Detroit Autorama Photos

I went to the Autorama this past weekend. Although a great showing of cars, I was dissapointed in the number of C3's on display. I counted one. Alot of nice cars though. Below is some of the rollin bling!

consider yourself lucky to see even 1

Last week I took my 6yo boy to the World of Wheels show here in St. Paul. Not a single Corvette!!! There was one major resto-mod that had a bit of Corvette DNA in it but that was it. Lots of Mustangs, Novas, Chevelles, Camaros, etc, but not a single C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 or C6 that I saw. I was pretty disappointed.

Yes, I loved that one too. Built by Bobby Alloway (Hot Rod Shop) out of Tennessee. He had about 10-12 cars on display with all of them being completely stunning. The 67 blue/silver Mustang was also built by him.

jc,
Here are some in black from Autorama 2010. Snuck one in there of me standing with Cha Cha (Shirley Muldowney) too. Connie (Conrad) Kallitta was there also but didn't see him. Both live here in the Metro-Detroit area.
