I've never been to this show, but my dad has and says it is really well run with an excelent turn out. I will probably be there.

So just throwing it out there.

oops - Header is wrong (can't count). Body info is correct: April 20 - 22

Thanks Jonathan.

Edit: Title dates corrected.

 

So just a quick update. I took home first in the Sports Compact division. Very fun show and a lot of variety with about 60 cars in the show. Oh and an inside car show is much easier - no dust or wind to worry about.
Here are a few pictures (more at my Flickr) -

 

Finally, here is my Dad's 1931 Chevy Coop - he won 1st in his division as well.

 

Thanks Chuck! Looks like you and your Dad took home a couple of awards for you efforts! Also, your Flickr photos show a large variety of cars at the show.

Congrats to you and your dad, Chuck!! They looked really incredible. (and so official looking too)

Very nice presentation too. I love your dad's "Black Rose" purple paint.

The Prima bottles look great all lined up! Thanks for putting them out there for people to see.

Thanks Heather. It was very fun looking at the swirls in the other cars and it was tough to resist the temptation to point out how they could have done better.
Here is a little closer shot of my sign. Note under the detailing section the gratuitous posting of my Prima products:
