seeing as this is still two weeks away. figured i would see who plans on attending or entering their vehicle in this show? i registered mine this year. and pending approval i hopefully can show mine this year! however to any past participants. what was required in order to show as far as a display is concerned? was it mandatory to have a display or just optional? let me know.

 

Showed my Truck last year....think Carpet is a must and thats it....Make sure you only go in with under a 1/4 tank of gas also...

 

will the new 5th gen camaro be there?
i will go just to see it, i really want to see a v6

 

I will certainly be up there. It's kind of like an early Christmas to me.

 

Planning on going Joe and hope to see your car up there.... y conteste tu's pinches mesages ghuey!

 

I would only consider entering again if we had at least 6-8 cars in the same "club" display. I did it one year with Tiffany (Zangel) and it was awful. People keep kicking/grabbing those rope stanchions and pushing them into your car, even caught one teen sitting IN my car while I was away from it. With a group of cars, at least someone can always be on duty to watch the rest of the cars in the display.

People are very inconsiderate as spectators there, not everyone is as **** about their cars like the car show participants. I would guess that 75% of the spectators are not car people, they could care less about keeping their hands or kids off your car.

Avoid using tall stanchions if possible. The lower 1 foot tall ones work better. People won't grab them as they walk by, knocking them into your car. It is like a habit, people and kids cannot walk by a chain or rope without tugging it as they walk past.

 

We will have TJ's GTO there again. Last year we won best in class and most outstanding engine!

Tony perfect time to do that Gm High Tech photo shoot for the GTO.

 

pics of GTO?

 

I've heard and seen the same things Tony mentioned.

If you make/buy rails/ropes/stands to go around the car... make them paint friendly... I've once seen a beautiful billet bow-tie on top of a pole knocked into the car by a kid... scratch and dent
Make sure they are STURDY... you'll see some that the car is parked on top of, and the pole extends outward... that seems like the best idea to me.

 

I plan on attending

 

I am probably going but not entering.

 

got a call from the show coordinator. im being put on standby however still have to show up at 6pm on the 26th to get in if there are any openings. which im sure there will be. anyone got some rope and stachions i can borrow? lol

 

I'll be there as well. My buddies shop is putting out a few cars. One of which is a nasty 61 Belair.

 

I have to catch the swap meet

 

My car will be of show quality someday. It's been almost 7 years putting money into my car, have not got to the "show" part yet. I really admire show cars. When I quit working overtime, i won't have the money, but will have the time............I will try to attend.

 

what day and time is the swap meet?

I'd be down to put my car in since it'll be back from the body shop tomorrow or wednesday, but like tony said, only if theres a group.

 

swap meet u say?
what day and time.
i do have alot of quality lsx parts that im not using right now.

 

never considered mine a show car. but i definately feel thats its presentable. all this talk about idiots & spectatators with little to no respect for the show vehicles is giving me second thoughts! i still want to show . but the hassle of dealing with morons is probably not worth it.

 

I always did.

 

Take it there Joe and make sure you have something I can kick over to hit your turd car
