If you are coming to look for parts, call suppliers and inquire about them ahead of time. If they have it, they can bring it and you can save shipping.  A whole lot of the activity on Thursday is persons picking up pre-ordered parts.

A list of the vendors expected to be there would be great.. ... as I hope to save some shipping dollars.  I'll be buying all the soft parts for this car at the show.

I just began last Thursday with a mad rush to finish body work, and paint the 57 Nomad body, I've spent most of several days since going thru my shop pulling out the 57 Nomad parts I tucked away 20+ yrs ago when I disasembled the car and did the body work.. (it's been on the rollover rack ever since; we even moved it to the paint shop on my homemade rack!)    I'm 65+, and I probably moved 2000 lbs of parts today, plus a 55 Nomad with all 4 tires flat to get to the parts that I tucked away...  Oooooohhhhh my aching back!!! 

PS.  Found some more parts from my '69 Z28 that I haven't seen in about that long too..

Gary,
PM sent about vendors list.

I am only looking for original parts for my 68 Z28.   I am going to bring a wounded 69 ZL1 block to sell.   Stop by take a load off if needed.

I will be there looking for original only parts for my 67, does anybody know of what field and numbers for venders I should be looking for?

[tom]

Among other things I will be looking for a set of donut spares to roll my chassis on preferably something like these: Mid- to late 90's S-10 pickup compact spares (T155/80D16 or T155/90D16) If you have or see them please let me know. I hope to be there Thursday or Friday.

I have the passes for those who requested them.  They'll go in the mail the first of next week.
Long range forecast looks good for that week (now).  Vendors and car corral requests are still coming in, so there ought to be plenty to see and buy.
Wear your CRG shirt if you have one.  Steve is coming and loves to see us wear them.
Gary, I'm sending you a PM.

Regrettably, I am no longer to make it down. Wish you all the best. Maybe next time.

Bummer! But we'll do it again in the Fall.

[tom]

Very much a bummer.

School has to come first, I need to make more money so I can buy camaro stuff. I will be interning in labor & delivery for my paramedic certification.

Passes are in the mail.
Remember:
Do NOT separate the stubs on the passes. They must be presented whole as you enter.
Wear your CRG shirt if you have one.
If this is your first time, you do want to pick up a copy of the program of vendors as you enter. It has a map and complete vendor listing. If they have run out where you enter or you cannot find something, ask at one of the HNR tents.  All the HNR folks will have on a yellow hat.
The best place to meet is at the Coker Tire booth, which is right in the middle of the infield and has a BIG tire above it.
Most of the time, I'll be at the AACA tent at the show field, which is located outside the speedway near the water tower beside the red field. (The red and green fields are outside the speedway.)

Forecast says temperature in the 70s. Chance of rain Friday.

[ds1]

Packed and ready to go.   4:45 am we will be south bound.  510 miles separate us from a great time.
