2009 Detroit Autorama Post #12

Another picture taken while waiting to meet Chip Foose and Chris Jacobs.
One of the koolest things at this year's Autorama was to see Ed Roth's restored Orbitron. If I remember right, this car was missing for several years. Someone found it sitting infront of a store in Mexico, barely recognizable. It was quickly purchased and restored. Pretty kool.

More pictures of some of the 60's show cars that were on display.

Detroit Autorama 2009 Post #11

Check out the floor board in this hot rod!


When is the last time you saw a wood Ford sedan with a Jaguar engine!?!

I took this picture while waiting for almost 3 hours to meet Chip Foose and Chris Jacobs from Overhaulin'.

While standing in line, I met one of my Hub Garage "buddies"...."Big E". He was lucky enough to get to spend the day with Chip and Chris. Guess it pays to be the son of one of the guys who started Hub Garage! :)

2009 Detroit Autorama Post #10

More pictures from the basement of the Cobo Center. These traditional hot rods are very kool.
This picture doesn't do this Chevy justice. Check out the "raised" ghost flames on the hood.

"Thou shall not covet....Thou shall not covet!"

Check out the Cadillac mill in this rod.
