I've been hoping for a while to get a bunch of us together. Everybody says it's a good idea but as we all know the summers are super busy in New England. This may be the chance we were waiting for.

Decent small car show, easy in-out, Dunkin Donuts across the street. Last year there were only about 3 or 4 first gens. Let's make a showing this year! Oct 2, Melrose MA. Who's with me? Here are the details.

$10 but pre-registration is not necessary.

You will have plenty of time considering the Red Sox won't be on TV...hehehe! Sorry but I could not help myself

Come up and I'll give you a long distance award.

Sounds like fun. I'll be overseas until late Saturday night, and probably too jet lagged to make it, but you never know. The Camaro is running pretty good right now...

Maybe that jetlag will be in your favour.(note the British spelling) Have a good trip, mate!

Come to think of it, the 7 nights of living in British pubs will probably have more of an effect than the jet lag. See you soon m8.

The weather is looking good so far. I know some of you haven't got your cars on the road yet- that's OK, you should come down anyway! Bring photos. Hoping we can get some cars and meet up ahead of time and roll in together. Anybody ready to commit?

Tom,
My wife just informed me that my grandson's 10th birthday party is going to be this coming Sunday at 1 pm...yep that's Oct 2nd. This is the first time in many years that he will have his b'day party on his actual birthday date ! As a matter of fact, he was to be going up to the show with me. Oh well, maybe next time :(

Kev, that's a drag you can't make it but family comes first. Still lots more driving time left. I'll try to get down your way before the snow flies.:beers:

Showers predicted Sunday. :(

I will probably still go since it is so close but my hopes of making this a Team Camaro get together are fading fast.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed with the lack of enthusiasm on the part of my Boston area homies. Thank you to those that did respond.

new link. Old one broke.

Tom,

How did the show go? Can you post some pics in the Bench section...

Thanks
Kev

Kev,

You may find this hard to believe but I didn't take any photos. The show was fun and I mostly stayed by the car and talked with people because my son was selling candy bars for the cub scouts. But did get to meet one other TC'er from the area with a nice 69. Turn out was low because the weather was cloudy but it didn't rain. And we would have taken the place by force with a bunch of first gens. Next year maybe.
