Hi Bill, Patti and I will also be there Thursday around 2 PM. Actually there will be a few early birds. Look for us around the Mega Center. And like I told Judge 273 we will be bringing show cars inside the Mega Center around noon Friday.
As for trailer parking. There's nothing going on at the Mega Center but our show so on Thursday and Friday and our staff will be there to guide trailer parking.

We will be laying out the inside parking spaces Friday morning and should be letting the early cars inside around noon Friday.

Thanks Bill! I will get some more gas in her. Never like to be 1/4 showing with my wonky gauge sometimes.

The gauge on my '72 has been inaccurate since car was new, 1/4 is actually 1/8th and empty is empty there's no gallon still left.

Looking forward to checking out both days as a spectator. It should be too much to take in for one day!

Default new motivation...

Had to leave the show at 1pm to get to work by 4 today but I've got a cell phone full of motivational pictures to finish my father's 67 GTO. There is no doubt Pontiac people are simply the greatest in the world. Especially that couple from Tennessee! Thanks again for the electrical tip. Gonna go back tomorrow with some parts I'm not going to use and see what I may have missed. Hopefully if all goes well I will be in a lawn chair beside the car next year.

I went for a couple of hours and sat in on the panel discussion with Tim Dye, Bill Porter, Rocky Rotella, Scott Tiemann, and Don Keefe. Good info! Wish I could have stayed all day. Everyone I talked to was super nice. Wish I would have had more time to catch up with old friends.

I'll be heading home with an empty trailer. Best 10 bucks I ever spent. Thanks for putting on the event.

I was very impressed with how well all the volunteers help make everyone welcome and aware the events. I talked to several people and they all seem to have a great time.

Great weather and even better cars to enjoy! There's a lot of pride in these rides no matter what year or style!

Awesome event!
