Great show this year. I remembered to bring all my media cards and a fresh set of batteries for the digi-cam. I did a lot more snapping this year. Probably because I attended it alone due to scheduling conflicts with some friends and the fact that I'm in the middle of a major overhaul of our kitchen at the momemt and this was the only time I was going to get to go downtown for the show. It worked out nice though because I was able to take my time rather than be rushed through it. I also missed Jeff Schwartz by about 15 minutes over by the Pfaff Digital Rendering booth. They do some pretty good work. Kind of like what Kris Horten does. Also, be sure to check out the grey '68 Camaro convertible (pictures 34 and 35). This car belongs to Jeff Hanson, a sweet ride that will no doubt start getting some attention on the Message Boards as well as the magazines. I'll have some better pictures of it soon on my website.

Anyway...enjoy the show! (http://www.infamouscamaro.com/Autorama%2005.htm) :)

Actually there's 4 of them. Yeah, I stayed away from the camaros a bit this year because I tend to go hog wild on them when I'm shooting cars at the shows. Besides, a lot of the camaros that were there (dare I say it) were kinda boring. There was actually a lot of stock/original first gens. Nice...but not my cup of tea. There was a really sick '69 Pro-Street that I wanted to get a pic of, but by that time it was 2:30pm and there were literally 12 million people inside that convention center. Every car was swarmed by humans like ants on a piece of cheese. It was impossible to get pics. I'm glad I went early in the morning when the doors opened.

I forgot to mention I saw Jesse James there too. He was over by that giant monster truck that I snapped. He looked like he didn't want to be bothered so I didn't attempt to say hi. Everyone was staring at him. I later found out he is close friends with the people who own Detroit Choppers (that's probably why he was there).
