Barrett Jackson 2008 Saturday pictures
 

Well...this morning Lynn, Holly and I went to Dave C.'s auction preview...and met up with a bunch of people!

Bud, Denis, Kevin Suydam, Charley, Mike G., Stefano, Rich P., Ed Montini and his friend (Carl, I think?), Chris Piscitello, Joe DeMesy,and the list goes on and on...

At Barrett we met up with Stan, Dave O. (still hasn't bought me my ice cream yet...)Bob A. and David Lindsley (you better come out to visit soon! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/mad.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif ) It was a pleasure to see you all! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif
For most of the day...Lynn, Holly and I sat and took in the auction experience... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Oh, I haven't seen busy guy Colin...but as we were leaving...he bought something...Maybe a Vette? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Any ways...here are the pics that I took...

Re: Barrett Jackson 2008 Saturday pictures
 

I have a PIC of me, somewhere, on the hood of my 1966 Comet Cyclone GT Red/Red 390, with hair down to my butt crack. I'll try to dig it up. I thought me and that car were real cool. Now I realize...only the car was.

Regards,

Mark

Just spent a couple hours looking at all your Barrett posts.

WOW!!! What great shots - you give us east coast guys better coverage then Speed - I almost can smell the power coming off the cars.

Thanks for all your efforts - I'll be tuned in for the rest!!
