Classic Alfa Romeo dip&triptych
Lens: da35mm-al Camera: Pentax K-x Photo Location: Techno Classica Essen ISO: 400 Aperture: F2.4 

Hey there! Last weekend I ventured out to one of the biggest old and youngtimer shows around here. I took alot of photos, but despite liking them all separetly I found these also to be striking as a collage. What do you think?

There is also more on my flickr photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/hardleers/sets/72157626429839506/with/5597973492/

A nice series showing off these old classics.
What's to critique?
They're nicely rendered and well-exposed.
Perhaps the middle image of the red Alfa could have been framed with more of the car in the photo rather than having that negative space on the bottom.

I like your set of photos, and I second Ash's motion.
Also, you might want to try using cloning and software's other retouching tools to reduce or eliminate the reflected overhead lights.
At future indoor shows, you might want to see if a polarizer would successfully tackle those reflections.
Crowds of passersby are a challenge. The first photo would be even stronger without the people in the background.
In your Flickr gallery, I'm particularly fond of these photos:

Also in your Flickr set, the side-by side presentation of the two photos of the orange car is quite effective.
Best wishes, and I hope to see more of your photos.
