Hi there,
I wanted to let you know about a great auto show happening next week that I have really enjoyed on an annual basis for the past several years.
It is the Central Florida International Auto Show, happening November 23 to 26th, 2017, inside at the Orange County Convention Center. Here you can browse the new 2018 models from numerous manufacturers all under one roof without any pressures of a sales environment. Several manufacturers have a test drive booth outside as well for select models.
Here is the site for more information:

Besides the new models they have other major displays including collector cars and exotics. Like last year, I was invited to show my DeLorean in the Festivals Of Speed display area.
Here are a couple pictures from last year:

Here is more information on that organization which holds other events like the show at Ritz -Carleton in December:

So, if you are local, or passing through Orlando during Thanksgiving week, I think this show is worth a few hours of your time.
Cheers,
Dana

Well, I delivered my car to the show today. I came in behind a rare Jaguar XJ220:

Judging by the cars that were there, it promises to be a great show.

Hi There,
Once again, I was invited to show my car at this year's Central Florida International Car Show. It will take place next week, November 22nd - 25th. There is more information HERE (http://orlandoautoshow.com/)
If you aren't familiar , you can browse the new 2019 models from numerous manufacturers all under one roof, inside at the Orange County Convention Center. Several manufacturers have a test drive booth outside as well for select models. Besides the new models they have other major displays including collector cars and exotics.
This year, the Festival Of Speed section is expected to have a "Celebrating Italian Automotive & Motorcycle Design" display. I understand my car will be included in it.
If you have the time next week, this show is worth seeing.

Well, I delivered my car today. The show is shaping up to be another good one. I saw 3 different movie versions of the bat mobile. Very cool.
Here is my car placed in the FOS area ( please excuse the dark photos as not all the house lights were on):

Hi Mark. Sorry I missed you. Because the show goes on for 4 days, it is more of a display-only format. I was there on Sunday afternoon with one of my daughters.
Hopefully you enjoyed the show.
Every time I display my car, I meet more great car owners. I have friends in another club that displayed the 40s-70s classics. When I delivered my car, I met the owner of the Tumbler. Great guy. He was the owner of the BTTF Time Machine that he sold for a handsome sum and it went to Japan. This Batmobile is his latest project that he had built. Here are a few pics when it arrived:
