I didn't see any imports or low riders there last year, just serious muscle cars in this show

My buddy's 81 Bandit T/A will be there. It is Bad Ass!

I will be there too in the Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race display.

I dont think im gonna be able to make it Jody. We have been working the weekends. Drink a few brews for me lol. Tim

Will miss you there Tim. I am very excited however as my 7 year old son wants to go on Saturday.

Jody

I heard 28 Pontiac to be judged at MCACN. That means at least 30 Pontiacs at show, as I know 2 that won't be judged...

Wow, that is great. I hope you are getting your 71 Judged. I wanted to do mine but they want the car kinda like it went from the race track to this display so it will not be possible.

Jody

Who has time to Judge all those Pontiacs? Anybody that drives their car their gets 100 points from me....

I wish I could make it, but too much going on, maybe next year.

On a side note, how did everyone do during the bad storms down there?

Off to the MCACN today, I'll be in the vintage certified area...Doug

I plan on attending Saturday. Great show, missed it the last couple years, looking forward to seeing some Pontiacs there.

Anybody happen to know what Rosemont charges for parking? Is it still $13?
Trying to decide on public transportation vs driving.

Yes 13 per day parking plus entry fee 9am-9pm Sat 9am-5pm Sun...

I know for a fact there will be about a dozen GTO's there. Those are people I know. Who knows how many more will be there. I know I will be - with out a car of course.

I saw at least 4 1963 Catalina SD cars unloaded today and they said there were one or two more coming.

The Pontiacs were out in BIG numbers.....Great show...Great seeing everyone

great show and was able to finally put faces to names

Nice ride. I was able to check it out. As a matter of fact I may do the vintage certification on my 72 T/A next year.

Sorry I missed you. The certification process was great!

So how did the scoring work and how did you fair?

The car was judged in all 5 areas: Exterior, Interior, Engine Compartment, Underbody, & Trunk. It scored 2173.361 with a potential of 2784.44 which qualified for a Legacy award in Vintage Certification.
The items they deducted were things I was already aware of, windshield replaced, tires, 1 headlight, carpet, sail panels, master cylinder, spark plug wires, battery, starter, water pump, & exhaust (Gardner).
It was a great experience and Steve Shauger and his team were a pleasure to work with and get to know. I saw a lot of the forum members and the Pontiacs were there in full force.

I almost forgot! My engine is painted the wrong color and has chrome valve covers...lol

Here's my coverage of the event.

What a great show. I took my oldest, 14, he loved it.. It was nice seeing pontiac friends there... I hope to take a car soon........

Wish I could've gone...I attended that event the past two years. Today is my last day working as a driver for a detail shop that services the Stasek dealership (MCAC sponsor). Driven many cars for them.

Hope everyone had a good time and happy holidays.
