Best show in the U.S. Fly in for this one. The airport is close. Great venue. Here's a link as to what they have on the menu. Fantastic!

This is where the best cars are displayed. The Fouranado!

 

I believe there will be quite a few CO members there!

 

I think I know of 2 that will be there.

 

I will be at MCACN.


I am co-organizing the Post Sedan Showcase and have entered my 1969 Cutlass S W-31 Sports Coupe in the Barn Finds/Hidden Gems display.


Stop by and say hi!!!


Ryan

 

i'll be there looking at all the great cars.

 

I live about 20 minutes away, so I'll be there

cool Ryan, I look forward to seeing your car.

 

My wife, Son and I will be there. I would enjoy meeting some of you.

 

The others, not so much.

 

I guess it depends, I didn't want to box myself in being all inclusive

 

See you there Troy. We should have a meet at the colorful concession stand at 1pm on the saturday. Anybody want in? It's the one with the crazy colored stripes running from the top to the bottom. I don't have a pic of it. Does anyone else know what I mean?

 

Can we plan on meeting somewhere, at a specif time frame at MCACN or maybe even at a local place to grab a bite to eat? There are so many folks on here that I have spoken to, emailed, bought parts from, received guidance etc. and I have yet to put a face to the name.

I for one would be up to getting together maybe around 9:00PM on Saturday at one of the bars at the hotels surrounding the Convention Center for drinks. This would allow for everyone to do what they want for dinner (where it is always tough for a large group to converse) and not try to gather everyone together at the show which is difficult as well. There's a place at the Embassy Suites called Basil's Tavern that might work out well.

 

Sounds good to me.

 

I'm in for either/both group photo and/or after show.

I would like placing faces with names.

I am really looking forward to this event. My first time at MCACN. Meeting Classic Olds members. Double bonus!

 

I'll be there all weekend, flying in Friday night. Been helping a friend who's bringing a FAST car and another friend with the Stude in post car display.

A group of us (20ish) always party with pizza at Gino's East on Saturday night, so we'll be there at 7:30 pm, then probably crashing the Double Tree lobby afterwards, though I could walk across the street to the Embassy... The PSMCDR/FAST guys are partying at Gibson's Saturday night, so I'll probably stop by there too.

 

We need to decide what we're going to do. I like the idea of a group photo at 11am rather than the 9pm one. But, I would be able to make either if forced!
I vote on the 11am.

 

I think the 11 am meet up at Ryan's car is a solid plan. I'm in.

 

Didn't mean for it to be either the photo bomb thing it the other - both can be done.

 

They sure can! The bar thing afterward is a great plan too. Kind of a during and after hours thing for CO members. I'll see you all at 11am on Saturday at the Barn Find Area. I'm going to wear a nametag so you'll know it's me.

 

Sounds great!!

I really enjoy putting faces to names.

Agree the 11:00 photo doesn't mean the 9:00 can't happen as well. Do both, I may or may not see ya'll at 9:00 as well.

Ryan

 

I am up for both.

 

Great. I'll also get with Patton about having some name tags available for people at the later gathering.

Eric, do you know where in the show your car is going to be?

 

In the car corral but not sure where that will be? I almost had another car in the barn find section but could not arrange for another trailer.

 

Im for sure going but its in the air what time but if someone see's me feel free to say hi if im checking out your car. I truly love this show as a spectator and the people are awesome. You can talk to anyone and the atmosphere is very friendly. I'll probably be wearing the same hat and hoodie lol.

 

Is there a map/layout of the show? I didn't see anything on the site, other than directions to get there. Nothing for once you get inside.

Is it in the free magazine?

 

I'll be looking for you Copper!

 

Here. Beat the snow

 

Pics form today setting up.

I am stuck in a far back corner. Not the ideal place to have a car for sale. I thought I was going to be in the car corral? Where I am at nobody will know it is even for sale. We printed a couple for sale signs in the hotel lobby to put on it. Maybe that will help.

 

Figures. It's supposed to snow about 4 inches tonight!

 

Eric, I see people walking way back all the time, wouldn't be too worried about being in back. I'm going to try to do both 11:00 am and 9:00 pm. Though as of now I'm not sure. In the morning my twins wanted to do their driver's test but with 3-10 inches of snow forecast I'm not sure they will want to do that. I also have a memorial get together in the afternoon and a benefit tomorrow night that I'm going to but one way or the other I'll be at the show.

 

I brought the lid for you to look at if we are able to get together sometime.

I'm sure it will bee seen enough. Just thought it was a designated spot that everyone would know all the cars in that spot were for sale. I am sure it will be fine. Sure is an amazing collection of cars here.

 

i"ll be there tommorow evening. i have to work until noon but hopefully will get out around 3 pm ish.

 

Eric,

I know it doesn't help your sale per say, but it is going to be one of our first stops.

 

Question? On my vehicle guidelines is states these words exactly. "If your gas cap is not locked or secured by tape and your battery cables disconnected your vehicle will not be judged" it also adds that you will have to leave the show if violated. My question is what is it saying? I assume it means I need to add tape to my gas cap and disconnect the battery cable but it is not worded this way. With the wording it is telling me that if the battery is still hooked up then I don't need tape on my gas cap. I will ask them in the morning what this means but I may have to find some king of tape?

 

its Chicago so interpret the rules like our politicians and things should be ok lol

 

Don't forget to lock your sidearm in the glovebox!

 

tape the gas cap and disconnect battery.

 

Some more pictures. I am a 3 wheeler nut and was glad to see these here.

 

couple more. I will try to load some more tonight
