I talked to the owner for a bit. It's a 77 with a big block 511 w/ edelbrock heads. Sounded pretty sweet!

I think it's the last Saturday in February. Not sure though. Maybe someone else can chime in.

I was told via email today by the organizer that they want it to be the first Sunday of each month starting in March. So, the next one is in March.

Thanks for posting the pics. I have to say, out of all those cool cars the ZR1 C6 is the best looking by far. About the only one that comes close is the 430 Fcar and IMO the ZR1 kills it.

Looks like they updated the web site.

"Cars and Coffee™ Austin meets the last Sunday of every month from 11:00am to 2:00pm"

So I guess that implies there is another meet at the end of this month?

Yea, I think it's supposed to be monthly. They hold this same event monthly in other towns, so I would assume the same for Austin.

That's odd. It was franchised under Austin Cars and Coffee not Leander.

Ya, I know. we were all there.
I still think that is messed up. It's called the Austin cars and coffee but I have to drive for an hour from south Austin to Leander to attend a show with a misleading title. Nontheless, I enjoyed the show. I doubt I will go again. Too far of a drive to go to every month. It needs to be held in Austin.

Yep it was nice seeing your car there and I agree about the name. I think the same occurs in Dallas but not that bad of a drive still. I agree with you about the name but I'm just trying to make it a good and fun show.

I really enjoyed the event. Especially the hot chocolate.
I expect it to get bigger. You are really going to need to provide more parking though. I would like to go again, but we just have too many car events going on around here. We formed the NCCA so we had something to do and look forward to once a month. Then there are other car events as well. There is something every weekend now. It's too much for me. Especially having a two year old.
