2007 GEARS model show pictures

[dparker]

Hello Everyone: Here are a few pictures for inspiration. I claim no responsibility for the expertise in making these, they are not mine but wish they were. It was a good show, but getting pictures without somebody's head or shoulder in it was somewhat of a challenge. Many model V8s were there but it was next to impossible to get close enough to take pictures due to the interest especially when one or more was running. There was even a aluminum casting demonstration outside, a few vendors were present again this year selling used tooling and reprint books.

Some lovely models on there, it always amazes me the detail some people put into their small engines, exact replicas.
Thanks for showing your pic's, much appreciated.
