SSLED bow tie color has been updated on raffle list.
this just in from bill harper aka Navy Lifer
I will be donating 1 (one) *Merchandise Certificate* with up to $250 value for anything I offer, as a raffle prize.

I will also be offering *$60 off any of the brake kits* I put together (at their current full pricing). This includes *HD12* front, *WRDC* (wagon rear) and sedan rear disc upgrades and conversions, to celebrate my 60th birthday! (this offer will be posted on Forum later today, too)

*Rear upper shock hardware kits* will be available at event pricing ($18 instead of $24 - $25), and half of the proceeds from any sales of these at Daytona will go to the clubs putting on the event.

If anyone knows of something I may have that is not mentioned above that they want or need, that I can bring to Daytona, they can contact me by PM or e-mail, and I'll try to accommodate them.

Examples of other items I have available would be ATE brake fluid, park brake cables, park brake lever boot kits, brake lubricants, rear disc brake backing plates and rear disc brake park brake repair kits. Unless someone contacts me to say "I want" an item at Daytona, I may not bring it for display purposes only.

Change in plans

Soo I'm deff gonna be at this show tomorrow!! Got an invite from a friend with a hook-up to get in for the free. Unfortunately I won't be in the 9C1 though. Where exactly is the Forum area gonna be set up so I can be on the lookout? Also, is anybody selling anything in the Forum area or swap meet?

Welcome aboard!
My first Spring Show was a definite success. Although I didn't win the SSLED or Oldenburger spoiler that I really wanted, I had beyond a great time. It was cool to finally put a face to the names.

Glad you could join us.
Awesome event!! Thank you for putting it on...really nice group of people and a nice tent/venue! I will be back again next year with the wagon guys. ;)

Had a great time too. Glad I go to finally meet some of you. I definitely plan on going next year, but this time I'll be bringing my SS.
We had over 20.wagpns there.it was gteat!!
How about some pictures?
I walked around a few times, couldn't really remember any of the screen names and really didn't know how to approach some of you guys, but I was impressed with the number of wagons I saw. Hopefully next year I can take my 9C1 and give my usual Fiero crew a break. (and I have to remember some screen names :D )

BTW, not all the hoods were up but I only saw two TBI cars. I'm a way off and missed others?

You missed a few. There were at least the two OCCs, and my Caprice (red with black chalkboard and terrible clear coat - LOL).

Even though my car was nowhere near show worthy, I had a blast. Didn't win the LED bowtie either, but hey, it went to a good cause. Us wagon guys put a concentrated effort on attending this year, and I have to say I'm hooked. It was my first real show. I'll definitely be down for Turkey Run too (work permitting...).

Here are all the pictures I took:

Here are some of the pictures I took as well...(mostly wagon stuff)

Great Photos!

I wasn't nearly so particular, and am starting to lust for a rat rod (which is reflected in the subject matter). http://s240.photobucket.com/albums/ff182/FlashGumby/Daytona Spring Show 2011/
So that's where you disappeared to....the show wrapped up, everybody left, and the Gumby wagon was just sitting there all lonely!

Good to meet you, brief as it was!

Met a number of new people, did a little business, and left a $90 donation to the clubs as a result--thanks to all who got their EZ-change shock hardware kit at Daytona!
Wow!

I didn't realize it until I just got an email from the show re: the Turkey Run being broadcast on Discovery Channel, but Mike Fuentes' SS won Best-In-Show Late Model Car (for the whole shebang, not the GOFASST/SoFASST group).

Way to go, Mike!
