LOL. Going to B-J is on my bucket list. Not to buy but to see one of the biggest car shows in the world.

Have fun!
 
Too many millionaires, that have driven prices to crazy levels. -- At least Asking prices.
 
I'm headed there also on Wednesday as a first timer. Looking forward to lots of looking and many vendors, from what I hear.
 
I'll be there on business Monday-Thursday with a Wednesday night function at B-J. I'm looking at the 77 power wagon on the docket for wednesday
 
I went a few years ago with my Son.. Just for the Fun of it...

I want the hemi dart at mecum tomorrow, can you change plans? Its lot F115. You could drive it up to me in Michigan if you like.
 
BTW take lots of spare sds cards for your camera and fill em up, you'll be glad U did!!
 
True that Russo&Steele is a better show,BUT Barrett should be done at least once. At Barrett the big wigs fly in for the Friday/Saturday dog and pony show. Wednesday/Thursday their are some good, less expensive cars that can be found. I used to go but not lately.By Sunday it dies way down and the auctioneers run them thru fast to get the heck home....
 
Sure, you may see,Sammy Hagar, Alice Cooper, ZZtop guys, Some of the Beach Boys, Jack Nicholson,Reggie Jackson,Bill Goldburg,Tim Alan.Just to name a few.Guys from NASCAR and NHRA and the cable TV shows too.You just never know who will be standing next to you.
 
There was definitely a bit of sensory overload. There was so much of everything that I found myself walking down aisles gazing until something would catch my attention. As a car show, definitely a 2 day stop. Did anyone notice the condition of the 001 and002 firebirds? Not sure if the owner paid GasMonkey 600k for the off center front bumpers (silver car was over an inch) dented hoods ,jacked up trunk (red car) pushed in cowl and jacked hood (silver car)or the damage was sustained after the purchase .The sell price reflected the needed work with a pretty substantial loss. Ohhh, and the Power Wagons...
