The Detroit auto show may be leaving Cobo for warmer summer temps, but winter’s Autorama custom-car circus isn’t going anywhere. This weekend’s show packs two floors of Detroit’s convention center and features more jaw-dropping beasts than ever. Everything from Ridler Award custom mods to Burt Reynolds’ original “Smokey and the Bandit” Pontiac Firebird Trans Am to the first-ever display of bouncin’, dancin’, shinin’ low riders.
