That is a good picture. Congratulations on being included in the article. It looks like the show is getting good press and should be even bigger in 2012. "The entire show had a high-voltage feel to it because the level of enthusiasm in both the displayers and show-goers was so high". I hope they keep that feeling going. :bigthumb:

This issue's sitting on my nightstand waiting for a chance to be read. Time to open it up and have a look.

And Alice is spectacular. I love that car.

Likely to be a long time... I don't think they're doing a rolling date (keeping it at '85-older).
