Hello from the road! We're in the Mecca of Motorsports, Indianapolis, Indiana to participate in the Hot Rod and Restoration Trade Show. The show has been pretty good and informative. We've attended several industry seminars and met a number of great people. The show is more geared (pardon the pun) toward the Hot Rod side of things, which is fine with us, because we build/own hot rods too, but we'd really like to see more stuff that addresses the Restoration side of things.
We've had a chance to meet and speak with several influential people in the industry including "Speedy Bill" Smith, who received the Peterson Publishing Lifetime Achievement Award, Barry Meguiar of TV's "Car Crazy", Art Morrison of Art Morrison Engineering, Nick Arias of Arias Pistons, Sam Memolo of TV's "Two Guys Garage" and Brent VanDervort of FatMan Fabrications along with dozens of not-so-famous people (like us).
All in all, we've learned a lot. Tomorrow, we have another morning seminar we're going to attend and then we hope to make a quick stop at the Indianapolis Speedway Museum....after that, it's off to Jacksonville for the Amelia Island Concours.
Check back soon, we hope to have some pictures to post and another report from the road.
Happy Motoring!
