sunday may 1st 4 towns firemans training center merrick ny. weather report looks good. anyone going?

 

I've been going to this show for many years but unfortunately, I can't make it this year. It happened to fall on the same day that we're doing a walk for the American Heart Association in my friend's honor. Take some pictures for us!

 

I will be there trying to sell my mountain of parts. I drive a red Chevy van, stop and say hello.

 

I go there because Fusick will be there. I'll go early in the morning, shop at Fusick and then i'll leave. The Belt Parkway is a mess going to and coming back. The traffic is painful.

 

Great Show..used to go every year until I moved down here. Club has a great group of folks.

GOG

 

I'll be going, see y'all there

 

I went some years back, was a great show. Been meaning to go again, but can't this year due to a previous engagement. The trip back to NJ was horrible due to aforementioned traffic, esp. approaching the Verazzano (sp?). And driving a fullsize Olds over the Goethals while being passed on the left lane by a box truck and a full inch to spare between the car and the right rail is FUN!

One day, I will make it back...

 

Planning on being there with my 71!

 

I would like to go. Car in pieces, so as spectator. Can I get directions from eastern long island?

 

Southern pky west, to Meadowbrook pky south, to Merrick rd east, 2nd right

 

thanks, I will look for you van when there.

 

Ohh man, you got more ***** then I do, I would never take my car any where near the Goethals, that bridge is to narrow for 2 lane horse and buddy cars, and with the way these people drive these days.

 

damn i just saw this...id go just for fusick as well ...too late now tho ..mayb not wht time does the show end?

 

mayb not wht time does the show end?

Starts at 9:00am to 5:00pm.

 

It was a great show today, over 300 cars attended. I was planning on taking pictures, but my 7 year old wore the battery out on my camera. Rob, great to meet you today, I hope you sold a lot of parts.

 

It sure was a great show. Great weather and very beautiful cars. Spend $300 on Fusick. One thing that i was puzzled during the show is when i was looking at some of the 442 engine, i noticed that some of the notched valve covers was on the wrong side. They had the long notch on the driver side and the short notch on the passenger side. I thought the short notch is supposed to be on the driver side and the long notch on the passenger side. Please somebody correct me if im wrong.

 

Damn, and I am so close......I missed it. Why didn't you tell me sooner??

 

Hey Darrell, It was great to meet you too. Unfortunateky I only sold a few small parts, which didnt help make any more room in my shed. I spent more at fusick than I made, but its ok I will try ebay. If you go to any cruise nights on the island let me know.
Rob

 

I went the last few years but missed this one. I like it when it is a little later in the month.

Bob, it's Ron that picked up your MT valve covers. I am getting them polished right now. I'll post a pic when they are done.

Send me a PM with some of the big stuff you have & prices. I know someone that might be interested.

 

It was a good show, any one known of any other crusies/shows on LI? I know the one at Belmont is coming up and thats only like 1 mile from my house

With the hours of traffic on the Belt and the new increased price on the Goethals bridge I refuse to pay $25 just in bridge tolls anymore. Coming from NJ is just a pain. Look at the bright side - it's a good way of keeping us out of Long Island! Excellent show though
