Only one SRT 10, not too many MOPARS, lots of older cars (over 300 registered!)...a few pictures for you to view:


This could be soooo nice but the owner just did not seem to care much:

Don't see many of these at shows for some reason, but he has the same tires as my Volvo (Goodyear Eagle F1's):

Beautiful day, great venue, lots of cars, lots of sights to see...and I got deep into a wonderful book: "Brothers", by Da Chen.

Thanks for thinking of me Roy.

It is so nice to see Cobra pictures now, and not have this deep lusting feeling. Now I can go into the garage and touch mine.

By the way, the black 68 Charger was my favorite.
 
One of the new pleasures in life here in the Windy City....several car shows every weekend...had to drive for 90 minutes to get there yesterday...but there are so many car enthusiasts here...I am getting addicted to the fall here too...clear skys, temps in the mid 70's, no humidity...pretty nice, until the winter comes.

Sorry Tim my fingers were not as accurate as they should have been.

Damn.... All the "cool" folks are up EARLY. :dontknow: :confused: I'm just getting ready for bed. :eek: :dontknow:
 
Really good question! It is a tradition to open the hoods to display the engine and visual modifications...I always wonder if the engine is dirty or un-kept if the hood is closed. My engine compartment is what draws most of the comments...one really knowledgeable guy went by and said to me: "About time for a catch can...looks like your supercharger is misting oil." He saw just a little bit of oil and knew immediately what the issue was...

I ordered a catch can from JMB yesterday!
 
I have several cameras...but the one that seems to always be the easiest and most portable is the cheapest of the bunch.

Canon PowerShot SD600...

show me how you hook it up. ive got boomers valve covers with the breathers. i also have justins catch can on the shelf and was wondering how i could get it under the hood. it just looks too cool. oh and the old cheby pick ups are my favorite. brings back my high school days. i drove a 51 5 window. all the chick's digged it.
 
Will do the hook up of the catch can as soon as I get it (and Stingray can be available)...

I make everything look terrible...he is a pro.
 
Hey Roy,

You don't know how to take pictures!:mad: :mad: :mad:

I have tons of videos and some pictures from shows from the early 70's till now.

WHERE ARE THE LADIES????

I kick myself now sometimes.;)

Just when the camera is on a nice vehicle it goes to a butt or chest shot!:elefant: :elefant: :elefant: :D

Never thought of that! I will try to experiment...I may get the angles wrong, but I learn quickly...;)
