I will be there with 2 survivor and 1 restored LS-6 and we are already set up as a group. Since only Dennis's car might be considered a SuperCar we can't be in the group anyway.

My cars would not be considered supercars, since my ZL-1 car is a transplant. So it doesnt matter on the car I know there is a lot of people on this board without a Supercar. I also will enjoy meeting you and others.

I wish I would have known sooner!! I am already set up to be in the display with the North Shore Corvette Club who are friends of mine even though I don't even have a Vette anymore. I am bringing My Chevelle for the Botie Award, My Monte SS for the Spinner, and My fathers 01 SS Camaro for the Spinner as well. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

Hey John, I am thinking of bringing my Impala. Do you have room?

Hvychev, what is the difference between the bowtie class and the spinner class? and what is the best class for a non-frame-off car.

Not really a "Supercar", just purchased from a "Super Dealer". Do you, DR or BL have any sort of confirmation about the cars being together? I still haven't heard anything concrete from the show; only what they told me on the phone. 68 COPO II is registered and Barnhart told me he would be there, sans ZL-1.

Bob told me he was confirmed as being in a group of three. Give him a call on Monday at 888-765-2232 and ask if he got that in writing.

L78 Bill, The Bowtie Class is what I put my Chevelle in. It is for cars that are clean nice looking stock but not 100% correct or for custom or modified cars. Kind of a wide class but the good thing is that your car is judged against itself on a 1000 point scale based on 1ST Cleanliness, then workmanship, fit etc.

The Monte Carlo is going for the Gold Spinner. This award is for a 100% correct restored car or for in the case of my Monte, a SUPER nice original that is still all correct. It is a "Concourse" award so to speak. They have an "expert" that judges the car also on a 1000 point scale on all the aspects of it's correctness. My Monte is all correct from day 1 including the original tires, belts & hoses that the car was born with and loads of original paperwork. Our Camaro is just a new car that is a easy winner but it was bought to be a show car.

All and all it is a good show with a lot of cool people, and a decent swap meet. The November show is the one to be at. Bummer is that their is going to be no showcase this year. This will be my 5th year and I can't wait to meet the supercar guys in person! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Rick, Your out of the Spinner Class because of those homemade Chevy, On The Move 70's floormats in your car not the air freshner! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Ok, so I shouldn't have made the 100% correct statement. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smirk.gif[/img] How about as close to 100% as you can get. Seriously Rick are you finally going to bring your car to Vette Fest?
