[buggysurfer67]

Anybody planning on making it either day for this? it's close to home for me, so i'm hoping to be there since i had to work during the classic. Hope to meet some of y'all !

[KIM-P]

Im planning on being there. Maybe I'll be there early enough to park up front.

[BrianB]

Mine should be running by this weekend so if it does good next week I'll head that way. I may just go to put my money down on the raffle motor

[Don]

We are planning to go to the show on Sunday. Anyone doing the cruise on Saturday?

[blackthree4me]

We will be there for sure
if you all would like to mee up we can meet up on i 10 and head in togehter?

we want to get there early say 7:00 am to get a good spot they go fast.

Honestly IMO this is the best VW show of the year In texas.
last year about 150 cars.
I understand the classic is THE SHOW but I like this one better.

Ken are you coming to the monument show??????

[Ken]

I sure would like to, but May is really busy with kids end of school stuff.
I doubt we can make it, but I will keep it on the frig calendar and hope.
I sure could use that 1776 long block they are raffling...

Do y'all just drive over on Sunday or are there lots of TMC that get rooms somewhere?

[Bryan Porter]

Just drive over on Sunday if I get to go.

OK since evryone seems to be coming from different zones of Houston lets just all try and park together on Sunday
I plan to be there around 7:00 am I will be parking on the east side of the monument under the shade trees hopefully.
I will save uas at least 4 spots untill about 8:00 am then relaese them to first come.

[buggysurfer67]

Geeez!!! 7:00 am on a Sunday!!! ... see y'all there.

[blackthree4me]

Since its a 40% chance of rain we will be driving the ghia only tomorrow
same goes for going early but most like ly back it up to 8:00 am arival time as I feel the weather is going to slow the show down a bit
see everyone there

[Don]

I seriously thought it was next weekend until just now

[blackthree4me]

What a wonderfull show.
I realy like the change from the Back lot to the front stage. Allot of shade even thought there was about 3" of standing water in the Gras areas we were at.

Turned out to be a spectacular day of sunshine and VWs.
Saw some awsome cars coming out this year, 53 split, Doubel Cabs , air baged Barn Doors the list goes on and on.
Unfortunatly no Photos but the bay area site should have some photos up soon.

Coming home with a Best paint for the Ghia wasent too bad either.....
it was nice to meet Kim P and a few other Buggy owners looking forward to Salado.
