I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

It is a 3 day event Friday though Sunday. It is impossible to see everything but there just about anything pre 64 that you'd want to see.

Re: Back to the 50's car show

i can appreciate all types of builds
stock, custom and everything in between

but...
if your going to build a tilt bed to show off the undercarriage
at least build a decent exhaust system

It is on the state fair grounds it is over 320 acres. It is a good time a lot of car guys hanging out and checking out cars and trucks. I have found some good ideas just walking around there. Also there are a ton of vendors that have some good show deals.

Re: Back to the 50's car show

Is that his porta-wall laying under the rear tire? Or "tyre" in Canada?
