Autorama

Had an EXCELLENT time at the Detroit Autorama this year.
Got home late last night,only took 4 quarts of power steering fluid to make it home.
Canadian Customs was cool on the way back.
On the way down,U.S. Customs got me confused with HAMBer Rebel.So they wanted to have a little visit.

Met some very cool people,in no particular order:
Hotrodladycruiser
Rudy
Hot Rod Lady of Portland -ask her about Big John
Purple Pickup
Barnett and his gang
Stude Boy
Mr Gasser
Kenny Youngblood
Art Himsel
Ron Finch
and MANY more equally cool names I can't remember.

The HAMB was well represented
Safariknut
Daddy-0
Barnett
Mike0
Rebel
InPrimer

and again,I'm sure I'm forgetting many names,including my own.
It was an excellent show,I didn't get to see half of it,
and next year will be bigger and better.

 

I agree, this years show was great, I wish I could have made it on Thursday for the biggest HAMBer gathering, but I had to work. Its always great to see some familiar faces: Denise, Race, Beatnik, Safarinut, and a couple of new ones: HotRodLady of Portland, and Denise's Dad. Hopefully I am able to be at some future events where there is a big HAMB gathering, because I would like to meet some new people, and put some faces with some names. Thanks again to Denise, for the passes, I owe you one! -Joe

 

I really enjoyed meeting all the people I did too! And Unkl Ian you told me to e-mail you about safarinuts pinstriper board but I found it, thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Unkl Ian...really good to finally meet you!!! Thanks, from me and Jime', for the "pricing guides"! Man, we had a blast!! Striping and painting with cool people and true legends! All the guys are stoked as hell for next year's gathering!

 

After we left saturday night, FatCat told me it was you we rode with in the elevator up to the roof. DOH!

 

I had no clue unkl ian was there. sorry i missed ya. I also had a great time. Safarinut did an awesome job on my cooler. Barnett, I'll leave the back of the cooler open for the BDC. It's worth the wait. And a big congrats to Rudy and VooDoo Child. Chris
