Andreas, looks like there will be a Enzo there. Here is the quote from the owner of the place: As the owner of Autowerks I am looking forward to holding this event. My reach is far and widespread as for I have owned and still own many, many cars. On hand I will have at least one Batmobile, an Enzo, several Lambos, several Vipers, an Ariel Atom or two, lots of old school muscle as well as many others.

The show is being well recieved and the weather looks fantastic. I originally hoped for 100+ cars but it now appears that it will be in the 200+ range. I expect a wide array of cars from old school to exotic. In addition to all the entrants I will have quite a few of my cars there which accounts for 20+ interesting pieces. Look forward to seeing you all at my shop on Saturday. Ron Durchin Autowerks of Northbrook
