I took a few pics at the show today in Detroit, a few cars contending for the Riddler Award. My favorite was the Troy Trepanier Pro Street Corvette....

Great pic's Bill, you must have had patience to wait for the crowds to clear around those beauties.

Yes that Rambler did end up winning, certainly not my choice, but it was a sharp car. I always try to get there when they open so you can actually see the cars, by afternoon its a madhouse full of people . Almost too packed to enjoy later in the day. But it was a good year overall, a ton of nice rides.
Although that Rambler wasn't my choice either ,of the "Great Eight" cars I liked the highboy roadster. I was there on Friday and thought that there were to many spots with stuff for sale and to many restored cars [I do like restorations but not at a Hot Rod Show} The basement, was most interesting and one could enjoy without being deaf.. Nice show though
Make sure you check out the articles in the Whats New- Links to the Riddler winner and coverage from the Detroit News. Beautiful pictures Bill, thanks for posting them.
