So... who went to MG2008? If you were there, did you take photos? I'm looking for a list of any V8's and V6's that participated ("factory" or conversions) and also as many photos as possible.

Here's what I've seen so far (on other message boards):

I think this is probably Peter Cosmides' car in the foreground, and that's certainly Mikel Moor's car in the background.

Whose is this? (I feel like I should recognize the red roadster in the background.)

This? (The white GT in the background appears to be Bruce Wycoff's car.)

Yes, that's Peter Cosmides factory V8 in the first photo.

The 1975 Flamenco Red factory GT is that of Don Peery of Oklahoma.

The white GT with the hole in the bonnet is that of Michael Egliskis of Maryland.

The roadster with the louvered bonnet at painted headlight trim rims is Eric Kent's V8 of Michigan.

Cannot help with GT "RBH 730M".
