    I thought it was light on cars this year, but I think the area was bigger so maybe thats why. Dave, thanks for taking care of the pump for me.

    Went Saturday afternoon and saw your car but you weren't around. That Willys is WOW. I thought the show was alot smaller this year even with the way they crammed the cars in. I thought the Piston Power Show last year was better than Autorama.

    I think it was real light on cars. You see 4 time's the cars on a Tuesday Solon cruise night. Without all the Die-cast cars for sale. Auction was a bust! You could get your picture taken with the FONZ for 20$. I didn't know he batted over 300. Oh well it was cold out. Autorama is dieing a slow death.

    That was not what I wanted to hear. I thought show was getting smaller too and I said the same thing that this show is dyeing slowly. Its just another nail in clevelands down fall. Very sad. I have been going to this show since I was a little boy. I hope the show can make it to its 50th year. You know its up the the show promoters to make it work and take the time to go.out and talk to clubs. Im going to talk to my trans am club about a set up. I also notice the van club was not there and I really wanted to see them.

    I was talking to a few people this week and why they did not go and this is what they said. The show does not have the same feel to it as it did downtown. Oh the show seem small and it was a waste of money last year. If I want to rice I will go down the the local hangout. I also notice a drop in customs and bikes but that baby blue pontiac custom had my jaw dropping.
