Event Coverage World of Wheels Boston 2011

thanks god the king pins were there .... i swear ill never go to thank show .. yet i said that last year too .

 

yes at least they stepped up to the traditional plate- along with my wife ( the only non Kingpin in the Motorama section). Maybe next year people will actally show interest in doing the event - you get to see everyone and have a lot of fun.

 

any pics of the pin up contest ?

 

Well actually my wife and her friends car club the Bombshell bettys where in the motorama section blackk 55 and Dodge 880. We know the kingpins tho

 

sweet i think i saw them ... went sat nite late .

 

Yea it was kinda dissapointing seeing the motorama section so small. Wifes car club just started so only 2 members hopefully next year they will have more. Chopshop your wifes car is amazing,our car was sittin behind it. I admired that car all weekend.

 

How does a guy or couple go to any indoor car show and only spend an hour?

The cost is about the same as the Portland Roadster Show and probably the same as just about any indoor show in the country now. 15.00 with NO senior discounts (I asked and they were insulted) plus 8.00 for parking.
That one cost us 38 to get in. 70 total for meals going and coming and 60 for gas plus a 5.00 purchase from Gene W and a model Willys for my daughter. But we had a hell of a lot of fun that day even with 320 miles of driving.

Lets see more show photos from Boston.

 

it was small...I walked up and down and in to the bike area and asked a guy who worked there .. wherethe other rooms... He said this was it . but did end up in east boston a an amazing place for grub ...

 

i stole these pics from djtwigsta, hope he don't mind

anyway's i had an alright time this past weekend. can't say the show got me in the "car show spirit" (it was too much like work & my beer tab was outta control!). the ride home sunday night however was a different story. richie ran outta gas 1000' from a gas station on the hunt for gas for my car which was also on dead E. we got gas & blasted back up 93, had the chevy pegged at 4grand for way too long & she held together woop! that made my weekend.

Tag those you know!! I got great shots of Dana's and Chop Shops rides. Was great to see.

 

Great pix! Thanks

 

I was not exactly keen on the idea trailering my racecar up to Boston for a three day show, and all the hassles I envisioned that the city would bring. It turns out my concerns were unfounded. The staff treated us great and ran a very professional show. There were a good variety of cars, and most were very high quality machines. On Saturday night...I promised my wife if she went up there with me we would leave in two hours. We ended up having such a good time we stayed till closing. We will be back next year... Thanks again to Rick and his staff for a fine show.

 

thanks- glad you liked our rides. (I didnt do Dana's car but will when its ready for another paint scheme)

 

Here is the link from Street Rodders coverage too

Thanks for the continued show support Lenny! I think you single-handidly promoted the 2011 WOW more than Rick!

Great venue, much tighter, better quality show.

Good to see my Brother's ride highlighted in Street Rodder coverage.

Allready getting pumped for next year!

 

Not at all my friend -Rick busted his ass for this show . Just wanted people to know that Boston CAN put on a quality event and dotn ever discount what us New Englanders can do!

 

This was a great year at WOW! Rick, Deb, and "their" crew did a great job puttin this together!!! I guess I didnt get to meet the whole crew.
Pretty sure i did though!!!
