Well it has been a really long time since I have posted on here. A year ago today my mom, very unexpectedly, passed away. So a LOT has changed around here. I actually made the decision to sell off all the old cars and I followed through with that to the point that I no longer own any projects...

As found Feb 2006.....

Almost nice enough weather to drive. Pulled it out of the garage to let it warm up a little. C'mon spring time!!!!

Not trying to be harsh. But did you look at the event info (for dates) online before you went? Most that attend such events will look at the dates, times and cost, well before going to the actual event. I agree that if the person at the gate was not informed as to what entry was and what it...

So you pay $80 for the 3 day pass and $40 for the car space. That sure seems reasonable. As for the $35 a day for the friend? Why is that when single day tickets are advertised at $30?

Another red dart....dad pulling it in to the local indoor show!

Being born in 72, yes I got to see some of what the "dazed and confused" life was like. Just wish I would have been a little older to enjoy it. Watch Corvette Summer, Fast Times at Richmont High and the original On Any Sunday... :drool: Growing up my dad drove a 70 Charger, mom a 71...

I am also pretty sure there is a huge difference in the insurance costs from a swap meet and car show to a drag race event with a car show and swap meet. I highly doubt someone just said, "hey let's make the car corral $120 so we can load up our pockets". You have to consider both sides of...

Finally got time to look at the ticket prices. $30 - One Day Ticket or $80 3 Day - Weekend Ticket. So it sounds like you would have bought a 3 day ticket and $40 for the spot. Not bad. If it included 2 weekend passes you (2 people) would have saved money vs. just walking in for 3 days.

If it is like most swap meets. The price includes 2 weekend passes plus the swap meet/corral spot. Those events cost money to put on and take a LOT of work by a LOT of people. If it would have sold...would it have been worth the $120? I can see not wanting to pay if, like a LOT of people...

Now safely tucked in the garage......

Barracuda made its first outing this weekend!

My view for the day.....

About 8 1/2 hours yesterday clay barring and 2 coat of wax. Today a little interior cleaning. Maybe tomorrow night a couple more coats of wax if my arms will move.

Some elbow grease.....

BRUSHED have no reflection. Polished have a reflection like chrome. I know brushed is "correct" but I prefer the clean reflection of polished trim rings.

That is what I am looking for. Where did you get them or where can I get a set?

Duster2, any update? Sent you the info and have not heard back?

Back to looking for the polished 14" trim rings. Never heard from Duster2? Anyone know a source for these other than the $240 rings from Laysons?

Thanks

On the 70-71 rallye clusters was the trip meter dial a push to reset or turn to reset?

Thanks! It is amazing how close but yet how different the two colors are. The new Sublime has metallic in it. In the garage they look pretty close. Out in the sun, not so much. The new Challenger makes the Duster look yellow in some lights.
