He is having the car trailered in on wed. And driving his blue coupe the same day. The other days we will have the convertible. Tri power car just needs someone who knows what they are doing with a screw driver

NO Corvette for the first time in 16 years but Jennie decided she and I MUST go, regardless. Any year would be difficult to miss but this IS going to be a big one for midyears and so many of our registry friends.

In case anyone's wondering why no '65 with us...
Rear end's out and so I'm taking my old core T/As and Dif to Vtech for his rebuilt ones at the show. Had originally planned on getting this done back in June but life really got in the way of a good time this summer. At least we have the DD to carry core parts to, and new parts back! See y'all this weekend!

pretty much it cleans out on Saturday, and Sunday is very lean on cars and /or parts.

$$$ depends on the quality

So I guess how much quality can you afford?

Is there such a thing, Dave?

I'm not going, my old truck is in 1 garage and my son's car takes up the other. Which is probably just as well, I'm not sure I could resist picking up another project!
