Default went to the FM Auto Show today

Went to the Frank Maratta Auto Show today and had a great time.

Not too many F-bodies…..a couple 2010 Camaros, and

a pimped out 68 Camaro




a pretty wild 1992 IROC



and a 1980 race car Camaro



but the highlight was when I was going through one of the vendors booths looking at pictures and a guy asked if he could help. I told him I had one of Thom Sansoucie prints hanging up in my home office and was looking for another one. He said he was Thom Sansoucie………for me this was better than meeting Picasso. His work is incredible. I bought two prints from him, he signed both and taught Alex a few math tricks. He really was a super nice guy and this made the show great for me.

A pic of Thom and Alex:

Sorry Pizza!! I never went and did not know if the show would suck or not. Actually, I expected it to suck but ended up having a great time.

Hi Scott, I thought I heard some people talking about that, but didn't see anyone doing it.

Alex says THANKS for the hat from Hawaii!! The 68 had flawless paint, but the overall look is also not my style.
