    Hi Ben,

    Are you attending the Lehigh Valley cars and coffee before heading to Reading? I'd love to ride with you from Lehigh Valley to the Reading Concours show. Or, if you still have an open seat, I could meet you at a location that is already on your way.

    I finally have a day off on Sunday and I'd like to make it to both of these events. The weather looks great for Sunday so there should be a great turnout.

    Thanks,
    Eric

    This is probably a dumb question but can anyone come and walk around or is it a closed event? I thought I heard in the past it was not open to the public.

    I believe it's open, hope so because I'll be buying a ticket at the door. Think it's $30ish?

    Yup, you pull in and they stop your car and you pay $30. Then pull around to the parking lot above the show field and you're good to go.

    Great day. Great show. Packed with beautiful machinery.

    Special thanks to the gang at Algar. Once again the ride up was lots of fun. I had an especially great time today as I have been MIA from C&C for a while so got to see tons of people I haven't seen in a while.

    Lots of nice modern machinery. Although there weren't many old cars what was there was top notch.

    Ben's Daytona Competition was totally friggin sick. Sounds were off the hook. Thanks for bringing it out. That quality of car is so few and far between it was an honor to get to see it.

    I'll put a bunch of stuff up over the next few days. Enjoy

    Starting with the newest puppy in town. What a beast.

    Awesome show! sharing a pic from early on, before the field filled up. Great venue and tribute to the show's founder, Pietro (RIP), with all the horns blasting in memoriam. Did anyone take a video of that?

    We have a video of the cars running their engines and the horns. Shoot me an email if you want a copy of the video (assuming I can figure out how to send the video from the iPad).

    As I told you at the show... Your T is probably cosmetically the nicest in existence. You need to take that to the nationals. Congrats!

    Joe, I didn't want to say anything, but in tribute to Pietro every Testa Rossa got Platinum. I heard there was a 78 Chevy Nova in the parking lot that got Platinum. :)
