BigKev, Maybe if you link the videos to Facebook, but then only people with a Facebook account would see your videos in 360.

I don't do FB for the simple reason that I think it's the dumbest medium to communicate with.
But on the bright side; FB, Twitter & you tube are merging. It's going to be called: youtwitface!

See this thread on the AACA Website.

I posted some pictures in this thread but they rapidly got passed by with all the camera/browser comments. Back to post #34 for some cars I found worthy.

Not passed up by me. I saw them. Just no expert so I just enjoyed.

Just got back from Hershey and decided that I am too old for all that walking. I have been going to the event for over 30 years since it is only about a 21/2 hour drive. The expression that familiarity breeds contempt applies to my experience. When something is so available you tend to forget that this is possibly the greatest car show on the planet. When you talk to people who have traveled from Europe or Australia for the experience you are slapped back into reality. For those who enjoy classic cars it is Mecca.
I drove the Caribbean down to the show for its first real road test and was pleased to have it get me down and back. The fuel mileage was around what I expected but the car cruised at Turnpike speeds with the top down as quietly as any car I have driven and it did not overheat in the traffic jams.i parked in the car Corral with no real belief or desire to sell to avoid having to hoof from the public parking areas. I was only on site for less than three hours on Thursday and Friday but got my speedometer delivered for rebuild and got to see Joel and the crew from Merritt.
I hope that anyone attending got a chance to slip over to the Hershey Lodge to look at the offerings at the RM Auction. They had a restored Packard Darren that had been used on the Banachek series and a Thirty One coupe roadster that was amazing. They also had two Dusenbergs and a Pierce .silver Arrow. I had never seen the Pierce before except in pictures and it was amazing, but for two million bucks it should be.
For anyone who has not had the opportunity to get to Hershey, I suggest you add it to your bucket list. Book for the entire Wednesday through Saturday period, and wear good walking shoes. Plan to be very tired but expect to smile a lot.
Might have time to do the full term.....next year.

Be sure to stop by the PAC tent next year on the Green Field (under the yellow "Packard" balloon), for coffee, soft drinks, snacks and a private port-a-john (PAC members only).

Also available are back issues of The Packard Cormorant magazine, the Cormorant News Bulletin, club projects and various tee-shirts, hats, etc.

Dave (Owen_Dyneto), thanks for sharing. The quality of the woodwork in the Brunn is impressive.

I agree. I've had a little experience working with veneer on my '41 180 Limo but the pattern they managed to piece together is spectacular. I did have some pretty crappy windows to start with though:
