I hope to be there, as a spectator though. I have made no progress on the '56 Panel that I was able to buy back after selling it 17 years ago. It looks like the wife and I will be staying at the Marriott nearest the HQ motel. I would like to meet other forum users. I will look for you Tacson. I enjoyed meeting you several years ago , I believe at the show in Lake Lure NC?
I wish someone would get that show going again. That was a nice location.
I will be easy to spot. I will be walking with a cane and stopping to rest frequently.

Last Spring I brought gator aid & water to entice FTE Members to get together on site. I’d be willing to do that this year if there’s interest. Drinks would be free to all that show. If Kevin or Joe would let me put the coolers at their space.

BJ,

There is a Kroger grocery store within 5 minutes of the show and a Walmart about 10 minute drive right before you get to the show site. I can help with buying either water or Gatorade or ice. Just let me know.

BJ I have a large Styrofoam cooler I can bring and leave as we have a few of then they are very thick and we used to use them on the MS 150 bike ride when we manned a rest area. Let me know if you want it and it is yours. I am ready to get going. Let me know if you want me to bring it.

I wish that I had been able to get my '56 panel on the road so we could drive it to this event. I have pretty much everything I need, parts wise. The plan is to swap the 500 Cadillac engine, 400 TH trans, and the Chrysler 8 3/4 rear from my totaled '56 truck into the panel. I will get enthused about it at the show and get started on it when we get home. Right now I'm busy trying to pass a kidney stone. I'm praying for good weather for the event.
