rachael anne graemlins/waving.gif Ummm, both? And hugs too? See 'yall there! graemlins/thumbsup.gif

OK--here's a new question---off all the people going---who is bringing their cars??? Who's driving and who's towing??? I havent made my mind up yet which to do--If I tow I can take my truck--- if I go "downtown" and not worry about someone opening a door into it. On the other hand what could be cooler than a buch of chevelles running down the interstate---decisions--decisions

I'm a towing mine, too far for me with no A/C...yeah I'm a wuss and proud of it. :D
What kind of cookies Gregg and the hugs?
YOU GOT IT! graemlins/hurray.gif
rachie graemlins/waving.gif

I'm driving mine... no radio, no A/C, black interior and 13mpg, possibly driving alone... Might be a long 838.38 miles :eek: I'll either be pulling an all-nighter driving down, or taking the whole week off to cruise down with the Hot Rod Power Tour.

I'm trailering...two reasons...

First, just in case I tear something up drag racing on Thursday night.
Second, at 4 mpg on premimum gas, driving the Chevelle 225 miles would really get pricey.
Not that the 11 mpg Dodge is too much better. :(

hey Sweetshot---peanut butter cookies and BIG hugs!!!!! graemlins/waving.gif

Trailering also,,,June,,85 degrees,,850 miles with 410s aint gunna work,,, nicer inside truck with air and tunes on

which ever way I decide-----Im going !!! just got a room at best western--said they were selling out fast

I'll tow my Chevelle for the simple fact that after about 2 hours of driving with a 502 & Flowmaster 40-series mufflers, I'd be ready to commit suicide! It's hardly a "trailer queen", I just feel like that much wear & tear isn't necessary since I've got the truck and trailer to avoid it.

Man, is CB05 really another 5 months away? Crap!

Well I am going to trailer the 67 Elky and lead the way for BobFMTyler since he would have trouble finding Goodlettsville in the daylight :D

And Sweetshot, both Cookies and Brownies would be fine, neither one is not on my South Beach Diet but what fun is that all the time graemlins/beers.gif

See y'all there graemlins/hurray.gif

Towing mine though that is the only time of the year it gets towed. Drove it there 3 years. 3.73's and 14" tires ain't no picnic on I 65.

Iam also trailering my 67 up.It just works out better, and keeps the miles off of it. If I go out of state its always trailered.Yes I get ragged from my friends, but it works for me.

I haven't decided yet if I'm going to take the car.. If I do, it will be on the trailer... The first thing that I have to do is get off my a** and join ACES though..

Scott

Driving, 70 conv, 3.07 12bolt posi (good hiway gear), air (cold!).

CHOCOLATE CHIP, CHOCOLATE CHIP and CHOCOLATE CHIP, OH ya, browinies and hugs.

I'm torn...June, 85 Degrees, Tenessee Humidity, gas prices, 4:10 gears, 2,000 miles round trip....what should I do.

I guess I'll Drive graemlins/hurray.gif

See y'all there graemlins/hurray.gif I'm surprised the old guy can even remember there is a June let alone the directions to Goodlettsville. I'm gonna follow him up just to see where he goes. graemlins/waving.gif

I dont know who leads,, but yall always seem to make it, try not to leave Billy in the dust this time,, :D

Towing mine. Bought the short bus just for CB, hate to leave it home.

Man, there should be an award just for that!

Us New Jersey guys are working on a plan to bring all 6 of our Chevelle's down in one tractor/trailer, rather than each of us pulling a single car trailer. One of the guys drives for a large show car carrier and it looks like we might be able to pull this off.

You 'Da Man Bill :cool:

Just make sure you burn up all that old gas you left in the tank after last years CB ;)

Bill,, they settin up a wet bar in the back a that hauler for you all for the trip :D

I am going too bring my 70 LS-6 4 speed 4.10 Elcamino on the back of my Rollback.
MIKE BOND

I'm going to tow the 64 there and probably drive it home and have my brother drive the tow rig behind. see yall at the best western

Uh, driving of course. That's the whole point isn't it? :D

Keith, you've got more guts than most here, I don't think I know anyone else who would drive a 14k mile L78 camino across the country graemlins/thumbsup.gif

I'm still undecided whether I'll "Power Tour" down or drive out later in the week.

I'll be towing my Chevelle to TN, but I will be driving the Chevelle to CB05. The reason it's being towed to TN...I'm being stationed in 29 Palms CA. :( :mad: graemlins/angry.gif I have a friend in Brentwood and I plan on stopping by to see him and his family; and see my TC friends while i'm at it. smile.gif
I won't be able to attend any other CB until my tour is over in California. I'll be leaving for Iraq in August, for a 7 month tour. Then returning "home" for 7 months, then a 7 month tour in Afghanistan. I'm already making plans to move back to the East Coast and I haven't even left yet.

Well, I missed last year, so this will be my first. I'm gonna be there with the wife somehow, someway. Better book the room tho' today!

Hmmm... All the way to Nashville? That's 2 & 1/2 WHOLE HOURS driving! Right now I got no A/C but if it's not raining I can get out the sun block (note to self: do NOT forget hat) and put the top down. If we leave at 6AM it's a moot point, and we'll get there for breakfast.

It's hard to think about that TN heat and humidity when I spent Sunday night in a parking lot changing the fuel pump in 19-degree breezes.

If any other East TN or NC or other Easterners planning on going Knoxville to Nashville want to meet up for a mini-parade down I40, let me know.

wish i could go. to bad my velle aint to impressive looking, or running. plus it isnt the most reliable thing right now. also im still in school :( i will be def going one of these years. and will be driving it down, dont own a trailer, and dont plan on it. hehe.

good luck ya'll. cant wait to see pics, and vids.

Since I am a newer guest of this site I have a stupid question. Is the show in the same city every year or does it move around the country?

It's in the same place every year, it's all explained on the ACES website.

I just had a change of plans. I was going to start Power Tour in Wisconsin, but I just found out today that Dukesfest 2005 will be June 4-5 at Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, TN so I plan on stopping there first then on to CB05.

I plan on going will leave car home this year will be driving down with Wife and daughter.
Mike

Well, the car isn't being finished in time for the party this year but we plan on heavily touring our 70 in '06 so well see you all next year. We are going to drive it out from Las Vegas, Nv. Fuelie 462 backed to a 4l60E spinnig a posi 3.23's won't be too bad. I don't know if Tenn is ready for us yet ;) smile.gif

Well Im still going to try to have my chevelle drivable If I can get my frame,and suspension parts powder coated and the body work done I just might be able to bring my 69 this time. If I do it will be in primer but what the heck atleast the frame and engine compartment will be nice. smile.gif

Well, wife and I were hoping to go again this year. But, it looks like we won't be able to. :(
I still havent posted my pictures from last year.

Dave Bummer Dave. I'll miss the free beers. :D Oh, and the company too. ;)

Is that where all my beer went? ;)

I'll miss seeing you guys too.
That was a good time.

I have a nice pic of you "flexing" over your car.
And a nice pic of Gene's tri-power.

I gotta post those before my hard drive crashes.

I'm a first timer, are there any project Chevelles there. I don't want to be the only guy with a primed Chevelle. I plan on becoming a member soon.

Everything from mild to wild, beginning and done and all areas in between. Hell, i've gone twice with no car at all and rolled my rental in from the airport.

Its a good time all around.

I 360'd that sucker in moss wright on wet pavement the first day we got there. E-braked her at about 40 MPH.

Hey, I paid for the insurance, im just getting my moneys worth.

Sorry 'bout that headgasket, Dollar. :D

Just got our room reservations at the Red Roof for the event. Kathy and I are looking forward to seeing everyone again.
We're driving the car this time.

Hey Clint,
Are you coming up through OKC?
If so when? We're going to have people stopping at our house from Calif. Plan to leave the OKC area Tue am and proceed to the east side of Little Rock, where a group from Tex will join with us. Then on to CB05 Wed am. You interested in joining us out of OKC on Tue? We would sure love to have you join us.

Clint,
As of now, there is a fair amount of agreement for everyone to make the final rendezvous (east bound caravan on I-40, that is) and leave the McDonalds in Lonoke Ark (just east of Little Rock) about 10-10:30am Wed and proceed to CB05.
We will probably spend the night at the Super 8 Tue nite next door to the McDs.

At the moment,my Elky doesn't have a/c. My disabled spouse can't handle heat very well so the plan right now is to leave real early Wednesday morning and drive straight through,Tom. Maybe we can plan to rendezvous with you at Lonoke.

I'm looking at various custom a/c set-ups now so hopefully,the car can have it by June.

Clint,
We'll be leaving the McDonalds in Lonoke probably 10-10:30 Wed am.

If you are Going to CB05 or not please check in and post emergency contact info, help out a possible TC'er in need.

Many think this isn't that important but take it from me, it really stinks to be stranded in your Chevelle on the side of a highway 800 miles from home.

Rach,
That's a bummer, I was granted my leave and am ready to roll to Tennessee. Sorry you can't make it, I'm sure we will meet up somewhere when I get back from Iraq.

I guess I'll see everyone else there. Take care

I know Wally, I am sorry. :(
Emailed you and hadn't heard back, but had hoped you were in transit. Check the others, bet you can meet up with some of them on the drive to TN! Have a great time, I will be here thinkin of ya'll. :D
AND WAIT TILL YOU SEE TOMMY ROBERT'S NEW RIDE!
WHOOHOO is she purty! :thumbsup:
rachael anne :waving:

Rach,
Sorry I didn't get back with you sooner, I've been really busy. I didn't register in time and can't bring the Chevelle to the 'bration after all. I didn't want to register and take up someones spot that could actually make it, until I found out if I could get leave. Mrs. Hanson called me and told me that registration was over, and that I didn't have to worry about taking someones "spot" there are no set limits on cars, it's just I registered to late...oh well maybe i'll take the Yellow beast next year...GOD WILLING.

Hope your knees feel better, my ankle is still a little sore, stiff and swollen, but I'm going to limp my way around CB 05 though. Take care
