Now back to our organizers. DAVE MAHER, the "Grand Poobah" of the car show is standing next to his 1941 WILLYS COUPE, an award winning car that he wanted since he was 13 years old. He can be seen driving it around town and garnering lots of attention.
MIKE FEA is posing with his recent fave, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air he tracked down in Lincoln, Nebraska. It recently won 2nd place at the Tri-Five in Paso Robles. This is Mike's 12th collectors car over the years. Mike and his crew are in charge of parking all the cars at the show.
