I have questions, hopefully you show veterans have answers...

1. How close is the trailer parking to the show area?

2. Do you leave your car there overnight?

3. If yes, is there security patrolling?

4. Anyone need a roommate for the weekend??? :D

Thanks,

1. Trailers are parked in a field across the entrance road from the park. Not too far at all. If you were to park your car in the area next to the trailer field, it would only be a few hundred feet.
2. Yes, lots of the cars are there all night.
3. They have some of the local club members walking around after everything shuts down. I have never heard of anyones stuff getting messed with.
4. Nope, not me.

Tony pretty much covered it!

As you come in the entrance to the park you'll see the trailer parking on the right. This is a field so park wisely if the weatherman decides to not play nice that weekend.

I always throw a cover in as well. It can get pretty dewy down there and it helps with keeping the car clean. We have a "camp" where we leave coolers, chairs, and other items right there with the cars. Been going for 9 years and never had an issue.

Good luck finding a room. It usually books up very early. This year could be different with the economic downturn :(

I may end up judging one of the "classes" this year. Hope to find out soon :)

I am seriously contemplating this show, my brother and nephew live near by. Is it the weekend after labor day?

John, if I make it, it would be great to meet you and of course all the Tc'ers!:)

If you guys make it to the show, look for a 55 Nomad, Gasser style, black, that has "The Mad Gasser" lettering on it. That will be mine. I look like a big version of Charle Manson.

11th, 12th, and 13th. Most TC members have TC plates on the front or TC window sticker somewhere on the car. Keep a look out. Brian Henderson and I have had the same spots for the last 3 years. Ric joined us 2 years and last year. Tony joined us as well last year. First spots at the back corner of the Bavarian Inn. Hopefully we can all get together again this year.

Most people that stay overnight leave their cars in the park. Like John said, no problems. They have portable pole lighting and there are always people walking around, even in the middle of the night.

Wish I could help with a room Dave. We have my wife, son and I already and Ray Barnes thinks we should let him and his brother camp there too! There are people that sleep right there in the park. In there car, under a tent, what ever. Check out hotels near Birch Run, it's 15 minutes away and closest rooms you're likely to find. Probably too late though unless the economy keeps people away, there are over 3,000 cars registered already.

I have questions, hopefully you show veterans have answers...

4. Anyone need a roommate for the weekend??? :D

Thanks,

couch or tent at my house 14 miles out......

I booked a room at the Flint Sleep Inn, gets me my points towards my platinum club status. :D 26 miles away, that's not bad, unless the traffic is killer getting into the show area on Sat. & Sun.
What kind of backup is there on Friday, to get in and unload the car? How early would I have to get there on Friday to park wich youse guys??? :D

Heres a link for lodging in and around the area.

Something to consider, there are always cancellations, so if you want to be closer to the action, I would start calling a few of these places. Its important to be persistent. If you find a place you want ot stay at, it doesn't hurt to call them at least once a week. This will show that you are serious about staying there.
I've never had any problems getting a room.

If you go to this awesome show once.....you'll be hooked.
It's a great show! Hope to see you there!:beers:

Dave, we try to be there 7:30 > 8:00. Some people will have been camped out all night because they want some of the more popular parking spots. Brian and I haven't had a problem the last 3 years getting the spots we had. There'll be a lot of people there Friday but the park is big.

Last year was a nightmare getting in or out of the park Saturday night. Hopefully Country Street Machines, local club, does traffic control this year. Police decided they would do it last year and they really f'd it up. Years before was never a problem.

Register on line if you still can. It will save you a lot of time Friday morning when they open up. Everyone has to file through the Chrysler dealer first. If you already registered they pull it up and hand you your bag of goodies, car sticker and wrist bands and you're out of there.

I've never had any problems getting a room.

That's because you have the same room at the Bavarian Inn every year.

ya think so !!! there fat buts wer to busy givin tickets downtown to worry about the 3 hr traffic back up out of town!!!! this will probley get yanked,,, but frankenmuth police r useless,,,,, dont EVER drive yer car in that town on a non car show time...

Really? We cruised downtown but didn't see the ticket writing. Then ran into the mess when we tried to get back into the park. It was a free for all, absolutely no traffic control at all. I eventually parked the car behind the pavillion and we hiked over to the inn. Went back later when things cleared and moved the car to our spot.

So it sounds like leaving the car in place all weekend is a good plan, unless it's gonna rain.... I don't drive it, so thats not a problem.

Dave, PM T-Man. He is THE EXPERT about the Frankenmuth show.

That's because you have the same room at the Bavarian Inn every year.

I'm talkin "Pre-Bavarian Inn days.
Whenn we first started attending this show, we stayed in Bed-in-breakfasts right in Frankenmuth.Two of them cancelled on us a week or 2 before the show. I decided to stay at motels from that point on. Never had a problem finding a place to stay.;)

rev yer car to high once and just let the front end pull up a little,,,, you will see a ticket wrote...

2. Do you leave your car there overnight?


Dave,

I have left my car there for the last 5 years and never had a problem. In fact when I got back Saturday Morning last year someone had wiped all the dew off my car so I did not have to. Thanks again Hank....lol

Hey, I forgot about that, you still owe me for that. :beers:

So if I can get up there Friday about noonish, what's the chances of parking with you guys? I read on the show website something about saving spots is frowned on.... :(

Dave...Noon should be a good time to get there. Depending on who is there already, they can space the cars out a little and save a spot that way.

Dave...Noon should be a good time to get there. Depending on who is there already, they can space the cars out a little and save a spot that way.

That's what we've done in the past. The trick is to get a few cars in, parked sort of spaced apart. Start setting up tents, chairs etc. Then as others arrive later you can move cars closer together. One year we were able to get 11 cars all parked together this way :D

Our camp will only be two or three cars this year :( The chevelle is gone :( But I'm pretty sure we'll have a interesting car in the group. A Pro Street Pacer with a 700hp LS motor to move it along :thumbsup:

Dave if you're definetly going to be there we can do what Tony said. We did that last year then pulled them together and made room for Tony, or maybe it was Ric. The first rush is when they open then people are coming in all day Friday and on Saturday.

It was me. No wipers on the Nomad, so I waited till the rain quit to come up.

I've got the room booked, and the go ahead from Corporate... (wife :D) so count me in. I'll try to post a couple of days ahead of time to let you know about what time I'll be expecting to roll in on Friday.

Thanks guys!

All right Dave! See ya there, have a good trip.

Looking forward to meeting you Dave! :thumbsup:

Okay, as show time draws near, I'm thinking noon-ish on Friday is looking good to go... :thumbsup: I'll know more next week....

We'll be looking for you Dave. Talked to Brian Henderson Monday night. He's planning on arriving a little earlier than the last few years, guess I will too. If Ric or Tony can get up there early we should be able to save plenty of room.

EDIT: That's assuming Tony plans on parking with us again instead out in the woods by himself like he usually does. :D

Hank...The voices in my head are saying "it will be OK", so I am thinking I will be joining you guys again. I will be heading up earlier than last year too. Did Ray get his car done?

Question for you guys who pre-registered. INn the past when I've done this, my car # will come back say number 1650 something or 1200 something. Always assumed that this was the actual number of cars that have pre-registered. Which makes sense since they get about 2500 cars total. Well two of my friends did this again this year and there car number was up in the 4000's??! :eek: I wonder if this show has really taken off in the number of people participating??? For the almost 10 years I've been a part of it, it's always been in the low to mid 2000's total....

I think I registered sometime in Feb. My car number is #73 :thumbsup:
This will be our 11th year going to this awesome show! :beers:

I'm #1322 and I regestered sometime in April. I just looked at the 10 day forcast and it says Rain on Fri and Sat, I hope they are wrong as they usually are. This is my 9th year in a row and its gotten bigger every year.

I plan on being up there early on Friday..Hank maybe we can caravan up on Friday morning.

I will be taking my daily driver up on Thursday Night as I will have to come back Friday afternoon and take my Daughters Horse out to Owosso for a horse show that she will be at all weekend (Can't get my wife to pull the horse trailer ) and get a ride back up on Saturday morning (and I'm expecting my car to be all wiped down and ready to show again this year by the time I get there).

Hank...The voices in my head are saying "it will be OK", so I am thinking I will be joining you guys again. I will be heading up earlier than last year too. Did Ray get his car done?

Sounds good Tony. As for Ray, not so good. Long story, it can wait until Frankenmuth. Hopefully he'll have the engine in again this weekend. It was in and then had to come back out last weekend.

Caravan works for me. I'll call you next week so we can make arrangements. As far wiping your car down again, not sure that work's for me.


As for registration numbers. I register via the web every year and I get the same number every year, W-380.

John...I registered in July and my entry number is 3725. It looks like there will be over 4000 cars this year.

Now all we need is Mother Nature to cooperate..... :yes:

Im 4476 holy freakin crap !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Not looking good. I keep checking the forecast, looks like rain all weekend. The weather guys have been know to be wrong though.

My son has a really nice Coleman portable grill, thought I'd have him bring it up on Friday. Anybody interested in having a group lunch on Friday or Saturday or both. Hotdogs, hamburgers and maybe something to share?

Yup. Sounds good Hank. I will buy the meat and buns. Will get it from the Butcher shop there in Town. I just ran the Nomad up and filled the tank. I'm ready!!

Im 4476 holy freakin crap !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

At that rate, there should be 5000 cars this year.

Yup. Sounds good Hank. I will buy the meat and buns. Will get it from the Butcher shop there in Town. I just ran the Nomad up and filled the tank. I'm ready!!

Lynda says she'll make some pasta salad and some kind of desert. She already packed the napkins, paper plates, salt and pepper, plastic dinner ware. Guess I better go check the propane supply and get a few tarps. Ric is bringing his Chevelle tent too. We'll put them together and set up camp. If we do get a little rain we can sit and eat and drink all day. Anybody else interested we could use mustard and ketchup, chips, nachos, salsa or whatever you like.

We have a folding table my son can bring up in the truck. I could use some volunteers to help haul the grill, 20lb tank and table from the parking lot because they won't fit in the Chevelle. Not with our luggage and coolers.

Hey Tony, Ray's Chevelle is running. We put the hood on Saturday evening and we went to Baker's yesterday. He plans on coming up Friday after work.

Wait until you see the detail job he did on the engine, looks awesome.

I have a canopy that I will be bringing and we can load stuff in the Mad to haul it from the parking lot. Be nice if we can get enough room behind all the cars for tents and canopies. I have a small folding table I can bring if needed.

Another question came to mind today sitting in the rain at Auburn...... will we be parked on pavement, or grass????

It's all grass Dave.

It's all grass Dave.

Actually after a thousand or cars roll over it, it's a lot closer to mud. :D

They do a pretty good job putting down mulch in the low spots to help.

You're spending a lot of time on TC today, must be raining there too. That sounds great Tony. The grill is 'portable', has wheels but rolling it over the grass and down the hills would not be fun. If you have the room why don't you bring the table, we'll bring ours but it's not that big. We can always try and shift our location a little to get more room for canopies, a little closer to the bridge is pretty good. Plus we'll get away from that speaker on the corner.

Filled up the Chevelle today in between the rain showers. Plenty of propane, I'll stop by ACE tomorrow and get a couple of tarps.

Check this, the forecast has changed for the weekend! :thumbsup:

Me likes that forcast much better than the previous one. :cool::hurray:
Maybe if we leave earlier this year we might be able to park
along the river?? Don't know if that was what your thinkin or not.
Just a thought. I guess we'll figure that out when we get there.

I can bring all the condiments, and I have a little table I can throw in the back seat of the Chevelle. I have the clamps to hold the tarps if needed and some extra tiedowns.

Hank, got the wipers working and changed the roller rockers backed to the stamped and it seems to fix my lifter noise. I'm thinking it was those rollers all along now. It was getting real loud coming back from Bakers on Sunday.

Checked the weather and it shows nice on Friday and Saturday....YEAH, but it could change by tommorow.

HELLO ! my 70 isnt done yet but i'll be there in my sons orange 70 malibu fri nite at the cruise. hope to meet some of you ! i'll be looking for tc plates and stickers ! LETS PRAY FOR SUN AND DRY!

John,

Nice car, you have a lot more patience than I do and I applaude you for that. We should be along the fence behind the hotel in the park, at this time it should be about 5 Chevelles, 1 Nomad and 1 Henry J, the Nomad and Henry J stand out and are crowd pleasers.

Fingers crossed for good weather.

Clamps is good, I don't have any. Ray says his rollers are a little noiser than stamped.

John, look for 2 black canopies with the Chevelle logo on them, oh and bunch of Chevelles.

and bunch of Chevelles.

:D :hurray:

I'll grab some chips and bring them along.

Hey Guys,

I will will be working the artwork booth in the vendor secton - hope all you guys will stop by and say hello.

Weather forecast looks GREAT as of now!

I use intellicast radar and extended forecast at work and they are saying only 20% chance of rain Fri & Sat. and 30% Sunday. Hopefully it will end up that or even better. I hate hitting rain. And i have to take a quick look at my wipers as they haven't worked since i put the new dash in this spring. Hopefully i just missed on the 6 pole plug and have to move it down alittle.

Beautiful car Buck. Hope to see you and the car next weekend.

So far the weather looks like mid 70's and cloudy for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I'll take that. At least they are not calling for Snow yet...ha

Weather.com shows only a few clouds, mostly sun.

Sounds like we're gonna have one "Chevellova" party this weekend!!:hurray::beers::hurray:

I'll try to stop by. What is the artwork booth?

Weather forecast looks GREAT as of now!

You will know it when you see it - 20 pieces of color art and lots of black and white art. There are two sections of the vendor area - concrete area on the left as you come in the main entrance - grass on the right as you come in. I will be on the grass. Brian from Zeeland knows my stuff.

dave, we try to be there 7:30 > 8:00. Some people will have been camped out all night because they want some of the more popular parking spots. Brian and i haven't had a problem the last 3 years getting the spots we had. There'll be a lot of people there friday but the park is big.

i know some of the people that put on the show. Traffic problem last year was a big concern and they have made changes to make it easier. That was the first time i saw it that bad.

Weather report is looking good, so I think the car will stay out from Friday until Sunday. Just cover it up overnight. Should be enough people to watch over it. As long as I can dump the trailer there somewhere so I can take my truck back and forth to Flint, I'll be good. It's all insured so I'm not worried about it. :D

Hey Bruce...Can you ask the people that you know why is it we have to stand in line when we are pre-registered? It seems like they could mail us our entry stickers.That way we could just drive in and park instead of standing and sitting in line forever. Just wondering.
I have the 55 Nomad Gasser car if you get to the show, stop and introduce yourself. Anyone else, for that matter, stop by.

I'll bring it up. I will be around most of the weekend. Anyone who doesn't know there is a cruz-in at the McDonalds at the north end of town toinght from 5pm till ? The guy who owns the McDonald's is one of the organizers of the show. Some of the nicer cars from the show are usually there. Year before last Dick LaHaie The NHRA top fuel driver & tuner was there with his woody wagon. If anybody needs a place to stash their tow rig for the weekend I live about 6 miles northwest of the town a ten minute drive. I have an empty lot next to my place plenty of room for a few tow rigs. quiet country area nobody messes with anything. So if you want a place to drop your rig and just drive your car back into town PM me and i will give you directions.

There is a nice place to stay in Bridgeport about 6 miles from Frankenmuth. Baymont Inn 989-777-3000 is their number. Right next to highway plenty of restuarants within walking distance. Dont know if they are booked but it's a nice place. There are usually a few trailers there but I don't think they fill up it's worth a shot.

Well, I'm ready, almost. Have to take a shower and get some sleep. Looks like Ray will be bringing his Chevelle up. I was at his house on Saturday, Tuesday, and tonight. It's been on and off for him but I think he's got it running pretty good now and will be joining us tomorrow afternoon. :hurray: Keep your fingers crossed. It's been one thing after another with his car.

Ric's friends John and Mike will also be coming tomorrow morning. That makes 6 Chevelles, a Henry J and the Mad Gasser. Ric made a sign for us and some Team Chevelle "I'm out cruising" signs for holding your spots. :thumbsup: I'm thinking we're going to have a great weekend. Really looking forward to this guys, see you all tomorrow. :beers:

Hey guys i look forward to meeting some of you this year I unfortunately won't have a car with me but will enjoy the show none the less.

I'm loading up now. See you all in a couple of hours.

I'm loading up now. See you all in a couple of hours.

Yep. :yes: :thumbsup:

Hi Guys,

Just got back from the Frankenmuth show and we were car # 5640----one of the many red with black stripes 70 Chevelles. Great weather, had lots of fun!!

Hey Mike,
Glad to hear you made it to Frankenmuth!:thumbsup:
Did you stop by the "Team Chevelle" camp and say Hi?:hurray:
We were right behind the Bavarian Inn. There was a row of canopies, two of them were black "Chevelle" canopies.
The weather was simply awesome!

We were walking around and looking everywhere, but missed you guys, was hoping to meet some of you

The weather was perfect, a slow start on Friday but the placed filled up on Saturday. We had Ray, Ric, Tony, Brian, Dave and myself from TC. We also had John with his 69 Chevelle and Mike with a Henry J in the group.

Got to spend the weekend with a lot of good people and see a lot of good cars. I have a few pics of the group I'll post later. Also, I found a small blue nylon bag on the ground last night. Too small for a chair, less than 2 feet long. Tony, is it for one of your little blue - what were those anyway? Kathy, AKA Tony's Phone, said it was safe for me to sit on but I wasn't in the mood for a colonoscopy at the time.

Yep, best weather I can remember up there. I had a good time, wife had a good time. Putting the canopies together was a good plan. I missed when everyone, except Hank and Lynda, pulled out. Mabey see you guys next year.
That blue bag is to hook on the GOOD chairs we had Hank. Company gets the small rickety ones that are scary to sit on. They don't stay long that way.

I had a great time. Thanks to all for the hospitality. It was nice with the tents to have somewhere out of the sun to sit. I got home about 1pm, it was a nice leisurely drive home. :thumbsup:

Hey, all you had to do was say go away! Kathy didn't have to try and make me sit on that thing. I'll slide the beers you left in my cooler into that bag, along with some ice, maybe a few smokes and send it to you. :D

Send me your address or I'll get it back to you some other time.

I had a great time. Thanks to all for the hospitality. It was nice with the tents to have somewhere out of the sun to sit. I got home about 1pm, it was a nice leasurely drive home. :thumbsup:

Glad you could make it this year Dave. It was nice to meet you and have you join the group for the weekend. I had a great time too.

Nah Hank, you were a part of the group, not a guest. The guests I am refering too are those guys that told me everything about MY own car. How I shoulda did the chassis different, a " 427 aint as goot as a 305 punched out", "it aint no Gasser ifn it aint got no willy bars" kind of guys. And the dozen or so that said they had a Nomad they sold for 600 bucks.
Hang onto the bag, Kathy says we only had one and it's here. She thinks it's funny to see people trying to sit on those damn chairs. Kinda got a sicko streak or something. I guess you could send me some smokes though. A case of Winstons, please. Throw a bottle of 2 of "grape crush" in there too! Hope you had a good trip home.
Dave, real nice car you have. Seen lots of lookers at it. Good luck with your shop, hope to see ya next year too.

I was going to point out a few of those issues with your car but I knew you were 'packing'. :eek:

PM me your address and I'll send the bag.

It was a great weekend and I'm glad that everyone showed up....I'm just sorry I did not get to be there Friday night for the big party...but daughter and horse came first per wife.

It was a slow ride home following Ray, we did not get over 60...but that was for the best anyway. I did change his route a little bit as he had it mapped to take Dort Hwy all the way to Steward to get on 475. As Tony knows, that is not the area you want to be in at 9:30 at night with your windows down. We ended up taking Clio rd all the way to 475 instead.

Maybe we can get more people next year....5 tents together this year...lets shoot for 8 next year.

Also, I think we all need to thank Ray for being security guard and sleeping under the tents and watching our cars all night. I know I slept better knowing he was on guard....ha.

Was he joking about using Tony's Mad Gaser for a little private place for one of the car groupies there that night? ha

Dave, I'll be in Auburn all week and some of next week, I'd like to come over and see your new shop if you'll be around.

Hey Guys,
I just wanted to say that we had a great time. Like Ric said,
it would be really cool if we can talk a few more Team Chevelle guys
into coming to this awesome carshow next year!:thumbsup:
We'll have to do another cook out next year.
Thanks for the awesome burgers and dogs "Chef Hank":beers:
How about a Team Chevelle pot luck next year? :D
Dave, it was a pleasure meeting you. GL selling your Chevelle.;)
See you all next year!

Brian

:thumbsup:

Ric- I'll be in Mackinaw until Sunday evening.... I'll PM you my cell number, I'll be in and out all next week working with another shop to finish one of my client's cars....long story... :D
