Went to that show and I thought I was going to be hot stuff driving around Monterey in my new Carrera. Well, I felt like a poor cousin along side the
Lambos, Bents, and Ferraris.

The Bugatti Engine looks like it was fabricated from sheet metal, wander how it was able to hold all that compession? Must be nice to be able to
collect cars like that.
My I ask what it cost you to to get in to see the show?

Hi! Yup, most of this stuff seems like a one-off developed for performance....and as Art. That Buggati engine piece looks like copper??? And, yes. It
must be nice to be able to collect these beautiful machines and afford to restore and show them!!! I was told 2-5 bucks to get in. $150-$200 for
gawkers entrance, $500 if you want to hang a breakfast with participants.
...maybe this isnt the Buggati, or copper???

What?! No Cuda's?
Excellent photos.....txs 4 that.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.
