fstfish66 - The leftcoast equivalent to your Auto Rama is the Grand National Roadster Show, America's Most Beautiful Roadster award cars. Our club, Inland Mopars, usually has a 5-6 car club display each year.
Great show that is tough to see in a day. Same guys, Foose, Barris, et al, usually walking around. We work the souvenir stand as a fund raiser and it's fun to visit with the people and talk nothing but cars for several days.
Come on out to SoCal and take in a great show and enjoy the warm weather in January 2011.
