Here's a few photos from this show until their website posts some.
The weather was nice enough and the park is spacious for this type of show. There was a really good turn-out, it gets good visibility.
Lots of interesting cars and some beautiful steering wheels too.

Nice. Wish I knew what they were. This sure looks similar to a roadster:

Well your Roadster look alike I believe is a Triumph TR5. Almost looks like a Sunbeam Tiger but the bumper goes around to far and the molding on a Tiger is on top

Nice looking car, but it's not as nice as a Datsun Roadster

I am not too up on Alfa Romeos, but the car in question appears to be an Alfa Romeo 2600 Touring...

The steering wheel is clearly Alfa...

The FIAT 1200 is similar, no doubt. The steering wheel is different as is the trunk lid.

This is the Alfa 2600:
