looking forward to getting to this event, thanks for posting

 

Think last time I was there- Motor State Street Rods was featured- their 20th year as a club- do not think they are a club anymore-

 

A few of us are driving out again for our yearly trip. Always had a good time. Lots of inspiration and ideas. Looking forward to another great event.

 

They're still around just not as large or active as they use to be. Club meetings are at Gardner-Wescott's place.

 

We're gonna try to get around that…

1st time for me showing & have never been. I'm taking my 34 Plymouth - upstairs.

Few trailer questions:

Is the trailer parking secure?
How far from the Cobo center is the trailer parking?
Can you park the truck there too?


Does the people mover go in both directions? I'm staying at Courtyard by Marriott (great $100/night rate with Military discount)

Thanks,
AA6

 

I'll be there, hustlin artwork again.

 

I'll be driving my wagon up from So. Florida. It'll be my first time at the show. Looking forward to it, hopefully the weather holds for the drive

When I trailered the '36 over, the trailer parking was in a lot about 3 blocks away, and was still there Sunday night! So, not to worry. This year, my trailer spot is even more secure...

Brian

 

Wow. And I'm stressed about the drive from Kalamazoo.

Brian

 

I hope some of this melts so I can get the trailer out...

 

Ya I have been thinking the same thing.I'm getting excited for the show

If it does warm up its going to be a wet ride on a open trailes for sure.
Its been a long hard winter for everyone this year.
Need to get sunshine or nitro fumes, either will do

 

Ha, we are bringing trailers from NY. I can't see mine, it's down by the barn somewhere..........

 

Can you see the barn ??

 

Yukon Xl load of MD hillbillies coming from Stevensville, Edgewater , Kensington,, Bethesda, and maybe Dickerson

 

Ha, I've got about 3 feet on level ground. I'll get the loader out and drag it out before the show. ( I hope )

 

These pictures were taken today. This is why I haul the roadster from Thunder Bay Ont. to London Ont. in the fall when I'm going to show it at the Autorama. It's nice to be just over an hour away from Detroit at show time. Just going to be spectators this year...

Well i'm leaving the sun filled skys of Phoenix and spring Good Guys for the hopefully not snowing cold of Detroit and the Autorama, pretty excited

later jim

 

There is really not that much snow around your trailer,it's mostly reflections from the mirror polish on the doors!

Brian

 

I wish that was true Brian ! More snow coming tonight
Ron

 

Please beware anyone driving in that the potholes here in the Metro Detroit area are the worst I have seen in my 15 years here....and if the potholes don't get your attention, the frost heaves will-like driving on whoopty-doos.

 

We're headed that way Wednesday morning.

 

Looking forward to seeing you guys again.

Don't forget your long johns and your "anti-freeze" - it's cold up here!


.

 

Room booked see you there..

 

Keeping my fingers crossed for dry conditions for Wednesday move in.

Wow....I love this event.....but glad I don't have to drive a car down there...man it's been a brutal winter

 

Coming from the South on Northbound 75, what is the best route into Cobo?

John C Lodge Fwy 10 or West Fort Street 85?


What street or side of the Cobo center is the show vehicle entrance?


MHRA graciously changed my move in day from Wednesday to Thursday giving us another travel day.

 

I'm not sure which is better,but watch the potholes!
