Goodguys Southwest Nationals - Scottsdale, AZ

The fall Goodguys Southwest Nationals is probably the biggest car show event of the year in AZ, this year did not disappoint, great weather, cool rides, and "better" deals this year at the swap meet probably due to the tough economy. All of the members from the AZ posse had plans so I flew solo on this run, which worked well as I was able to make five passes at the swap meet and spend lots of additional time smoozing with the other wheel vendors. The retro/nostalgia theme is definately picking up momentum and the old farts are swapping their billet wheels and parts for recreations of trashed out parts that they would have run back in the day - but are still paying the same. Thank god for old rich farts with more money than creativity if you have an aftermarket business! So here is an assortment of some of the stuff I thought was bitchin at the show.
