Be there Thur-Sun. I'll be there in the swap area with Mike Terry, Fred Neitzel and Jack Kershlis and some other 53 guys. Look for the Blue Flame Restorations shirt and come say Hi!!!!

61Vert, are you making the trip from Iowa again, this year?

I am leaving Wed. morning to go up. I have a booth space. I was going to bring up my 63 SWC and sell it but I sold it Sunday so I will be bringing up a 95 Indy 500 Pace Car with only 3390 mls and all the paper work on it. I will have some mid year parts also. Stop by and just say HI and that you are a Forum Member. Booth Space J 113, you will see the Pace Car there unless I sell it before you get there. Mike Terry

I am going to go with my two boys (8 and 3). Also, does anyone have room at a booth to sell some C1 parts?

Mostly, small parts nothing heavy or large.

Is the swap meet/gold market any decent? Do vendors offer special pricing for the show? I'm giving up on mail ordering anything for my car and will only purchase cosmetic parts from now on if I can give them a good look over.

Will try to make it, been running from pillar to post working on the 67 and busy as hell at work. I probably live as close (Bartlett) as anyone does to the show, but have never actually gone to it. Not a fan of big crowds or car shows for the most part.

I'll be there as always, Wed-Sun.

Don't have to drive the '58 this year, fortunately.

Good luck with the 67. John Hinkley said he's one of the 67 judges so you'll be seeing him. I think a buddy has his 08 Pace Car in the Special Collection so I'll check out your 68 also.

It was great fun, but the 3 hours it usually takes turned to 4, and the heat, and traffic, and there was that whole stress-level... I enjoyed most of it, taking it to the GoldYear last year, but tomorrow Im looking forward to the comfort and air conditioning of the '03.

Great, it will be nice to put a face with forum members. To me Bloomington is not only about the cars but seeing old freinds and catching up with them.
