you can make it.

    Between Ray and Kenny, we should have just gone for a drive on some tristy roads...Too many every day cars there. How nice to see an original Pinto! And to have Ray's car share an award with something unmentionable.
    Nice to meet Ray and had a great time driving down and back with Kenny and his mint TR. That car is all engine and red paint.

    Lots of fun anyways.

    Hmmmm...the fix was in. That would be the problem with shows not judged by real judges.
    I am there because I might learn something talking to other car owners, and to see other cool or interesting machinery.
    Here are some pics, should have taken more.
    the last one is an "American Lafrance" formerly a firetruck, with many handmade parts including aluminum cast wheels that exactly duplicate the old wood wheels. Probably finished behind the mustangs...
