The Best Musclecar Show Ever

November 19th and 20th are the dates for the best Musclecar and Vette show ever. I went to last years invite only 1970 show. I tell you it was the best I have ever been to. If you live near Chicago, you have to go. I posted pics of last years show. They had an H/O of every year lined up side by side. That was just a small part of it.

I hear that is an awesome show. I was invited to participate this year with the latest addition to my small collection---a 1972 Buick GS Conv. Unfortunately, I cannot attend because that is the date I depart on my yearly Thanksgiving Carribean Cruise. The cruise has become an annual tradition with my wife, and as much as these cars are a passion for me, traveling is the same for her. She is VERY understanding and encourages me to fulfill my "habit", so I can't and won't deny her the happiness this particular trip brings to her. "Happy WIFE= Happy LIFE" Until next time..... Dave.

You weren't there last year either. I know because the "Dave Stillman" section was empty. Just like the track day you had on your video. It was "Dave Stillman" day at the track. JK. Jeremy, I don't know about the Floppers section. There may be one, honestly. Every car is 1000 point car. Make sure to go. I will post pics like I did last year in case you don't. I have your number so if there are Floppers in attendance, I'll call you.

I started packing clothes for the cruise-------but maybe I'll pack some warm clothes and get lost in the airport!!!!!! Can you say flight to MCACN? Hey Jeremy, I consider all the ball-busting a compliment but PLEASE spell my name right!!! (Now I'm busting your's). Anyway, I hope everybody has a safe trip and a bunch of fun, and maybe, just maybe I'll see you guys there one year.

Hey lee don't worry I'm sure your car looks much better than mine. I enjoy cars in any state or form and I'm not one to judge. My car is missing trim and lacks an interior.

I believe there was a slight mixup here.

I'm Jeremy.

z11375ss is Jim.

COOL STORY by the way, that involves the 3 of us....

I hauled an old 350 away from Jim's place, and then Mr. Siltman PM'd me needing a KF water pump pulley.

Low & behold, a KF pulley was on his old 350. Probably on Dave's car right now.

'S'tuff1979 my car is a 1970, Mark's is a 69 w-30 and it is really really nice so it would help my competition if you took some stuff off his car before the judging. Thanks for your assistance.
