Event Coverage Indy Hot Rod and Restoration Show

I was there running the Pertronix/Patriot Exhaust/ Doug's Headers/JBA booth.
Felt that turnout was up this year and there was a good quality to many of the attendees. Hey Slik Metal, saw you come by the booth.
Well worth our time and expense, will be there again next, maybe even do one of the seminars

Bob, thank you for posting your pictures. The pics of the 55 were VERY good. As usual, you did a fantastic job. Hope to see you soon.

 

Hi Sue, Glad you guys liked the pics. Didn't realize you had new paint but noticed the car looked sharp!

 

Ha, no new paint...just some touchups from gravel nicks. Dustin brought the present paint job back to life a couple years ago. Maybe someday...if I can find a good, cheap painter.
