I was up at the DQ show last night on Lindbergh. Didn't see any C3's, only a bunch of C4-C6s and other old cars. Now I know where the C3s were hiding.
The 72 wins again :)

We're in the same boat, wondering where to find all these car shows in town. We found out about the DQ show accidentally while driving down Lindbergh. I grabbed a flyer off the counter inside DQ that lists the details - it says . . . . . . .
Here's a web site that might help keep track of car shows in your area. Just click on your state.

Rims are from ET wheels out of San Leandro in the Bay Area. Sizes are front 18 x 9.5 and Rear 18 x 12.5 (rear are custom made) backspace are 4.5 and i am running the Double Offsset trailing arms from Van Steel and a fiberglass spring from Vette Brake Products (VBP). Just the rims will set you back $2600

I will be at the next one. I like the night time shows. I also know there is a chuck-a-burger friday nights gathering somewhere.
