We have been doing the ISCA shows for a couple years now but decided to take this season off. We are coming up as spectators and to see a bunch of friends who run the circuit.

If he displays, check out the paint work of John Williams - he's as good as I've ever seen. He was in the basement a couple of years ago - should be in the front row, upper level.

John Williams is an American composer, conductor and pianist. In a career that spans six decades, Williams has composed many of the most famous film scores in history, including those for Jaws, Star Wars, Superman, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Jurassic Park, Hook, Schindler's List, and Harry Potter.
He also does super sweet paint jobs.

I just updated John's wikipedia page to reflect that he now paints cars.

My son and I will be there Saturday. We've been going for about 20 years now and we just can't seem to stop.

Can think of only two explanations:
The winter is getting to Alex
or
He's dipping too many donuts into too much icecream.

As for yello yello: He just likes to laugh!!

yeah the snow sux...but the show was very cool.. so many great cars.
obviously many cool ones but one of my favs was that LS-7, 69 camaro (first 2 pics. in thread), which was awesome in every detail (just about all of them were ).
one thing about the Autorama is it makes me feel like spring is really getting close...
