I plan on having both cars at both events. All I need is to find a driver.

I might jump on a plane and try the Norwalk show but info is sketchy. I'm a little surprised that the Natl POCI doesn't email me flyers on things. Looks like the Pontiac hobby is getting thin in my area and it would be nice to get some leads on various shows/swap meets?

I've been to most every big Pontiac show that all the majors associations put on in the last 15 years or so and IMO nothing is even close to Norwalk.

If your a PONTIADDICT and your still breathing, you need to make it to Norwalk at least once before you draw your last breath. As I've seen over and over someone says they're going to Norwalk just to see if if it's as awesome as everyone says it is, they almost inevitably continue to attend each year after they go once.

Spending the money to attend Norwalk, $XXX.XX, the enjoyment of attending the event in person, PRICELESS......

A fair amount, yes. Getting tired of the parts business though. Tired enough to offer my entire lot for 50% of value. Trailer, delivery and all. It's time to focus on a couple builds I've got going.

Been going to Norwalk for longer than I can remember. Use to take my sons and there buddies before I got into Pontiacs for the second time. Use to be a one day show and look at it now. $90.00 for me and the wife to race and a chance to get all my monet back for two times to win. Go to NMCA races and cost $160.00-$230.00 for one chance to win.

Will definitely be at Dayton and possibly Norwalk with my son's 63...if it gets done in time. Both are a hike from Arkansas, though the in-laws live 7 miles from the show, so we'll be there for sure. Paint is almost there, but needs reassembly and still kinda looking for a 4-speed transaxle.

If I'm doing TX-OH (3rd timing hauling) you can handle AR-OH...

This will likely be my last Norwalk trip for a while, so if you need southern Tempest parts from me this is the year to get them. I am unloading much of my loose parts inventory and maybe a car or two.

I'll be at Speed Week in 2014 and maybe back to Norwalk in 2015 with the turbo car.

hope you do/did well this weekend, Hooter.

I am booked this weekend udderwise I would've shown up to cheer you on. My place probably isn't in your return trajectory, but if it is and you want to stop by (Melton's quarter panel), call me.

I’m officially changing the saying “come hell or high water” to ‘come hell AND high water.’ I’ve experienced both this month, especially this week, but I’ll be at Norwalk!!!
