    I was wondering whos going.. I went a few years ago and was surprised at all the vintage stuff there. They had one whole floor devoted to vintage Hot Rods.. Then I went again and it was Chinese plastic chrome.. I guess you never know.. I like the modern stuff but my hearts in the vintage stuff..

    Remember when it was at Hunt Armery before the Civic Arena even opened. I was real young then but remember going with my dad. People had slick backs and wore pointed shoes and Goucho shirts.. Enjoy the pics, some of you guys might even be in those photos..

    I remember the show at the civic arena. It was kind of in the rotunda underneath the seating area. When I was walking around looking at cars, there was heavy curtain up, and there was a gap in it, I looked through and there was studio wrestling going on :)

    My uncle use to show there back in the day. Memories.

    I had two cars in the WWW in Pittsburgh, but I do not go every year.

    OMG. Great pictures. My good friend (Jerry Williams) and I thumbed a ride from Turtle Creek to the Hunt Armory. That would have been 60-61. I always liked Curly's pickup with the blown Chevy. Good memories.

    Thank you!

    The show was pretty decent. There was a little of everything down there. There was a lot of elbow room and it didn't seem cramped..
