I will be there Friday afternoon thru Sunday after breakfast...

Look for a white mesh pith helmet, DarkSiders T-shirt, beer (conversation oil) in my hand. No idea when I will be where...

FWIW, I won't be vending but <insert shameless self-promotion here> I will have RediRads with me (box of 'em in my trunk) if you want tunes for the ride home.

Please flag me down if you see me - especially if I don't recognize you (slight by-product of the crash) - This is gonna be kind of a "soul-batteries recharge" weekend for me.

I had to look up what a mesh pith helmet was!

I'll be driving the Safari up Thursday early with another big car, a sweet '67 Bonny. A few other club guys as well. Leaving Monday morning as I want the full, first time, Norwalk experience

One more time I won't be there, but I have informed the wife to schedule NOTHING during the POCI convention in Louisville next year. We'll have to see about Norwalk.

Is anyone doing the "Darksider" t-shirts anymore. I have three of them, but my buddy just got a '66 Prix and I need to get him some. He's a lot smaller than me or I would give him one of mine.

I WISH I could convince them to make the shirts in a 4XLXT.

I'm sorry I won't be able to make it.. I lived in Cleveland
for 6 years and enjoyed going to norwalk.. I live in CO now and
it takes a lot more planning to make it.

Both my ponchos are out of commission at the moment and I'm also
between jobs at the moment so I have hurdles to overcome.

Hopefully my 66 Ventura will be ready by next summer..

Have fun all.. and try to get some darksider group pics..
( people and cars )

Not going this time. Have a memorial shindig for a mentor mechanic of mine to go to here on Saturday.

I have seen a guy on E-Bay in or near Norwalk who has just begun selling a 30 year stash of '65-'66 big cars and parts though. Anyone going may wish to investigate this further. If I was going, I would be all over checking him out.

Can someone post lots of pics of full-size machinery there, please (particularly '61-'64)?

Some of us are stuck a few thousand miles away on the upside-down end of the world!

I think that can be arranged!

Just don't fall off!

I just bought a Nikon D7100 that I'm trying to learn, after a couple decades of Canons, so I will be taking lots of pics and posting since I am kind of a post whore when it comes to pics. Now true, the pics may all be screwed up, but I'll do the best I can.

[Marv]

Thank you very much

I was going to take my GTO but now I'm thinking that I'll put an alternator on the '66 Bonnie "parts" car ... register it ... and come with it. It would take a lot to get it right ... hmmm ...

either way ... I'm there

Deadhead ... who is the ebay seller? His ID?

[rosconz]

Hear, Hear, Marv, I'm keen to see the "Big Girls" too

Can't find the guy now (since 2 days ago?). Maybe all the auctions ended? I am sure you will be able to find him there.

I am going without the GP as we are piling into the rv, stopping for cheap duty free booze, and trekking to the strip. We have a site on the vendors side friday nite to sunday nite (holiday monday) We will be the 3 crazy canucks shooting up the saloon (so to speak). Can't wait to do a couple trips to the burnout box for some sweet smells! See you guys there. I will be holding a bud light. still haven't figured out my distinguishing feature yet. Clown hair maybe?

[Engine-Ear]

Willshire, I look forward to meeting you! (I won't tease you regardless of your hair...I have NONE)

61 389-348, likewise. Also, I am a film-Canon guy...I have wandered away from my roots and have a Sony digital (with Zeiss optics). Your pic looks great...try to avoid the photoshop temptation as long as you can!!

Why? Photoshop is great fun. Plus you have to use it to be able to use it. And even with a fancy pants camera you still have to do some post processing.

Lats Saturday was the first car show I shot with the new camera, and as you can see, I have a long way to go.

[Willshire]

See you there matt. Now that i know what a mesh pith helmet is!!
