It's funny that my Dad and I were just discussing this show today, and we assumed that it wasn't going to happen since we hadn't heard a single peep about the show from anyone, anywhere. John Wells hadn't heard anything at all either, and until he popped onto our board that the show was indeed happening, we all thought it was a one time thing. So I did a search on the HAMB to see if anyone knew anything. I'm glad to see it's still going to happen, especially since I was lobbying to do something similar with the Pileup before going to Decatur, but damn, now I can't go with such late notice. Hopefully next year I can go.
I'll be there on Saturday with the Vicky. I like a Pre 48 show. The people I ran into there were the best. A lot of real hot rodders from the 60's and 70's were at the show last year. Good Times....
It was decent. Metalshaping demonstrations all day, an air show, carnie rides for the kids, a few vendors and a swap meet. There were a few kick ass cars there, but I didn't bring a camera....
