Thanks for the pics Todd. My paint job isn't anywhere near five-figures and I'd just about have a heart attack if someone dropped a camera or anything on it. And yes, that white Ford is beautiful. Those custom headlights are ridiculous.

I didn't have my camera in my pocket, but our old friend the G-Force Cuda was at the main after party.

It had (I think) Arizona plates on it, and a tag on the windshield that listed Doug Cooper as the owner, but I don't remember seeing it at the show, and it disappeared again before the night was over. I was standing by the entrance watching cars come and go so I assume it went back in a trailer somewhere deeper in the parking lot, as I never saw it go through the main entrance.

It looked marvelous. I thought of it here because I actually made a point of seeing how the body and paint had aged since 2007. Some guy was looking at it and said it was "state of the art..." I asked him if he was familiar with the car, and he said somewhat. I started to tell him when it was built and first seen in Columbus, but decided to not be the know-it-all nobody...

Doh! That's why I missed it at the show! I forgot to make my way back around to that aisle to see JHR's and Alloway's exhibits.

Still one of my all-time favorites.

I was standing there showing my wife some of the details of the Cuda and how it compared to some of the cars we had just seen in the indoor arena ... then I asked her to guess when this one was done....

He's right.

That's how groundbreaking this car was. State of the art 8 years later in a hobby that has hardly stood still.

A lot of good looking cars! Can't wait for things to start to heat up around Indianapolis.
