Roger,

I (obviously) will not be there, but I know a BUNCH of people ... most from the NYMC Club, Monte Carlo SS.com, & FGMCC ... that WILL be there. So, enjoy it ... and if you see any of the MC folks, tell 'em I say "hello". Yes, you can talk to them ... they are all a friendly bunch. Well, mostly....

LOL @ knightfan26917

I rarely talk to people outside of the vendors. If I talk to an owner it's usually to find out about it's backstory, and it's usually about a truck I tend to walk and look quickly to be able to cover as much as possible.

LOL!

I can understand that. But, your loss for not chatting with people. Just sayin'.

So ... how was it????? I MAY be heading to TN this week for the MC Nationals next weekend; was extended an offer I may accept. Not sure that I will, though. (And, yes, I know I owe you an Email.)

I decided it was high time I went camping, blast this unemployment millstone. Last time I went, I think it was with Camino. Always a great show. Looking forward to the pics.

Pictures to come soon.

A little disappointed with this show. It seems to get smaller and smaller every new year. A lot less for sale in the car corral area, the '50s offerings outside of Chevrolet has dwindled immensely, and trucks are becomong a lost art here. I was hoping to see a Chevy Caprice PPV in private ownership but none, I mean none, showed up. One Saturn SKY... one. Vendor area keeps getting smaller and smaller each year too.

Will I attend 2013? Sure, because this is the biggest "All-GM" show I attend. However, there may come a point in time that it might not be worth my time and money to make such a long trek. I don't know if the All-Ford and All-Chrysler shows are in the same boat, but if they're not Carlisle needs to address these issues with the All-GM show. It seems if you want to see a Camaro, this is still what the show is all about.

Sounds like our Great Depression of 2007 to 2012 is affecting shows period.

All trade shows regardless of topic have gotten smaller.
