You can count me in -- and this time I'm bringing the $100 T/A Convertible -- finished the body work and painted her last night (left the shop at 11:30 p.m.). She's beautiful! Pics to be posted soon.
Mark is putting the lights back on her today, new convertible top and my new center caps. Strange thing is she has a regular exhaust -- not dual, I thought these cars came stock with dual exhaust, am I missing something...anyway, don't want to hijack the thread , but just give you a heads up to not look for the purple shadow...lol.
Let me know if I can help.

By the way -- why don't you go ahead and give prices and your address so we can sign up now and get the money to you? Similar to what you want to do for next year's Nationals...sound like a plan?
And I have room at my place, I can help anyone without funds for a hotel room if it's too far from home for you to attend otherwise.

I've been lurking for a few months.
Talked to some other 3rd gen owners tonight up here about this picnic. We'll check our calendars and let you know.
Are "outsiders" welcome?

Looks like the costs will be as follows:
$10 ea. person
kids are free
$3 per car for the state park (paid at main park gate)
I was considering the everyone-bring-something approach, but last year we had a couple no-shows on some critical items which left us scrambling to the local food lion.
I would -REALLY- appriciate it if folks would pre-register (think: thirdgen nationals 2005)
My paypal ID is eds11979@hotmail.com, just put in the comments section your user id and how many folks. If you need my mailing addy, just shoot me a p/m.
Thanks, and see ya there!

Do you have a paypal account? If not you can sign up at www.paypal.com , it's really easy. My paypal id is eds11979@hotmail.com once you get it going. I will be bringing everything needed with me, just bring yourself.

Bad news for me -- my sister is getting married on the same day as the Picnic. I haven't talked to my sister in nearly two years (disagreement we had about how she treats my two children differently-long story) so this came out of the blue.
Since I want to let by-gones be by-gones, I'm going to the wedding and will have to miss the picnic. If for any reason I have to leave the wedding/reception early I'll know where I can go party, lol.

I can probably make it up there. First I gotta see if my friend is gonna buy this nice 87 iroc he found. If he gets it I will definantly go, if not, I might go, or bring him for inspiration?
Thinking out loud.

So who is in?
Pre-pays have been FEW.
It's only a little over two weeks out and if we want this to happen we need to see some real support/commitments.
If you are paypal'ing my addy is eds11979@hotmail.com . I am really hoping not for a repeat of the nats folks.
