Thinking of doing a cool car show #2.

Dave:
Even if you can't bring the TTA down, you could still drive another car down or caravan. You won't be the only person coming without a turbo Buick & or turbo Trans Am. Come on down anyway, this is going to be a great show with great food, companionship, and some really nice turbo cars to look at. We would hate to see any of you guys miss this great opportunity to get together.
 
I started on my NHRA 25.5 chassis updates so the interior is ripped out of the TTA right now. I am hoping to have it far enough along to peice it back together and make this show.

If you somehow find you can't get it done, Nick and I have an empty seat in the truck we are driving out, you are welcome to ride with us.....

You have more interior than I do or will when the show happens. I have two front seats in, every other piece of beechwood is out. But I'm not driving from AZ either.

Hey Gary,
The GN is still in the build mode:D I just picked up the transmission today and parts are coming back to Lou....almost there:D

I'll most likely be in the Camaro....assuming I can get my Miloden oil pan to stop leaking from its welds....grrrr.....
 
Coming in my 86 T-Type... assuming it stays running that long :p
 
I guess that some people enjoyed the last one we did, because everyone's been bugging the crap out of me to do another. Yesterday, I went over and talked to John (Owner of J-S Gear, where we had the show) about doing it again. He was all for it, but needed at least four weeks to prepare the shop and sweep out all the old beer cans. After looking at his calendar, he said (in an Aussie accent) " Reckin' Sat June 30th 'll do". Note: The following weekend after that is 4th of July weekend.

Here's the link to last year's show. http://turbobuick.com/forums/threads/thinking-of-doing-a-cool-car-show.342612/
We had about 35 cars and 60 people total.

After talking to many of the heavy hitters that made last years show great, they all said that they could make it June 30th. Ralph said that he would hook us up on the same killer tacos as last year too.

Last years show was sort of a grassroots deal, that grew into what it became. So! If we do this thing, and accupy J and S Gear in Huntington Beach, what does everyone want? What would be fun to do?

I'm open to ideas. I've got at least one cool new thing that I'll be showing off for the first time at this show. Can't talk about it yet though, but I will say that it should be very popular...;)

Ideas?

Mike Barnard
 
I'm hauling my 87 Turbo Limited out to Lake Forest and driving from there to the show.
