WoW–World of Wheels Fun

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Checked out the show today and here’s a few snaps of some of the fun iron on hand. Whatever your pleasure, be it the bone stock rotisserie resto job or the free-form rat rod rolling artwork, there’s a good afternoon’s worth of winter fun at the River Centre.

This bubble-top machine greets you as you descend the escalator. Fun to see a Hot Wheels car at full scale.

Always love Cobras and this well-done kit was on hand with a GT40 knockoff, plus various hi-po Mustangs–a tribute to the blue oval.

Interesting old stuff’s always a treat, whether traditional in inspiration or ratted up with some unpredictable parts.

I say, is that a Citroen DS one-spoke steering wheel? If you’re going to innovate with old stuff, may as well do it with old innovation.

Multi-gauge’s looks couldn’t be cooler.

Lots of cool looking old hot rods built up or being built up made it to Saint Paul.

And who doesn’t love an old speedster from the Model T era?

What’s the motorcycle doing there? It’s a Boss Hoss, so it squeaks under the felt rope with its 502 cubic inch V8–just what you need when your 1,000 cc bike isn’t enough.
