Yeah..This was a 3 day show and we went for just 1 day, "saturday only".
Opened and closed the show...lots of walking and lots of setting.
It was fun and BIG....drove 2.5 hours to the show and 2.5 hours to get home...LONG DAY
We walked for about 6 hours from building to building...my dogs are still aching...

If you went last year also, how would you compare last year's show to this year's?

The red C1 with no top (soft or hard), if displayed as shown in the photo took a major deduction on the interior. The top headliner is considered part of the interior and if not displayed there are points deducted from the interior, enough to keep the car out of first place.....don't ask me how I know, but when I take my car to those kind of shows or Super Chevy the soft top is up or the hardtop is on.....my very first Autorama it wasn't up nor on, ugh!

Thanks for the pictures. Very high quality level of cars on display. The '37 Chevy is outstanding!

"If you went last year also, how would you compare last year's show to this year's?"
According to my mechanic who is restomodding my C2 and has shown his own customs there for the past 4 years, this year was much better than last year...more cars and people.
