(Photos by Mike Brooks) – We love our photo contributors because they are some of the most creative, smoothest talking dudes that we know. How they manage to get themselves into the spots they do is a mystery to us but Wickam and Mike Brooks must be cut from the same cloth as both of them love to sneak, bribe, or teleport themselves into the rafters of buildings where car shows are taking place to get great and interesting overhead shots. Charles did it at the Houston Autorama and here Mike Brooks managed to pull of the same trick at the Pittsburgh World of Wheels show that he covered a little while back.

We have been showing you lots of photos from this show and today’s set has everything from killer hemi powered vintage drag cars to beautiful hot rods and customs. Indoor shows like this one are a staple for those of us who live in places where sunshine and roses are not part of the program all year long. They are a great way to see pals, oogle cool cars, and get that last bit of inspiration to finish your own project for enjoyment on those warm days that are sure to be coming…at some point!
