Oh well, I've gone to WOW alone before! Should be there tomorrow afternoon on the way back from the great state of New Hampshire.
Hope there's a cuda somewhere....

You have to show your passport when leaving NH and entering Mass.  :villagers: Oh, and surrender your firearms too.    :roflsmiley:

I'm heading from NH to Foxboro tomorrow afternoon to pick up a radio for my Challenger.  I'm thinking I might swing by WOW on the way home.  It'd be a shame to be that close and not go.

I have LTCs in both states, I'm covered.   :2thumbs:

You gotta go, this is always a great show. Sorry I won't be seeing Phil and Jeff this time.   :(

Think I'll take directions from OnStar, doubt the disk in my nav has been updated with all the traffic changes
around the seaport area. Weather is supposed to be crappy in the morning, I've been hoping for some more
crappy weather to test the new ride in.

Ah World Of Wheels! Where you find yourself asking the eternal question "WHY would they do that?"
WOW is proof money and good taste often part ways.

Several nice Mopars IMHO, nicely restored. Orange Road Runner, GTX hemi, a gorgeous red charger, a '70 cuda with a paint-by-numbers paint job, yeck! 58 Caddy 60 that blew my mind, some nice SS's,  And *THEN* I came face to face with a legend, the car that got me into cars/drag racing DECADES ago - the original Joe Pisano/Mike Dunn funny car! I almost died, I was in tears. The owner appreciated the fact I realized the historical significance of the car, and he's local! Told him about the Father's Day car show in Hyannis in June, they might go, we exchanged emails.

All in all, I could have blown $30 on a lot less, had a great time.

That's similar to what I say when I'm in a pick-a-part yard: where else can $1 get me so many hours of entertainment?

I know, I know, I'm getting the same heat on the Acadia forum... didn't take my camera....  BUT when the owner of the Pisano car emails me pics I'll post them here, will I be forgiven then?

Great pics, loved those Mopars, and the moon car! Studebaker was awesome too. What it is with the babes around the cars? When MY CAR is at a show, I'm going to have half naked Antonio Banderas' in stereo around my car....  to give your wives something to dream about while you're dreaming about my car! HA!   :roflsmiley:

Did you see the Pisano funny car? Historical car....  and in the middle of the hallway so the public could put its germ laced fingers all over it.

Humm, I saw it, I'm sure.  But it didn't register with me.  I must have been distracted by the babes around the car.  This is the only "funny" car I remember:
