    I run the American Car Show at the PVGP in Schelney.' Look me up when you get there - Ron George. What are you bringing to the show? I will have my Sterling Gray '14 GT there since my '66 is still back under construction.

    It is an amazing show - you won't miss it again if you can help it.

    PM me your name and I can look up your registration info.

    Sounds good Ron! I will be bringing my 2015 Mustang GT with me... pic below. I am super excited as this will be my first year attending. I plan on riding down with a few buddies, one with a red S550 mustang and the other in a black Z06 Corvette!

    We did the kick off rallye in my Chevelle. My son and daughter did it in his Monte Carlo SS. They came in 5th. If they had missed 1 less question they would have been 1st. How long does the car show last? Can you leave once you are in. I would like to bring the car Saturday, but I have to be home by 4:30.

    Show cars can arrive between 9:30 and noon or so. You can stay late in the day - or leave at any time. We ask that cars do not leave and return the same day, as that presents a safety hazard because there are so many spectators walking around the show. If you haven't been to the PVGP before I can tell you that once you go you'll come back every year. It is a great event. Last year we had over 3000 cars on the golf course. And the races are a blast to watch. Also - lots of fun to walk thru the pits, check out the cars, and talk to the drivers and owners. Hope you can make it! The $40 donation gets your car in the show both days. No charge for humans. :-). All proceeds go to our charities. If you register online before midnight Thursday you get a $5 discount ($35 donation).

    I like the welds on the SS. I put them on mine also.

    I should clarify. I put draglites on mine. I want the V series and will have a set soon. $2500 for wheels is a tough nut to swallow though.

    Yeah that's sweet. Beginning of the rebirth of the muscle car era right there.

    I liked the PVGP car show today. I really liked Camaro #1. You don't get to see weird stuff like that everyday.

    1958 Buick Estate Wagon - pink - unreal - you never see stuff like that. Best PVGP I have seen - and I have been there since 1993. Our American Show was packed both days - incredible turnout.

    ...like the new Ford GT owned by Henry Ford III. He has put over 3k miles on it already. Doesn't get much cooler than that!
