    I love this car, but what's up with the driving lights? Looks like they're set to warn off approaching aircraft.

    ^That was pretty funny^

    Okay, last installment with a cool old racekor, and two from the 'because-f-you-that-why' file:

    This big rig's engine cover was cut to look exploded out and reveal the engine. Some pretty good airbrush work, although it had nothing on Dick's work.

    Seems like a picture of a $385,000 Speedster should be worth $10,000 or so. :D

    Nice pic. :Thumbsup:

    TBH, the booth babe phenomena is tired, and I don't think it sells as well as exhibitors hope. I have observed exhibits where they spent money on a babe to make a splash. Largely, it fails. It does attract a certain segment of show-goers, who stop and grab greedy ogles at dem titties, and then walk away, ignorant of the products that dem titties were designed to lure.

    As far as my favorite car, there were many beautiful cars. I guess that Porsche would have been up there. Pre '65 cars are more and more compelling to me as time goes on. Unfortunately, I'm not alone so buying one is a remote possibility. I was lucky to get in early on my '70. Below is the way to enjoy a car, BTW.

    Clean your lens Eric. Some of those cars look really dirty. :)
