Frankenmuth Autofest Coverage

004


We headed up to Frankenmuth yesterday to check out the Autofest.  I hadn't been to the show since I was in college at CMU, back in 1999.  It was everything I remembered and then some.  It really is an amazing show, and considering it lasts 3 days, it really is a lot more than your average car show or cruise.  Those of us in Michigan truly are spoiled, with so many top notch shows, cruises, and cruise nights.  We are without a doubt the best state an automotive enthusiast could ask for.  This really is another show that I think I need to pencil in as a must see, and try and get my Camaro up to in coming years.

Can't say I ever liked this style Mustang, but there is no denying the engine it's due.

What an awesome Merc!

This is a car that fits the wife's needs, and one that is at the top of my list.  The problem is cost, as these cars sell for big money, and at their current low, are gonna usually be north of $25K.

This is one of the nicest second gen Firebirds I've seen.

With 532 ci, this thing was badass!

 Formerly my favorite year, I now prefer the 60 or 61 Caddys.

 This scoop is just too damn big for this super charger.  Scratch that...this super charger is too damn small for the scoop.  :)

I have never seen a Jeep like this.  Not sure if it was a home made project, or simply just so rare that I haven't seen one.

One of the baddest wagons ever!  I normally don't care for brown, nor woodys with very few exceptions.  This car is about perfect in every way.

I'm not sure what to make of this.  While I can appreciate the amount of work that went into it, I'd want nothing to do with it.

Another D100.
