    Let me preface this by saying that I was either buzzing, inebriated, or hungover for a good portion of the weekend. Let me follow up by saying that I don't consider myself any form of photographer. There are threads here on the H.A.M.B. with waaaay better photos and coverage of the show. But, even still, I might as well share what I've got.

    A few shots from Autorama 2013, all shot on my iPhone 4...like a hack.

    In my opinion this car should have been in the great 8. HRP

    Well, we do have a reputation to uphold! :D

    Seriously though, this year was my first year, and I will definitely be back. It was an awesome weekend.

    When I bought my point-and-shoot camera 6 years ago, it was top of the line for its size and price range. My iPhone takes better pictures than my camera now :(

    That T-Bird is an old custom from the 50s (maybe 60s?) There was a write up about it just recently in either Hot Rod Deluxe or Rod and Custom. I'll check my magazines tonight and let you know what magazine/issue. Really cool car. I wish I could have gotten closer to it.

    Agreed bud! Fun times for sure.

    ...wait. There was an upstairs???

    The ba*****t was where it's at. Unfortunately, I don't have any more pics to post.

    There's a multi-page write up on The Golden Bird in the March 2013 issue of Hot Rod Deluxe.

    No doubt Danny, the Iron Orchid is amazing in every way! That and the kustom Willy's were my favorites... and the Golden Bird... and the Brothers Customs roadster... and the ....

    HRP I couldn't agree more. The Iron Orchid was a hell of a lot better looking car than that 34 and 35 that were in the 8. I believe it could hold its own against any of the other cars. Then again I'm not a judge at that show.

    Good seeing you too bud! Congratulations again on the award.

    I'll drag Dave and Taraah down to ELTA this summer :)

    Nortongrimm and I have both been following your ch***is build - on here and on IG. We stopped by to say hi, but I think you were in a crowd of people. Maybe next year.

    Ch***is is looking *****in'! Great job.

    I just do what I can with what I have. Thanks for looking!
     
  21. Canadian shows will **** from now on! LOL! Autorama has never disappointed yet.

    I will have to check that out, I have a soft spot for custom tbirds. I got a few shots of it too and probably looked at it the most out of any car there, that and the 3 window merc built from a 4 door
