Although we made it on Friday, we had a great time meeting everyone we met. Yall have some great cars and some great people. Although the ride up here was a 12 hr drive, it was worth it to meet and greet with everyone. My heart goes out to the family of that kid whom the donation deal was for too. Someone please post something up for next year's get-together. I have a few more people with some fbody's and one with a vette that will be interested in coming up.

it was a fun deal. a huge turnuot wasnt expected bc it was cancelled all together as of 6 days ago. it was just our attempt at trying to save the event for future years bc it almsot didnt happen at all this year. thats why we opened it up to all GM to try to get more cars to show up. the 5 of us that ran it have never attempted to run a car show before, let alone do it in 5 days time, so we thank yall for being patient! may have hurt some peoples feelings that it wasnt JUST an fbody thing, and we know that by the body language some people felt they needed to show during the awards, but who cares. it almost died, and it didnt, we raised money for a great cause, so thats all that matters.
we raised $427 for little 2 year old brandon that has luekemia from greenville, so thats all that matters. we really appreciated the generosity people showed with donantions and buying 50/50 tix. one guy gracioualy donated a $50 bill, and thats what its all about. none of this was pocketed...100% is going to the little boy and thats awesome.
also, thanks so much to Hawks Third Gen and Matinstream Customs for stepping up and sponsoring the awards and door prizes! i wll get picture up within the next couple of days. i tried my best to get all the cars but we were runnig around crazy all day lol.

i think yall did one hell of a job for not having more than a week to plan this event, it was worth my drive to come down and enjoy the beach for and then end it up with a car show. sorry i had to leave so fast since i have a 7hr drive ahead of me. hopefully yall can get your stuff together next year and have one kickass beach week.

My wife & I, as well, would like to thank everyone who put this weekend together & the sponsors that came through with all the prizes. This was our first year & we had a blast. We met a lot of great people...it was nice to finally put a face with some screen names & to see some awesome cars! Looking forward to coming back next year...just gotta get the word out for f-body week because on the way home we passed probably 200-250 mustangs headed for the beach for mustang week. So, if the planning starts now, maybe we can have a bigger turn out next year. Thanks again to everyone...had a blast!

yeah i don't think we should have it the same time as Mustang week would probably lead to a lot of people being arrested and fights and such. Unless we had a drag strip to meet up at to keep everyone from street racing that would be awesome.
