Spring Break - Day 2

+

It's spring break this week, and seeing as there are lots of things planned, I'd jot down the main points each day.

+

Autorama. Bigger than the Detroit Auto Show (somehow). This is definitely the event of the semester. Other than maybe industry day/student exhibition. It was a good show, with lots of cars I know little about and bikes that I know a little about. My two friends that have actual knowledge on the subject were our guide.

+

We weren't just there to see the show, however. Tickets were paid for by the school so that we could man the school booth and sketch for the public. It's always a great time. You get to draw whatever you want and meet new people.

While on our shift, we met Andrew Berry, a senior at LTU who is also majoring in transportation design. He was friendly, very talented, and we got a bit of a first-hand look into what it's like at another school. I've very glad we got to meet.

Of course, the rest of the day (before and after) was spent walking around the show. I don't really know many details about the cars, but here's a truncated selection of what I found most interesting.

Rat rod truck.
+

Dutch Door Stop 101 (Model A chassis, Dodge body).
+
+
+ . +
1974 Vanguard CitiCar.

1972 Honda CB750 drag bike.

Beetle
+

Flying Finch (1946 Ford truck).

1988 Chevrolet S10
+

GMC 1500
+

1986 Shelby GLHS

1981 Honda CBX (Assembled from parts).
+
+
+ . +
1987 Harley-Davidson Sportster
+
+
+ . +
Hot rod truck.
+
+

I'm a bit embarrassed of my lack of knowledge. I'll get my friends to correct me, and I'll update the info at a later date.

+

My friends and I hit the road for Wisconsin tomorrow. Hoping all goes well. It should. +

Spring Break - Day 1

It's spring break this week, and seeing as there are lots of things planned, I'd jot down the main points each day.

Today is the first day, though technically not. There were still classes, but not for me. It is still winter, so the air is cold, but we gathered a group of people and went to the weekly cars and coffee event. It was expectedly devoid of much life. There were the 6 or 7 die-hard attendies, which was still nice to see. We left an hour later when there were only a couple left.
