    I'll be there, might be dragging the Triumph with me again. All depends on whether or not Clay needs another bike for the Atombomb Custom booth.

  9. My Son, Myles and I had such a great time at the Autorama, last year showing the "Ghost Rider Roadster" that we just have to go back again. No car this year but we are staying a couple of nights in Bob K's hotel again. Hope we can see the friends that we made at the show, last year :).

    I'll be bring my 27... at least part of it (body only)... the exStreamliner will be a kid friendly interactive display that will allow the future rodders or young at heart to sit in an old jalopy... steer and act like they are going 150 miles an hour on the salt while HAMBing it up for a photo opportunity... 4x6 prints will be made while you wait...

    This will give them a break from being behind the ropes and hopefully get them excited about a future in hot rodding...

    Hey xstrmliner, some of those kids look well into their late teens.
    That one fella in the overalls has got a hell of a 5 oclock shadow.

    I did the white sand thing at a show a few years back, real simple beach scene for the deuce coupe, my grandson had a riot playing in the sand all weekend, but when the show was over, it was a real pain to clean up:(

    I really wanted to go this year, but dates got shifted around & it is the same weekend as the Atlantic City auto auction/show. I set up there & do REALLY good, so I can't skip that one...maybe next year. : (

    I'm going to the Auto Show next week, does that count? We're having another daughter the weekend of Autorama, so it's a no-go for the foreseeable future, unless they move it back to March.
