It’s over for another year but what a great weekend.  Nearly 12,000 hot rods, street machines, rat rods, customs and stock vehicles all of which had to be born in 1964 or earlier showed up for our annual Back to the 50’s car show.  Held every year at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, this even attracts over 250,000 people and is the second largest car show in America.  Of course if you don’t like cars, the smell of real gas and rubber, sunshine, foot long hot dogs and maybe even a beer or four, this is not for you.  Call me crazy but I arrive around 7 am in my ‘37 Chevy 2 door sedan and except for leaving the grounds for a non-hot dog meal around 6-7, I am there till 10pm.  It’s truly car guys’ heaven.  Click on the pictures below to get a larger image.
