    That is cool. Thanks for the pics. I don't know what the name of it is, but I love that orange car of his. That gold Chrysler is killer too.

    I also met Barry Maguire who was on hand filming for an upcoming episode of Car Crazy and he was kind enough to pose for a photo with my son and I. Notice the Jalopy Journal shirt!

    McKee........I like that statement "throws a little car show". Very funny! The generosity of this man is incredible. Opening his estate to ~3000 cars is amazing.
    The feature cars were Amphicars. Here are some more pics...

    The evenings entertainment was Tommy James and the Shondell's. They rocked the house (tent) for almost 2 hours. Here are some more pics.
    I know there is a picture of a custom guitar somewhere in the last photo......
    The guitar was auctioned off that evening for $5500. All money collected at the show goes to local charities.

    The collection of 30's era Cadillacs is housed in a new building styled after the 30's era architecture. One of the noteable Cads is the Chicken Coupe cad that was stored in a chicken coupe from 1931 to 2005. Untouched in all of its patina glory.

    The bamboo look on the body of the dual cowl Cad was hand-painted. It took two stripers from NJ 3 months to recreate.

  15. Thanks for posting up the pics! I didn't get a chance to see any of the show 'cause I had a booth there (at the corner of the dog barn), and couldn't get away. What a great day and turn out!
