Looking forward to meeting!!

Well worth the trip!!!

Ryan

[Damien]

Thank you guys!
Dan and I have been talking about this for a couple of years so it is great to be able to make this a reality. I have been reading about this great show since it's inception and am pleased that it is the catalyst for my wife and I to return to your great country. We will also take in LA, Palm Springs, New York as well as Chicago. All of which, besides Chicago, we have visited in the past and can't wait to get back to.
We are in the process of organising and booking various things but any suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciated.
Looking forward to meeting everyone and putting some faces to names, see some awesome muscle cars and perhaps a refreshing beverage or two <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif
along with the vegemite sangers!

We look forward to finally meeting you Damien. Good time for sure. Enjoy our country even though most of us may be in a VERY bad mood due to the election results when you visit. lol <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif

[Xplantdad]

You will have a blast Damien. Let us know if you are going to be near Phoenix at all!

[Damien]

Thanks Rick.
Hopefully I can check out some of your fantastic restorations in the flesh!

Bruce,
We are going to try our best to get to Pavilions and catch up with some of you guys as well. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

Cool to hear!!

This is awesome! I can assure you that you will get a warm welcome from all of us. As many know, we love our Aussie friends, and one of them, John Clements, joined us with his Twin Turbo Falcon FPV, and is now a member of our staff. I am sure John would be happy to share his tips with you, and I can get you connected to him if you like.

Cheers Mate! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

[Damien]

Thank you Bob! We look forward to meeting all of you guys. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif
This part of our trip is locked in with our accommodation booked at the DoubleTree.
Should be great!

[427425]

Look forward to seeing you at the Pavilions. as well as in Chicago. Kevin

[Damien]

Fantastic Kevin, will be great to catch up.

[Xplantdad]

Hope to meet up with you at Pavilions, Damien!

[Damien]

The pressure is on Bruce! We are looking at our dates to try and make it work as we missed out on our last trip.

[Damien]

Well time flies as they say, as our latest US adventure is upon us. We leave for your fine country and this great show in less than 2 weeks and cannot wait!
The only down side is we won't be able to make it to Pavilions as we don't have a spare weekend to get there unfortunately. We'll make it one day Bruce!
So we are all booked for MCACN and have a couple of extra days in Chicago to take in this fine city. Looking forward to putting some faces to names!

[Xplantdad]

Have fun Damien! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

[Postsedan]

Damien......Handshakes, parts and beer will be waiting for you at MCACN <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

Off to Chicago from NYC tomorrow for us. I've been following the other threads on here and it should be great!

Glad you met me near the front door so we could meet Damien! Great talking to you!
Rick

[Damien]

It was great to put some faces to the names Rick, however brief our meeting was! We had a great time and the show was fantastic. Awesome to also meet Dan Vasic, Kurt and Karen, Kevin DeWitte, Dan with the green Day 2 69 Chevelle and Jim Hanke to name a few. Special thanks go to Kurt and the guys for a few Spotted Cows and Wisconsin cheese curds! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

We arrived back home yesterday after a 3 hour delay at the airport and a 15 hour flight. Needless to say we slept well last night!
As I said in a previous post we thought the show was fantastic and is a credit to those with the thankless task of putting it on. We did however miss out on meeting a few of you guys, Ryan being one and Bruce and the Pavilions guys being another, but hopefully we can remedy that in the future. So thank you again for the hospitality from those we did manage to catch up with and if anyone is planning a trip to Australia, our door is always open.
A couple of the highlights for me from the show are below. Thanks again.
