Corey,
Great report on a very classy show. Do you know any more about the cars in the pictures like the Ford GT'S ? Nice to know the show has such a wide variety of cars and vintages.
Giant PLUS ONE.

They gave out "THE CAR GUIDE" books at the show.  In the book is a description of every car.  If there is something specific you want to know I can take a picture of that page of the book and post.

That is what is so cool about being in large "apply to enter" shows such as this. They treat you right. Always plenty of positive comments.

One time I lived in Long Beach CA (Maybe around 2000 or so) and Jay was hosting the Tonight Show. I attended a literature fair at a speedway north of LA - don't remember the name but it is still open. Anyways Jay drove his Duesenberg roadster that day and parked it in the middle of the event. No one attacked him or asked for an autograph. He was a car guy and we liked having another car guy there. If he wanted to park his Duesenberg where he did it did not bother us.

Very cool Cory - we wish we were you.

Did you do that car Tim?  I saw he was from MA so I wondered if you did it.

Corey,
Would like any info on the Ford GT'S that were shown. In the picture you posted it appears to have 4 cars....I am curious about the white car with strange fender flares and hood scoop also posted, It must be someones creation and looks fiberglass???
Thanks for sharing this stuff.

R.R.,

There were actually 6 Ford GT40s.  I took a picture of all 6.  Hope this helps.

I meant I took pictures of all six descriptions in the book.  That is what I posted.

Sorry for the confusion.

Corey, I've rotated your images of the 6 GT summaries so they are easier to read and hope you're OK with that. if you'd rather I didn't I can delete the reposting's.
