Isn't that the BIG carshow. By participating I guess that means you are showing your car?
I go every year to see whats up and check the vendors for parts.
Car heaven for sure.

I want to show my 68' at the Turkey Run!!! I have never been there but I heared that this is a "MUST SEE" event - especially for Floridians!!!

:cheers:

Olivier

P.S. I heared that there are usually 3000+ cars participating!!!

This is the place to go if your looking for a classic, street rod, exotic, even some track cars. I never have enough money when I go to this show. I would probably spend it all if I did. Parts, cars, parts, cars. Its all there.

Better have your girlfriend drive the Duntov so if you sell it you still have a vette to drive home. :yesnod:
