    These photos were from one of Shinoda's cars from Stillwater. I think he is a Hamber but not sure of his Hamb name. <center>

    I spent Friday there. I did not bring my car because it's not done. Pounded the pavement all day long (like I have in the past) only see a handful of cars that I really, really liked. I love cars, don't get me wrong, but just too many street rods with too many bells and whistles for me. I'll be back someday, but not anytime in the near future. I'd rather spend my time and money closer to home...at the Shakedown.

    Hey, you didn't get my neighbor's car, he was up there!

    Just kidding, if it was like any other year there has to be 10K+ cars there. I wish I could get up there. Maybe next year, that's what I said last year, and the year before that and the year before that..................

    He's got a good eye...and good taste.

    Thanks for taking the time to put them up. Gives a good flavor of the show. Such a massive show. What percentage of the cars do you suppose you saw? Do you know the make of the bare metal late thirties car with the deco grille?

    Oh well, it seemed to me like she had a "fake" personality anyway.

    I think you're talking about the Pontiac. That car shows me a lot of promise!

    I didn't realize the Pontiacs were that exotic.

    You're Tony, right? If so we met there in Austin Sunday at the lake...when they "lost" your burger. The bald guy with Lee.
