Some more pictures I couldn’t withhold from the show at the art center. The art center is a college (like university) for car design, many of very high qualified and talented car designers found here their roots!

Once a year they do like an open house with a car show along and try to raise some funds… I was happy to be around this year so decided to pay it a visit, left Drag Day on time, this show was running till about 4 a clock…

Some pictures of various cars around…
