Default 2013 DETROIT AUTORAMA.. Goin', Showin' ?

I know it's a bit early to start this thread but I hope to be showing the "Ghost Rider Roadster" again at the 2013 Detroit Autorama, if they will have me. 2011 was the the first ever indoor car show for us and I did learn a lot and would really like the opportunity to present the "Ghost Rider Roadster" in a better light . Myles and I have started planning early since I am so far away from Detroit and it takes some time to work out the logistics.....just in case. The Autorama just keeps getting bigger and better and I would really hate to miss it and the good friends that we have made over the many years of attending.

I finally made it to the autorama for the first time this year, had an absolute blast. Definently going back this year, might show my buddies 62 tbird downstairs (havent decided yet). I hope you bring the ghost rider along, I really want to see it in person at some point, such a beautiful car.

Well,... If I haven't assumed room temperature by then,.. I will most likely be working overnights again,.. Once again, I'll be there as always, but you probably won't know it.

Thanks ynot ; If you don't have a good time at the Autorama, then you just don't like hopped up cars ! I never get tired of it . Hope to see you there !

I was going to get a 20 x20 spot next time (if possible) as I wanted to display the roadster a little differently than I did in 2011. Don't know if I could get a larger spot downstairs ?
Thanks, Ron

I hope you can bring the Ghost Rider again, Ron! It's such a beautiful roadster and I need to stare at it for long periods of time again!

You guys are crazy. There's no 2013 Autorama. The world ends on Dec 21 2012!!

But just in case it doesn't, I'll be there.

Thanks Todd; I really appreciate your comment! The plan is to be there, if it is accepted again . I do love that event as it is far more than just a show !

Ron,

The basement is a lot of fun, but really your car would be appreciated more upstairs. There is true judging upstairs, where the basement is a pick award. Not that I think you're a trophy whore, but it does mean more with a win upstairs.

No, were good,.... The Mayans didn't observe "leap year" there have been about 514 Leap Years since Caesar created it in 45BC. Without the extra day every 4 years, this would be October, 2013. Also, the Mayan calendar did not account for leap year…. so technically the world should have ended months ago.

You're welcome! I love Autorama. I set up a booth downstairs in the Artist's Alley (2013 will be the 4th year), and I always have a great time. It was great that Norwell was actually able to get away and make the show this year. I hear they moved it to mid- March for 2013.
