Gettin ready for Ecklers April 9 SpringFest...
Im showing StuzVette one more time and was just wondering if anyone else is showing in the C5 Custom Class besides me...
...I think I have the Corvette Forum Corral set up again...
...that will be confirmed today...
In preparation...
StuzVette is in the capable hands of the Master Paint and Body Guy
...Tim Burke is making it alll pretty again...
The front half is being painted...
then with the help of Stangkiller18...detailing will begin hopefully this Friday...
A win would make this 4 in a row at the Ecklers shows...over 2 years...
I may get bumped...
...but I could enjoy that too

I assume this is the same Tim Burke who use to have Burke's Fiberglass in Fenton, Mo. back in the late 70's and 80's. If its the same guy he does do great work and your luck to have a guy like that so close to you. Good luck at the show.

I have arranged to have a tent and banner again during the show...
All those who would like to park in the Corral...get to hang out and take turns manning the tent area which is usually in a prominent area...
...Sharing time begins around 8am...
The judging begins at 10am and awards 2:30pm...
...so that gives us all little time greet, meet, and eat...

i'll be there for the Corral, i've also got a Corvette Forum Table Cloth we can use on a folding table.
Stu, you won't believe this...but they chose this week to start tearing up the entrance to my neighborhood! I have no clue why they are doing this or when they will be finished.......But i have a feeling a trailer will be a very good idea.
How's Tim coming along with the paint?
