[Roadsters] OT Datsun subject: Wintertime warmer-upper, Local car show pics, (large sized pic link)

[Guy]

Greetings,
I went to the Barret Jackson Auto Auction yesterday.  Talk about excess. 
Wow!  Alot of great cars...but the prices....oofda!  It was fun seeing some 
of the cars from my past: 63 Corvette, 66 Corvette Sting ray, Alfa Romeo 
Spider.  I didn't see one of my all time very favorite cars...an Austin 
Healy Bug eye Sprite.  Good grief, that was a fun little bugger to drive.  I 
was hoping to see more vendors for the do it yourselfers.   Big mistake. 
This event is for the "pay someone else to do it" crowd.
Over 1,200 vehicles sold.  The most expensive I saw was a butt ugly limo 
that sold for $250,000.   Great weather.  A good experience.
