Detroit Autorama 2022 at Cobo
Detroit Autorama 2022 at Cobo!
WHEW! Three amazing days of cars, entertainment, food and so much more! The Detroit Autorama 2022 was at Cobo Hall/TCF Center this last weekend from March 4th through the 6th. You came out and checked out all the amazing cars, right? If you didn’t you missed so many amazing vehicles! WCSX was there in full force along with our talented Big Jim, Ryan Logan, Donielle Flynn, Dave Dahmer and Bill McCallister! If you stopped by our booth you also got treated to the amazing work of Steve Galli, Detroit rock photographer! Wait, there’s more! We had the frame of phase one of the Stone Soup Bronco on display and the incredible volunteers of the Vets Returning Home was selling raffle tickets to win this soon to be beautiful Bronco. All proceeds from the raffle went to the Vets Returning Home.
There were hundreds of cars with rich histories on display from wall to wall. From Corvettes to rat rods. Cars that looked like they were from space to cars that looked like rusted-out jalopies. There was a downstairs that turned the world into a Rockabilly dream come true. With rusted rat rods, pinups, rusted beach cars and so many cool styles. Did you catch the pinup contest? Beautiful ladies take us back in time with gorgeous outfits and styles.
We met so many amazing fans, listeners and great people. We met Camp Freedom who were also auctioning off a vehicle for their charity and had their “Horny Mike” taking great photo ops with everyone. People that cars are more than a hobby or a passion but their life.
It was an overall exceptional three days with everyone having a great time. We will see of you again next year for AUTORAMA 2023!
