Hey Bill - that would be kinda interesting to go to. Count me in. Thanks for the heads-up!

I need to get a secretary to keep up with all the cool stuff happening!

Link correction: http://www.petersen.org/

I dig the Peterson Museum, are we going as a group or just meet up there? We might get a little ride out of this too!

I think "EL Diablo" can be up for this...

I'm in.

The Petersen is really cool!
I have taken my classes their as part of my history of California tour.

I tried to buy tickets online for this event, but it looks like they are selling just the regular museum entry tickets online?

Rob, would this be considered a special event or does that regular entry fee include the fiberglass show? We may need to find out here... Maybe even get a club discount and special parking for our tubs if someone knows who to contact?

or should I have said "whom"?

I have contacted the Petersen and hopefully will hear back from them soon.

I have the entrance form for the fiberglass show at the Petersen. If you would like a copy email me at robert_15621@msn.com and I can forward the zip file to you. Please make sure you specify our club (speedsterowners.com) and they will park us together.

Thanks,

Robert

I sent in my registration for the fiberglass show, and I'm in. Who else is confirmed so far?

robert email me the form

I will send mine this weekend...

Rob, just emailed you... Are you going to be part of the show or are we just parking together as a group?

Hey Rob please send me form I sent to wrong address..doh!

Hey David,

Hopefully they will let us all park together at the show. Maybe we could have rendezvous point somewhere near the Petersen and all drive in together? Anyone have an idea of a good place?

Speaking of Fiberglas, I have nothing but the utmost respect for the guys that work with that stuff for a living. I just did a repair of the shower stall in my m/home. What a sticky stringy mess that stuff is to work with!
God! I salute youse guys.

Wild Bill - did you hand-lay it or use a chop-gun? 8-}

I hand layed it...or did my best impression of it. My first experience.
I thought the resin would be more runnier and not the thick goo it was. Oh yeah, I'd like to add gooiest to the adjectives above. This was to repair the damage sustained after Carlisle '09. Next is hanging the generator, wiring and fuel line. Why am I doing all this work? 'Cause I'm a po' guy dammit!(with a little bit of cheap bastard mixed in).
Carlisle is coming a bit too quickly at this point.!

"Hopefully they will let us all park together at the show. Maybe we could have rendezvous point somewhere near the Petersen and all drive in together? Anyone have an idea of a good place? "

Farmer's market Parking lot 3rd and Fairfax? Just North of Wilshire and Fairfax.

I'm not at all familiar with that area, so Bob's idea sounds good to me!

Sounds good to me too, Bob. Farmer's Market it is.

On second thought I believe the parking at the FM is controlled, meaning parking arms, and fees. I was remembering the place as it was in the "good ole days" when parking was free at this unique market. However, there is a shopping center across the street that, I think, is not controlled. That is still on the corner of 3rd & Fairfax.

OK how do I get that form again? please send it to me..

We're in!

Alrighty then..Looks like we have a caravan...

are we parking as part of the exhibit or are we parking outside the event
rob what do we need to sign up if we are part of the exhibit

GERD (yes, I'm yelling at you), there is a an entry form for the car show. I emailed Rob, like he instructed us to do, and he emailed it back to me. What's your email address? I'll forward it to you.

Can somebody give me some help on filling out this form. I know, its a simple form, it should be easy. Keep the wise cracks to yourselves. How do you fill out the car information? My first inclination is to put Vintage Speedsters for the Make, but would that confuse the show organizers? And what about the year? 1999? 1950-something? Or does it even really matter?

Thanks,
Jen

Cabanaboy - yeah!!

Peterson has the powder blue track-nosed-t-bodied roadster with a hood.

Totally drool-worthy :-)...

I'm there................

I am too.. are we gonna ride down together... I am under the impression that we can sign-up day of event too (extra 10.00 bucks) but that still gets you two entry tickets. JIMBO you wanna meet up somewhere and caravan in that would be totally cool... Rob what say you...

Are we still meeting in that parking lot on north 3rd and Fairfax? What time and are we going to caravan down to 3rd as well? Maybe have some breakfast before? you guys know me I wanna eat too!
