So talking to our group sounds like we only want to do the George Barris shop tour. So we may be going on our own?

Bad news from JR. He just talked to George Barris and he can't be at the shop on Thursday. He just got a new film contract, and he has to be on the set on Thursday.
We can still tour the shop, Just he won't be there.

Opinions anyone?

I'm in if we can still go inside. That place is a treasure trove of hot rodding and customizing history. George is getting some very good recognition these days, he hasn't always been appreciated by the custom car crowd like he has with the vanners.

Let's go anyway...It's a piece of history, and how often do we get the chance?

Just got confirmation from Junior through Billo that the Barris shop will be open to us Thursday. George will be on the set of the new TV show called "Car Wars" that day but if it rains he could very well be at the shop.
Although I haven't been in the shop I've seen the pictures and there is an incredible amount of Barris memorabilia in there. You just never know if we'll ever get this chance again.
