If you are wanting to visit car related venues - texas, new orleans and memphis would not be on the top of my list. What are your particular interests and why did you focus on those three areas to begin with? A little more information will be helpful for those wanting to provide suggestions.

There are lots of auto shows. What kind of cars interest you? You can google car shows and the city where you'll be going.

For instance, I know people who go to British Invasion every year in VT. http://www.britishinvasion.com/

Sorry folks. I´d tried to be careful due to security for our selfs, but I might be too careful? Lol... We are interested in american car related stuff. We love everything about this culture. We surely like and enjoy garage sales, swap meets, meeting people with this interests, visiting scrapyards with wrecked old cars. Cool bars to see and a drink. over all cool stuff. We chose those places, ´cause these are areas that tourists normally goes outside. That means that we might not be able to see those states, bringing our families and kids. Everybody wants to see California, those highlights we count our selfs to be found later anyway. This is a boys trip.. our hobby to explore...

If you find yourself near Amarillo visit the Cadillac Ranch.http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/2220 I think you can see one of Elvis' Caddys in Memphis.
