World Of Wheels show in Pittsburgh

World Of Wheels show in Pittsburgh - 01/25/15 04:32 PM

Unbelievable is all I can say. For you guys that say there aren't any MOPARS in your area I pity you. I wish I could have taken pictures of them all but it would have been about impossible with the crowd they had last night. It was GREAT seeing people out and about during the Winter and spending money again. When I got there the rear of the line was a city block and a half, 4 wide at 4pm in the afternoon at a three day show. It was still lined up when I left at 8:30 Saturday night. We had a blast BS'ing in the line that moved along nicely. I've probably gone to this show 15 different years and never saw anything like this. Here are a few pictures with my point and shoot camera.

We considered driving over from DC just to have something to do and visit some friends we have in Pittsburgh. Alas they were out of town over the weekend so we passed on just the car show thing. Looks like some nice pieces there.

Jim when I tell people I've never tried one of Pittsburgh's most famous sandwiches people think I am nuts. We even have one in Harmarville 12 miles from me but I've never stopped there. I'm a pretty easy guy to please with a steak, burger, spaghetti, prime rib, or pizza. Really enjoyed the car show and got a copy of the racing schedule for Quaker City and Pittsburgh Raceway Park. Happy to hear they changed test n tune day to Friday now instead of Thursday. Also had a long talk to the Quaker City guy's and their heads-up class sounds interesting.

Yes indeed, there was a very nice Mopar turnout. I liked the aquarium in the middle of the floor space.

This Chief also caught my eye! Absolutely gorgeous!

I have been a Mopar owner, racer, and lover since 1975 when I bought my first 1972 340 4 speed Duster for 1650 dollars from a customer at a gas station I worked at. The Pittsburgh and Ohio areas are loaded with Mopar owners.

I made it up for the show. It was almost as if MOPARs were the show feature. Lots of nice rides there. The Hellcat Challenger was bada$$

If anyone needs a Summit discount code, I was able to get a few. Pghracer John has helped me out a few times with these, I would like to extend the favor to anyone else in need.

Just PM me here. I have about 10 first come first serve!

Great Pics!!! I was born there in Pgh and lived there until 1973 , I graduated from North Hills H.S. in 1972, my father took a job here on N.J. and I have been here ever since. I have been back a few times including two Mopar events at Pgh. Raceway Park a few years ago. Its great to see there are still lot of nice Mopars in the area.

Sorry I missed you, Doug. I didn't get back and settled in to the PRP booth until about 3.

Here is my album of pics:

Al, let us know if you're coming up to PRP while you're on this side of the country. John will bring ho ho cake.

John, how can you have not had a Primanti's sammich? It's good stuff! Ragin' cajun chicken, plus onions, yum. My brother and I took his boys to the one in the Strip the day before the Steelers playoff game, for their first time. I found out later Sophia Vergara was in at some point that day. That's a shame we didn't meet, but probably for the best, I wouldn't want to be a homewrecker.

Here she is posing by some dude... I like to think she's posing with our friend Josh Wirt.
