Bates 2014 is going to be a blast. We started from scratch last year and ended up with 800 bucks left over to put into this year's show. Last year we gave out over a hundred free event T-shirts. This year we're bringing 150 to give out. Sizes will be from small to 4X.

Sneak peak of a first sketch anyone?

Is this more of a car show, or just a gathering? While my car should be doing well mechanically, my paint is in bad shape, and I don't want to be that guy who gets clowned by everyone else for bringing a "project" car, lol.

 

[deathraider6996]

With how tight knit the Buick community is. I would sure hope that people wouldn't be that way. Everyone has to start somewhere. This isn't about owning a nice/fast car. I believe its a lot more than that. A passion.

Maybe I just have high hopes because my car is no where near a "looker".

No way brother, bring what you have! Doesn't matter what kind of shape it is in, the point is to share a day of great cars, meet new folks, grab some really good grub, learn something from the guys who have been in the game longer, and maybe even go to the petting zoo! (You know who you are...)

Bring her out, it is always a GREAT time!

I second Squid's response

It's "All about the Cars" and the cats who love them.

 

[BigReade]

This sounds awesome!

 

[cruzn57]

Reade,...... you'd better show up!
all the rest of the LV crew will be there and you'd be the only one who didn't show up!
its all about the people and the cars, you will get so much info, ideas, help, from attending.
"don't be THAT guy" LOL

And since it's your first time...it may be wise to bring donuts!

Revised artwork. Turbo Lou is now driving the GNX.

Looks like the Chicken is trying to race you. Imagine that!

Well, that's somewhat better than Lou driving home the sheep.
