It is happening on Friday Sept., 6 and Saturday Sept., 7. The host hotel has, in the past, been the Best Western Angus Inn and I am "assuming" it will be this year also. Their number is 620 792 3541 if you want to call and ask.

For more info you can call Mike Cooper at 316 655 1408 or Wichita GTO Club president Les Linn at 316 788 6969.

And that's about all I know. It's a little frustrating that they've done away with their website and gone to Facebook since you have to join to get much info and a lot of us simply want nothing to do with FB.

Thanks for the info. I've been wondering what's up with the website. It's probably too late now for me to plan on going. My wife plans things out quite a ways so that weekend has probably already been booked for something else lol.

Great, two weeks away. Sure wish that those that could have, would have posted this three months ago here so plans could be made to attend. Too short notice now for me. Other plans made long ago are in the way now. But thanks for posting.

Hoping my 70 GTO will be done for Tulsa. It is my first car. Been restoring it myself.

I received my copy of THE LEGEND yesterday and in it there was a full page ad about the PONTIAC UPRISING . As of the publication it is a go.

I talked to Mike Cooper on Monday and he said it is still on. I've made my hotel reservation, hope to see you there.

Barring any problems, I’ll be there. I’m getting my second cataract removed that Wednesday & a recheck Thursday.
I got the first one done two days ago & no problems with it. I assume #2 will be the same.

Jeff I just saw your PM. I will bring the parts for you to look at.
