Dumb question - I don't see anything on their site about registration. Is this just a show-up-and-pay-at-the-gate? I'm still trying to decide whether I'm going - probably will.

I've been waiting patiently (NOT) for an order to come in from Germany; I really wanted to have the mod done for this show, but even if the order comes in this second, I don't think there's time to get the re-wiring, re-lighting, body work and installation completed. Guess it'll just have to be part of Miss Ruby's . . . RE-DO!!!

I was originally a "definite yes", but now I'm not sure if I want to make the drive out there. Mark me as a maybe.

I wanna go, but its a haul from Pa and I gotta cahnge my brake pads, ive been procrastinating and my top is broken on both sides, so I wont be able to go topless. I still havent been able to find a new center dashboard either, but If I go it might just be to watch and I might bum a ride with someone

Just finished loading up and will be heading out in a couple of hours. Taking a nice, leisurely weekend for myself.
Everyone have a safe trip. See you tomorrow!!

Ugh, not sure I can make it now. The stupid receptionist at work got me sick, I woke up today feeling pretty nasty. We'll see.

It was a great day - lots of fun. COLD and WINDY but fun. Good seeing you again Dana (hope you got all of your papers graded!), and it was so nice to meet Randy and Kate, and Joe; glad you all decided to come out. Gina, sorry you couldn't make it - hope you're feeling better.

The announcer said at one point there were over 1,700 cars showing - the largest Show-N-Go they've ever had. Don't know if that's true, but there were LOTS!!!! There were some SICK paint jobs (gave me more ideas ) and I got a chance to talk to some really cool people, so how could the day be anything but a blast?!!?

Dana - I'm hoping you have pictures, as I didn't get any of yours (SORRY ), the stock "random silver bug," or Teddy from Yonkers (the modified "random silver bug").

Pictures (from modified):

A bug named Debbie, shown by Steve, owned by Kevin - 1st place

Yeah, like Randy says, CONGRATS TO ALL!!!!!
