So we may be going on our own? | | | Re: Shop Tours for 2011 C of C | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 1,962 veteran | veteran Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 1,962 | Virtual, you are THE tour director in my book!!!

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?

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. | | | Re: Shop Tours for 2011 C of C | Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 6,266 Vanner Extraordinaire | Vanner Extraordinaire Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 6,266 | Let's go anyway...It's a piece of history, and how often do we get the chance?

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.
