Had a fantastic time at Bates once again! Thanks for all that made it happen. I got quick pics of all the cars. Here’s some of the attendees.

Good to see Nick out and about....

This had to be Mike and Eric's greatest show ever. Who would ever believe? Last count that I heard was 82 Turbo Buicks. Many thanks to Drewster for the great pics. Many thanks to the people that stopped by to say "Hi" to me as I was glued to a "walker" and/or cane. Also good to see all of the "Usual Suspects".

Guy's,

Sorry for the late response, I had a fantastic time as always! It was great to see even more cars and people in attendance than last year. I've been going to this show and Deer Park before it and have never seen such a huge turnout. Thanks again to Mike and Eric as well as all the vendors!! It was great to see Nick and his family as well as Lou, Gary, Lee, Drew, Jeff, Beto, Ralph the list goes on an on... The cars in attendance were some of the nicest I've seen, everyone should be very proud of their accomplishments. I'm already looking forward to next year.

What a great meet, I've been wanting to go since I first got my GN. The cruise down was nice and Everyone was friendly + all the cars in attendance were stunning. Can't wait for next year

I had a good time as well. First time my Buick has been out of Tucson in 22 years. Was hot as hell though, left Tucson to get a break from the heat. Enjoyed the area in the hills, lots of green and enjoyed the drive back to our hotel on Camp Pendleton. It's not often that Boost231, QWKRTNU and me get to cruise all three working Buicks at the same time. Will try to be back next year but maybe with a different car.

I was scrolling thru these pics again and I really liked the one of the cars on the freeway taken from thru the windshield of a GN. I have a similar pic above my desk taken in the early 90's on our way to a race at Famoso dragstrip.

Neal, who is that short, fat, really handsome guy on your right? (left side in the pic....)

That pic of Lou and Nick with each other is CLASSIC!

Thanks for all the pics, Drewster!!!!!!!

I hated that my car couldn't be there this year, however, next year my car will be back, better than ever! I promise!

I wish I got a pic on the 5 south with the 30+ cars but it was pretty crowded and needed my full attention...
