According to their web site it is this Sunday at Blacksmith. 7 am to 3pm. I have left a phone message with the contact person to make sure you don't need to register to participate. I don't know if they have restrictions with participants I would not think so.
Either way I am showing up.

An organizer called me and said no pre-registration needed. Just come and have a good time. Thanks for the update on the lack of shade. I am going to make some sort of shade for my chair. If you show up look for a 64 olds 88 4 door dynamic. The rear window has a large decal that reads "My Answer to Global Warming".

I have gone the few couple years. Quite a few cars from all eras. I don't put my car in the show, but I usually drive it there. It isn't in show condition. I am not sure if I will make it there this year but I'm going to try.

Well my car is far from "show" condition. It is your classic 20 footer. But I might get some good connections and advice from the event. Plus I am excited to meet some of the guys from this network.
Hope to see you there. I am bringing one of my Foster clients to the show ...he's excited.

I do foster care for vulnerable adults and adults with brain injuries. People who can't and won't be cared by family. I have a great older gentlemen who loves hot rods and car shows. But an all day affair is too much for him. So I am taking my other foster gentlemen to the show. These guys are great and appreciate car shows. They enjoy working together on my car and taking it to local shows. He is already packing the cooler!!

Great to finally meet a member. Great location for a show in Yugo. WOW was it hot. Glad I know my 88 can take the heat after all the work I have done on it. Great olds collection.
The MN olds club seems well run.
As you saw, many 442's and cutlas.....but a good showing of 88,98 and wagons.
Fantastic vista cruiser in gret shape all original.
The flags are great...they don't fall off the antenna and they last forever.
Keep in touch
