    This show continues to grow and expand and pulls alot of cars from the northern part of the state that we usually don’t see. This was a great show.

    Overall Rating:A solid A, a must attend show.

    I went as an artist to draw cars and had a great day doing it. Capt. Bob was there from Wisconsin Hotrod Radio as well as the guy selling the cool board game American Muscle Car Challenge. There were vendors selling crafts and car parts, plus a guy selling AMT model kits at $4.00 each.

    lordairguitar,

    Did you, by chance, see that beautiful, dark blue 1931 Cord that came into the show right around noon? I had never seen a Cord before, and I love the styling and design on these cars.

    I did say “hello” to Capt Bob from Hotrod Radio!

    Sounds like a lot of fun! Did anyone get a photo of that Cord?

    Nutz! I missed that car. I guess I was too busy drawing. Wished I would have seen that. Like Garibaldi sez…anyone get a pic?

    I think I have several photos of that car. I will need a couple of days to transfer the images from my camera and upload to the forum.

    If you check the Photo Gallery, I hope I was able to add a photo of that beautiful blue Cord.

    Thanks for the photos Marshall! I have seen this car before at at least one other show – though I can’t remember which one
