I took my son and his friend to the World of Wheels show today in Glendale, AZ. It was at our new University of Phoenix (Cardinals) Stadium, where this year's Superbowl is going to be held.

So I thought I'd show off some of my photography skills and some of the best rods and muscle cars that were there.

I am disappointed in the show, though.. it used to be held at the Phoenix Civic Center and was about 3 times as large as today's show. But that's probably because the majority of cars are over at Barrett Jackson in Scottsdale this week.

This was a beautiful 68 Chevelle with every bit of Chrome changed over to brushed aluminum and created a beautiful effect.

Here's my web album on google if you want to check out all the pics:

Nice car. My Dad had a 1970 Chevelle SS, but looked like this:

That's the way a Chevelle should look! Nice.

The brushed alum gives it more attitude.....but then again I have never been a fan of chrome.

RE #2-

Thanks for the album link.

Thought the '41 Hupp was prety cool, too bad you didn't get a few more photos of it.

I'm whith you on that Mustang. WTF was that guy thinking.

Thanks, TG. Yeah, after loaded all the pics, I was wondering why I missed so many more opportunities. There was an interior pic of a 64 Plymouth but I forgot to take a picture of the exterior. Senility's great, isn't it?

I was actually originally talking about the charchol/black 2007 Mustang with the four air rams (the purpose of the air rams on the back windows escapes me), but now that I took a look at the Orange '67, yeah, I guess "WTF?" applies to both.

PS: where did your album go? Did you pull it down? I'm getting a 404 error right now.

Ooops. I changed the album title and it ruined the link.

Try this one:
