A bunch of us from Winnipeg are heading there this weekend. I am going with a buddy and his 2010 Challenger. Another buddy is taking his dark white 64 Savoy max wedge clone. A couple of friends are taking their LO23 68 hemi Darts. The Darts will be with the Sox & Martin display. The red Dart has a new snotty 500ci motor in it.

Am i seeing this correct, a Sunday & Monday show? The poster listing above is for 2012. Is that a typo or last years'?
I'd love to attend! But i work weekends so if the monday part is correct I could make thte drive. Please help me figure this out.

No kidding. It's been a gray spring - hopefully this weekend pans out.

Either way it's an awesome show - I'll be there with my GTX. Looking forward to it!

Never been there. How many vendors for the swap meet would you guess? Is there usually a lot of 62 -65 b body vendors?

 

[65hemi]

There are usually 4 or 5 long rows of swap meet and vendors. You could spend the better part of day grazing in the swap meet. Many big vendors are there like Mega Parts, Vans, Legendary, Mancini, Indy, Stephens, Metro, Hardens, layson, etc.

Our plan is to go for the day Saturday but now the weather sounds a little iffy. Sunday sounds to be the better day. Need to decide which day would be best. Who is only going for one day and which one will it be?

 

[chargermike]

I am going Saturday forsure. We are trying to get our house painted and all the good stuff that goes along with that for our sons grad party the following weekend. I may go till noon on sunday, if I can sneek out!

 

[day1glo]

I work nights all weekend, but plan on making it out either tomorrow, or Sunday weather permitting.

 

[roadrunnerman]

Going up sunday with my daughter and her BF.Will be wearing ong of my B-body shirts.

Weather was pretty good today until about 4 then it started to rain. Show cleared out pretty quick then.
Thought when I registered I was going to be in Class C which is non judged, but instead was in class 300, 67 and older b-bodies. Oh well, lots of nice cars, didn't get to see it all.
Sunday is the burn out contest and free chassis dyno.

I was there saturday, seemed like a little lower turnout than usual? maybe the weather. I stopped over at your car Gpuller, you were out browsing the show! Looks good, love the cop wheels!
