Happy to announce that for the first time ever we will have trophies at our show:





We're also in the process of setting up the concession stand vendor right now so there should be a good assortment of food available to be purchased at the event.

 

Attendance is growing bigger and bigger! I got most of what i needed to get done to the car already... just some minor stuff and ill be back to 100%. Should be a sweet day for fbodys, i hope nothing comes up and i cant make it.

 

Less than two months away! Can't believe that I'm posting this while the weather channel is saying we're going to get 4-6 inches of snow tonight into tomorrow.

just an FYI it is between an hour to an hour and a half north of detroit so calculate from there your drive time.

 

Hello,

With only 45 days, 14 hours, and 45 minutes before the big event, we have made a huge change to the 2009 Meet & Greet venue.

Instead of holding our event at Kensington Metro Park, we will be holding the event at Bakers of Milford in Milford, Michigan.

This event is essentially *next door* to Kensington park, so the location change should be a very minimal inconvenience.

The new address for this year's Meet & Greet is 2025 S. Milford Rd, Milford, Michigan. Please mapquest accordingly.

For those that planned to take I-96 to Kensington, you will be able to take your route as planned but exit the freeway at exit 155 - Milford Rd - north. Once you exit the freeway and head north on Milford Rd, you will go 2.5 miles and Bakers of Milford will be on your right. I will do my best to deploy signs where possible.

Our official flier has been updated accordingly and can be viewed here: http://www.mifbody.com/MeetGreet2009.png

The official Information thread has been updated accordingly:

Hey guys,

A bit of an update here - we have met with Bakers and have a lot of plans worked out that I wanted to share. I'm also very excited to mention that Scott Settlemire, Al Oppenheiser, John Fitzpatrick, and Cheryl Pilcher all have the Meet & Greet marked down in their calendars and look forward to attending again this year.

If anyone has not heard of Bakers of Milford (especially those from out of state) - Bakers of Milford is a Metro Detroit icon for cruise-ins. Not only is their restaurant one of the best arround but every Sunday during the cruising season they host a *FREE* cruise-in with door prizes, giveaways, raffles, and it's not uncommon for them to have upwards of a thousand cars at the show.

First off, here is our parking arrangements for the day of the Meet & Greet. Please make sure that we all try to respect Baker's parking lot and surrounding area as much as possible.


Secondly, here is a list of all the options for food the day of the Meet & Greet:
Last but certainly not least - with exactly one month to go we have hit the 200 registrations mark!

For those of you who might be coming from out of state or just are not familiar with Bakers of Milford, below is a link to photos from today - May 3rd. Keep in mind - what you see in the pictures happens EVERY SUNDAY. 100% free. This car scene/heritage is EXACTLY what we wanted for our Meet & Greet.

car is back up and running and i have the day off! so ill be comming down with the rest of the baycity crew!! still trying to convince my dad to bring his cars down!

 

Sweet! I just hope my car will be finished in time... still waiting to hear back from the machine shop on the bore.

 

We have over 220 registrations received so far! Quick shoutout to Chris - received your registration, thank you sir!

Only 16 more days until the big day! Our Best of Show, Best Camaro, Best Firebird, and Best Domestic (Non-FBody), and Longest Hauler Award trophies all arrived this week and they look GREAT! We've also received goody items from Meguiars, and Hagerty with a few other vendors sending some items. Looks like those that get there early will get a nice goody bag.

 

can i call dibs on one you know you love me brian

 

We'll see - everyone hates me right now - just got home from Game 7!

 

I'm going to try & make it. I have a few other friends who want to go also.

 

Awesome! If you don't mind, please register for the show and have your friends register too. I'll be printing out windshield slips and have everything ready for those who register ahead of time. Makes it a lot easier than having you fill out the registration form in the parking lot when you get there the day of the show. If you can have your friends fill it out or register them too, that'd be awesome! http://www.mifbody.com/meetgreet/registration

 

Major thanks to Scott for sending this e-mail message out to his Camaro and Firebird mailing list. We've received about 230 registrations this year already! AccuWeather is predicting SUNSHINE AND WARM with a high of 80 degrees on May 30th!
