I'm going to try to make it next month. Something that I've had to do with Clifton Park Town problems had messed up my schedule for June and July - Guptill's is only about 8-10 miles South.


Some more celebs of note were there as well:

Daisy Duke, aka Catherine Bach was signing autographs. Still looks dang good

Debbie Dunham aka Candy Clark of American Graffiti fame ( a bit long of tooth and fading but still looks good to this OF)

Dan Woods of Chop, Cut and Rebuild fame was signing as well.

Then that chopped, sectioned, shortened and otherwise screwed up Imperial that has been in several magazines was NOT drawing much of a crowd on Friday. It's, IMO, as ugly in person as it is in the rags. Not to my taste, as I do prefer the pre '49s

Yea, I didn't like the Imperial either.

nice looking cars there thanks for sharing

Thanks for posting pictures Dave, great to see you at the show too. Probably see you at Guptils in a couple of weeks.

Matt, sorry I missed you. The FFR booth was in vendor building, not the one with model cars and pinstripers. (but it was also air conditioned )

That's the 1 building I usually go to first, but didn't go in this year, got turned around too many times. I think the show layout changed a little cause I actually had a hard time finding my way around. I could be wrong but it seemed that way. I know the buildings don't move.. I don't remember any of the Trane portable air conditioners in years past ither, but given the heat wave, they were a welcome addition.. But I was also scouring the grounds looking for the FFR booth. I'll try to make Guptills also, but I don't know what I'v got going on yet.

George - I have one more but has you in the photo and felt I couldn't post without your OK - nothing lurid or incriminating, but .......

I do intend on being at Guptil's - weather permitting, of course

Ha Ha, you can post anything you want. I'm sure the only reaction you will get is "how does he stuff himself in that?"
