You guys have been quiet this year, seems to be a lot less show activity.

Just curious if anyone plans on doing the Lasalette Show on Aug. 10th ???

Okay. After 4 days, 23 views and no replies Mark, I'll bite.

I'm planning on camping that entire weekend with the grandkids. (Oh yeah, and their parents too!). 1st time out in about 3 years or more.

Plans could change of course, but right now, I'll have to pass.

So, go ahead. Haul that 3 foot trophy away!

See if I care.....much....

Well alright Mikey, at least I know one person is still talking to me. Was really starting to feel ignored. So I thank you for the responce, but I must admit I don't care for your answer though. Tell you what, I'll let you borrow my Craftec cover to put with yours and you can make a Craftec TeePee back there and haul the family to the show. Just tell them no campfires in the bed.

Are you sure your going camping? It's nothing to do with being Chicken S*#t is it ????? Yes folks, I'm just breaking my buddy, gotta ad that disclaimer.

Thanks Mike. Later guys....

Good deal Ernie, look foward to it. Man, two responces, I'm starting to feel better about myself already. Cool.

Tommy, you coming in the Tux??? Nothing like a car show and a Cumabund ya know... as long as it matches the Elk.

Anyone else?

Hey Mark - I am still talking to you TOO --- Hey Ernie - I still have your trophy from that South Attleboro Lions Show at Lasallette from last year --- thats how long its been since I've seen you!

I would love to meet you guys there and present Ernie with his trophy - but as you know that is the day after my daughter's garden wedding - so between hangover and clean-up I don't think I will be able to make it.

As for all you other Elkys out there --- this is an Elky Class Show ! ! ! ! ! !

Have a great time you guys

Hi guys. Miss the car show season Sad , but do keep an eye on the hobby. Anyway, check out South Attleboro Lion's Club web site for more info, directions, classes and other info.

If I remember correctly, this was one of the better run car shows and does have a specific El Camino class. Plus one car will be selected to participate in the "Super Wheels 2008 Showdown".

I'm sure I'll be reading about all the ECC/NECOA winners from this event. Cool

Enjoy.

Well, four responces now. Guess I can hold my head high again.

Tommy-We'll expect you next year at this one, thankfully kids don't get married every year huh. Of course we'll let you know how it went.

Jay-Have no doubt your missing it, hope you get back in it soon. Stop in now and then, be good to see you guys...

Thanks guys...

Ya, i havent been on too much this season, still have yet to go to even the local cruise. I just havent had the time or money in a while to do anything. I quit my job at burger king with nothing lined up, didnt find a job for 3 weeks after my last day at BK, so im just getting back on my feet now money wise. But i love my new job, i work at Petco in Concord NH as an aquatics specialist. So im hoping to have my car in better shape by showtime next year. need to get a bunch of work done : new carb, alternator, radiator, hopefully get a new exhaust because mines getting rusted out a bit, want to get either a nice flowmaster, or some cutouts!

well i hope you all had fun at this show, ill try to come on evey once in a while. if anyone needs to get in contact with me, my e-mail is Davidvbinder@yahoo.com

Congrats - on your 1st Place trophy Mark...

Thanks for the pics Ernie.

Wish I could have made the show - its a good one. How many elkys total were there?

How much did they want for that Olds conversion? - pretty interesting.... and older than any el Camino !

See you guys next weekend in Sturbridge

Thanks Tommy, I believe there was 6 or 7 Elks total. Yeah, we missed you guys out there. If you have any other daughters getting married, tell them to do it on a Wednesday will ya.

I believe that conversion thing was at an asking of $17.500, I think.

blakkchevy66- Congrats on your win, checked out your Elk a few times, nice 66. Seems every time I went over you weren't around. Glad you made it, welcome to the site and region 2. Look foward to meeting you at the next one....
