    It really doesnt matter what condition they're in. Any Stage 1 is welcome regardless of condition. Bring it! :beer

    Personally, I like em a little ratty. (no offense)

    Absolutely Gary. All iron-headed stage2 GSs and GSXs welcome.

    Does it run/drive? Bring it Mark. All cars have something unique to offer the enthusiast.

    AMEN, brother! :gp:

    While I yet to commit I plan on attending with my Suncoupe. I am plugging away but the money is getting tight. Trying to build a new 36X50 garage this year too.

    Just to clarify...the factory stage1 cars that attend don't need to be pretty - but they do need to be some-what complete.

    This means that we really aren't looking for cars dragged out of a field where they sat for the previous 10 years that are partially stripped, missing engines or body panels.

    If anyone has any additional questions regarding this, please contact me. Thanks!

    Excellent Gary - thanks! Do you want it judged, or are you just 'hanging'?

    I'll update the first post when I get a chance with all the 'definites'.

    Too busy at work :rant:

    Marco,

    Alot of Stage 1s are missing the original engine or transmissions so maybe there can be a big board of stage 1s that dont have the numbers matching engines and their serial numbers?

    It might work and Im willing to try anything to get my car with its original engine.

    :Do No: :Do No:

    Marco, you can count me and DA 71 GSX in, since the Wildcat Challenge is in May @ Beech Bend, and don't have to worry about getting two Buicks to Ohio. :beer

    Does anyone have any insider information regarding Hotels?? Is there a particular hotel you Buick guys are staying at? Did BPG lock in a lot of discounted rooms for this event? What type of turn out from the public can we expect for this event? I am planning on booking my hotel room(s) here in the next month or so and i would like any input you guys have. Thanks in advance!

    If you are a BPG member you may consider watching the BPG site. I think they will announce the Hotels to the members in the next couple months. The host Hotel (Hampton Inn) was very nice last year.
