    Drove down to Norwalk (about an hour) today to the Gateway Auto Club annual show. I lived in Norwalk for 30 years before moving to Bridgewater 12 years back. I have lots of old friends there so I try and go every year to catch up. Took the Roadster since the Coupe I have been working on is not registered yet. It was 28 degrees this morning when I got up and 32 when I left. Not Roadster Weather!
    Enjoy the pictures of some of the many cars there. Not a bad swap meet for a local show either.

    Looks like a good turnout of cars for this time of year in the northeast. Thanks for the pix - lots of nice cars.

    Great photos! Interesting that you had to wait until it was 32 degrees before for you left home in your '32. Bob

    That was always a nice show, you just never knew what the weather would be like!
    Glad to see that it still draws a good crowd.
    I haven't been in about 20 years, and now that I live in Ohio I don't expect to go again.
    Thanks for the tour, I believe the white '57 Pontiac belongs to a friend of mine Bobby Di Nardo.

    Thanks for the pics Mark, great variety of cars there. What's with the Collector Car cards on the windshields of some of the cars- details of the car?
