Anyone here entering their car at the Autorama in Cleveland in March?

No way, I don't want to camp out there the whole weekend to bodyguard it. :D

I was thinking about it, but I'm not sure if I want to spend that much time there either.... It's nice that it's in march this year though, if I do show there, I could trailer it from storage down there & then right back to my house after the show.. That way I could actually get an early start on those spring projects..

It's actually a lot of fun if you get some buddies to do it with you..Bring a couple of chairs & a cooler full of beer, and have a blast :D

What are the dates anyway????

March 16-18

The Northern Ohio Chevelle Club will be there in full force. One one side of the display will feature 5 frames / cars simulating a 1970 assembly line with cars in different stages of being built.

On the other side of the display we have 6 Chevelles between 1967 and 1974. We have put a lot of work into this display. Hope you can make it.

PS you might have a hard time getting your car in. Entry deadline was yesterday.

Thanks for the info, I guess I'll just go & walk the show.. To be honest with you, I forgot all about it, it's usually in Febuary either on the weekend that I go on vacation or the weekend before.. At least I'll get to go this year, I'll stop by & see you guys :thumbsup:

That sounds like a cool display. I'll check it out.

My car will also be part of the NOCC display at Autorama. I invite everybody to come and see the awesome display that Mark (72convertibless454) designed. Our club won an award for display last year and we are hoping to take it home again this year.

Anybody who attends....stop by and holler at us!

I'll be there, my buddy will have 2 or 3 bikes there that I'm painting now:clonk: Not sure if my other buddy will have the Teal 57 chevy there or not.

Mike, give me a ring, maybe we'll go down together..

I will be there with my black 66 in spot 917. This is a coming out party of sorts for this car, as I finally have it back to an original restored configuration. Any TC members stop by and say hello as I will have to body guard car for 3 days and will not have much time to walk around, I have been getting ready for this show since Jan.

Cool, hope to see you there!

Let me know if you need any help with set up. We are local and will have a lot of Chevelle Experts with tools there just in case you need help with your car or display. We have been working on our display since March of last year. Do you know Larry Robosin - he is our local 66 expert - ACES member #7, I am sure he will love to see your car. We are in spots 1243 - 1253. Let us know if you need some muscle to guard the 66, so you can look around.

My resto/mod '70 Coupe will be part of Micky Hale's shop display - less the hood. I can't get up there until Sunday, though. I'll stop by the NOC display and hope to meet a bunch of your guys so there's some familiar faces in Hudson, in July. :beers:

Enjoy the show!!

Andy

ps If anyone happens by Micky's location and has their digital camera handy, would you shoot me a couple pics of my car in his display? The wait is killing me!

Thanks.

I thought set up was always on Thursday night :confused: Have they always let people in on Wed ??

Scott,there has always been a Wednesday setup so the all the big trucks and big diplays can set up because once the ilses are formed there is very little room to get a vehicle down them.Thursday setup begins at 9am.

Hey JP, sounds like an interesting display. Can't wait to check it out, we're planning on coming to the show Sunday afternoon. By the way, you guys put on a GREAT car show last year in Avon. I'm looking forward to the ACES Northern Region show you're hosting in July. :thumbsup:

Ahhhhh, we always used to go on Thursday night, sometimes we even had cars to set up ;) :D ..

I left about 4 PM today and it was nearly full, supposed to be 500 machines, this show will rock! I talked to JP today and he said this was 2nd year at IX center. Hope everybody close enough can make it!

Frank,it was great meeting you and the car is sweeeeet!!!.I was there till 9pm working and we finished moving in cars at 8:30 and will move some more in on Friday morning and a few after lunch.The show opens to the public at 5pm.There are a lot of Chevelles and ELKY's

Good Luck Frank!!

You are REPRESENTIN!!! what 66's are supposed to look like :hurray:

Post some pics guys!!

I left camera in my car, cant post any pics until tomm.. I will take more pics in morning before crowd gets there. Met Mark today and his club/display is outstanding. Also Larry is a hoot to be around! Nothing like a bunch of like minded Chevelle guys having a good time.

Beautiful 66 you have there, missed just about everybody as I was there early and I guess the green beer took it's toll:D The Chevelle setup looked GREAT too, congrats.
The bikes I painted were in the Iron City setup, Black one on the turntable and the blue one with reverse graphics, I forgot to get pics though:boring:

I went to the show today. Some very nice Chevelles there!

Was this display there? I must of missed it or was just focusing on the shiny Chevelles. :o I remember seeing the blue Chevelle without the front clip or interior with the dummy up front "working" on the car. Also saw the video of the old commercial playing.

My buddies tried to get me to enter my car this year, but three days is just too long for me.

I think the assembly line display was the one with the frame at one end followed by a line of four or five 70 Chevelles.

66 and 70 were well represented. Maybe I can get my 65 done and show it before they level the IX and build the new runway for the airport.

Great pics..... I'm just sitting here trying to figure out where I know Joe from.... I thought he looked familiar when I saw him Saturday at the show, now it's just driving me NUTS......

I know Joe is very active in a large snow mobile club in our area. Maybe that?

Does he live in my neck of the woods?? Maybe the Southwest Calfe cruise on Sundays????

I'm pretty sure that Joe lives in the Columbia Station area. Not sure if he attends the southwest cafe cruise.

OK, one last stab at it.....Does he by chance drive a truck ?? I'm thinking maybe he might work for one of my suppliers......

Joe runs Clark Insurance Agency in Columbia Station with his wife. He has driven for a limo company in olmsted falls and has been a mechanic in previouse jobs.
