(Words and\u00a0photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>We started off this coverage stating we didn\u2019t keep the photos in order they were taken.\u00a0 This gallery has them from late morning to late at night.\u00a0 Many were cars we couldn\u2019t get a good shot of earlier and as crowds thinned we could acquire a clean photo.\u00a0 I now sort of regret taking video of the load out because we only have a few photos of the cars as they exited.\u00a0 This was the highlight of the boys\u2019 time at the show and they even braved the cold and went down the street to see cars head to lots where their trailers awaited.\u00a0 They got to see a fight almost break out and some weird folks talking to the police (think episode of LivePD).\u00a0 Educational.<\/p>\n

The first handful of cars in this group are from the Scroungers Car Club.\u00a0 If you\u2019ve not heard of them you might want to check them out.\u00a0 It\u2019s a world-wide club and their focus is driving their cars, wrenching on them together, and fellowship.\u00a0 To be a member in good standing you must participate.\u00a0 Next in the hallway\/stairwell\/whatever were plenty of offroad rigs and a good number of them had some battle scars showing use and abuse as it should be.<\/p>\n

Bright orange 914 Porsche actually had a flat-six.\u00a0 Never seen one in person before and if we hadn\u2019t looked closer we\u2019d walked right by.\u00a0 The gold 1972 Buick GS was very nice and the 455 even had factory cruise control.\u00a0 Not an option often seen on the performance models.\u00a0 The pale yellow late 40s (I think \u201948) Ford drop-top wasn\u2019t getting much attention, but it caught my eye as a subtle and clean cruiser.\u00a0 I am a fan of \u2018less is more\u2019.\u00a0 The British Car Club of greater Cincinnati always has nice stuff on display and typically add a London phone booth to the d\u00e9cor.\u00a0 The mustard-ish yellow Mini was actually a Canadian model.\u00a0 The last two photos are some of the few that appeared to actually drive their cars home in the bitter cold and slush.\u00a0 They\u2019re much more committed than I am.\u00a0 Or perhaps they\u2019re ready to be committed to an institution.\u00a0 Nevertheless, everyone cheered them on as they departed.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it.\u00a0 Sorry it took me so long to get this done.\u00a0 It\u2019s much quicker than some I did last year.<\/p>\n

Thanks for looking.<\/p>\n
