detroit autorama pic thread-56K certain death

just got back from detroit and i thought i would share some of the pics we took. I have to say that it was alot better this year than last, or at least i thought. I got to meet some new people and catch up with some old friends...so kick back and enjoy the pics (excuse so many of the 55' pontiac shots...im kinda partial to it)


nice to see the ladies enjoying the show as well


she thought she was special cause gene winked at her spff







is that dirtyt talking to punkabilly1306 in the background back there? i think it is


oh no the hambers are gathering...HIDE YOUR DAUGHTERS!!!oh and its a camera bag, not a purse

 

yeah thats a viper motor

 

that Poncho is rad! Thanks for the pics dude

 

and the man himself, this was my favorite part of the day





like i said GREAT SHOW despite the shitty weather, and i hope these pics will make the folks who were unable to attend feel a little better. Next year i hope to have the 62 there and be striping in the booth...so i hope you enjoyed and if anyone has anymore pics of that winfield dark blue 51' merc' could you please e-mail them to me
thanks guys and gals

I'm a sucky photographer, but here's some of mine from today.

 

that pink truck had me torn, i hated it but then loved it all at the same time lol i dunno

 

It obnoxiously awsome (haha).

It was created by Bill Bierman of Creative Customs in St. Louis, MO. Cool guy, but I still think he was on acid when he came up with it (grin).

 

Thanks for the great pics.Planned to go but got hit by a huge snowstorm.Sucks!

I imagine shaking Gene Winfield's hand was worth the trip alone. I'll tell ya. From the photos that I've seen I can't imagine why people would even go upstairs. I guess just for the sake of curiosity. And the Yellow Submarine.

 

Great pix Brother, Here I am on the HAMB at 4:00a.m.waiting to see Big Olds pix from the show!!No cigar!! But yours are cool Thanx!!-Sololobo

 

Cool Pics, A quick note , if anyone could use a set of hubcaps like on the 58 or 59 ford( white and goldish) PM me.

 

Man... don't give up your day job!

Thanks for putting up all those pis, but you suck as a photographer!

No offence.

 

great looking car, glad i went on saturday, but we might go back today as my wife didnt tell me their was something their she wanted, so guess i got to go get it for her

 

hey asshole do you realize how fuckin hard it is to get a good picture when you have light coming from all different angles!!! and im sorry i didnt' know i was here to impress anyone with pictures, i guess the ones you are gonna post will be alot better...oh wait...whats that you aren't posting any oh no so why don't you just shut the fuck up and enjoy whats there like everyone else asshole

 

Nice comment dickface.

 

Hahaha... sorry, mate. Yes I do know how hard it is, trust me.

I would love to go, but the drive from Australia is a very long (and wet) one.

 

Don't sweat Assholes like this.....Besides they are all drunks and felons down there....aren't they?...Just kiddin Mate.....

 

Seen it tooling around the Good Guys in Indy. Was a wild sight to see.

 

Ok well to get this thread back on track and not closed here are some more pictures. Lets keep the negative comments to a minimum......

 

Heya. No offense guys, but I think the comment was meant for me and he was just kidding.

Chill...

 

more

 

nice pics aaron!! when we first got there saturday morning it was nice cause there were hardly any people, im guessing from the shitty weather...but it soon filled up

 

Chill out, I would have thought someone carrying a MANPURSE would talk less like a sailor.

 

Drunk... most of the time.

Felon... rarely.

By the way, did anyone get pics of a '36 Ford ute? It's an Aussie-bodied car that was debuting at the Autorama. Haven't been able to find any pics as of yet. It's definitely not a HAMB-friendly car, but if anyone had any pics I would be curious to see them.

 

Fantastic pics, Bro! Thanks for sharing them, it truly is the premier indoor show around these parts...

damnitt lol i even told my girlfriend that it looked like i was carrying a man purse LOL oh well
