Run to the sun 2019
 

Who will be going this year? Just booked my room at the Patricia Grand so we can just walk to the show

I'm in this year!!! Going to take my newest acquired Pontiac. Can't wait!

We are staying at the Patricia Grand which eliminates parking headaches cause you just have to walk up the street a block and cross the road. I want to meet as many members as I can this year because I like putting faces and real identities with usernames.

I hope to be there again this year.

This is the only non kid vacation my wife and I get to take every year so pardon me if I get a little excited. I got and en from hotels.com that told my the event was 155 days away but I still am excited and can’t wait. We go to the Brazilian steakhouse of Saturday every year and anybody that’s attending that would like to meet up and talk about Pontiacs would be cool

I wonder if the hurricane and all the flooding will have any effect on the show and motels.
James

I have thought about coming to this for a few years. Can anyone recommend a hotel with good trailer parking?

I think the Hotel at Broadway at the Beach will let you park a trailer but I dont know what kind of Hotel it is. I think its a Hampton Inn but I am not sure. It will be impossible to find trailer parking on the strip. This is a great show that is HUGE. I dont know why it has never been featured on My Classic Car

98 days

I always stay at the Caravelle Resort. I park my truck and open trailer in their 4 or 5 level parking garage. I've never had an issue.

I've been going the last few years, but I've always taken my 67 C10.

It's probably my favorite car show to go to.

Not too much longer

I'm going to drive my 37 from Texas. Most likely be the only black 37 running around with Texas tags! Looking forward to it!!

I made reservations a couple weeks ago.
James

Are you entering your car in the show or are you just spectating? I saw you cruising last year but I didn’t see your car in the show.

My car will be on the show field. I just received my registration number today.
James

Just booked my room. I've gone for the last 4 years but have never taken the Goat. The Goat is going this year. Looking forward to it. Crab legs and car show!

13 days

Gonna check it out this year. Staying at the Anderson Beach Club

Staying at the patricia grand so we can just walk to the show

Is the Anderson in walking distance? Oceanfront hotel.

I don’t know

7 days

Got my conformation today, number 1570

I'm starting to make my way east tomorrow morning. Looks like around 1200 miles for me. How many of you are in the show?

I'm bringing my 65 GTO. The weather forecast looks good. 63 and sunny Thursday and 64 and sunny Friday.

I’m not bringing any cars obviously but I am gonna be looking for members sitting with their Pontiacs so I can put a name with a face

I'm booked at the Riverwalk and registered for the event. Also got my wagon up and running and if it doesn't vapor lock on me I should make it down there on Thursday.

I'll be there mid day tomorrow. I'm staying at the Caravelle Resort. I'll be cruising Thursday evening and on the show field all day Friday and Saturday. If y'all see a maroon 68 Beaumont stop by.
James

James I wanna see your Beaumont I saw you cruising last year but didn’t see you at the show. Leaving at 11 in the morning. Be there about 4

Saw you cruising last night but didn’t see you at the show. Are you in the grass in the center? I didn’t go in there. My knees can’t take a lot of sand and uneven terrain

Me and reelfun are parked side by side. If you are looking at Waves and have the "t" from the vineyard seacoast church to your immediate left, you are very close to us.

Moneypit, it was good to meet you. Hope you have a safe trip home.

68 Beaumont, me and Tiretread saw your car but your friends there said you were walking around when we came by. Sorry we missed you.

64speed, were you there?

I managed to get a glimpse of the Beaumont twice as it was cruising around. Looked real nice.
My favorite car amongst the 3000+ cars was hands down this Safari wagon. Warren was a super nice guy and I spent a half hour, at least, talking with him about his restoration. This was a highly optioned car with leather seats, etc.. Here’s some pics..

I missed seeing that one. Nice car.

Yes I was there although obviously carless. I saw so many nice cars but every time I walked up I got a not mine or he’s off talking to so and so. You will know me one day. I will be the only one there with a 64 Tempest LOL

I only got to meet Moneypit. Tiretread was next to me and we already knew each other.

Nice to meet you as well! Stopped in Alabama, should make it home tomorrow. Awesome show!!!

Sorry I missed you guys! It was a pleasure meeting you as well. Awesome show! I was there Thursday and Friday. Tried to see as much as I could. I'm in Alabama tonight, should make it back to Texas tomorrow.

I didn't get to meet anybody! dang. Me and reelfun had a great time and some good crablegs. Did see Beaumont's car. Thought I took a pic but can't find it. It was a great show with great weather and already looking forward to next year.

A shot of me, reelfun, and another pontiac parked at the show.

We all like pics so here’s another beauty from the show! 428! 4 speed, hood tach and GP nose I believe.

Nice car. I missed that one. I spent three days there and still didn't see it all,

I'm sorry I missed the guys that stopped by. I did meet one forum member but I can't remember who it was. I'm sorry, I am terrible with names. It was a great show. It was a little cool in the mornings but turned out very nice once the sun got up. For those that asked, I was parked on the front side of the show close to where the vendors were. If you saw the prison bus, I was a couple rows from it.
James

I came by and introduced myself, moneypit on the forum. The second time I came around to check out your car you were off somewhere. I agree, great show. lots of very nice pontiacs!
Colt.

Beaumont again I saw you cruising but missed your car at the show. Next year I think we should all get a table at Rioz and have a good steak dinner and talk about all things pontiac
