Default Toronto Indoor Car Show History

Motorama is a yet another new car show this weekend here in Toronto Canada.
I thought this photo was neat when It was posted it in there program.
Brings back memories of the shows we local Toronto guys used to visit.
Times are a changing.
Went to the show yesterday and I was not pleased with the over representation of Modified cars-Hot-rods-Tuners etc... that dominated the show as I am more of a Stock Muscle car guy.
For the $20 to get it in I gave it a thumbs down and I don't think I'll go back. What did you guys think of the show?
MCACN is the show to go to for me.

Thanks for the heads up.

I was going to head down so that saves me the trip. I went to the show last weekend in Detroit at Cobo Hall and it was not bad.

Like you, the ONLY real show to go to is the the Muscle Car Show in Chicago.

It is the best!

Paul

gave up on those shows back in the late '80s, far too many fluffed up, chromed up 'show cars' for my liking [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

Attended today and met a fellow sYc guy Al Corporon AlsV8vair. We had a great time!

I don't compare car shows in Canada to shows in the US, I just enjoy them especially all the Tuners:-(

Al and I live fairly close so it was really nice to put a face to a name, always awesome to meet car guys in person!! (In the middle)

My father in law came with me, he was hoping to meet Courtney Hansen:-) (on the left)

Great meeting you and your family Ryan. Good show but the people make it great.

I did not look in the program. That is interesting.
I believe my father in law was involved in the show in 1960. One of his old mates car was at the show today from 1960. It was a site to see.
