Te 2006 show will offer a Car Corral for those who might want to sell or buy a Firebird. Only cars in the Car Corral will be permitted to display for sale signs. Please reply if you have interest in a Car Corral.
E-mail your questions about the show to tsmith24@earthlink.net. Please put Firebird Show in Subject line.
Here is an idea if anyone has interest. There will be cars coming from VA, MD, NJ and southern NY. Maybe a TA convoy? See the thread here http://www.transamcountry.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21210&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 and here http://www.transamcountry.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21541&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0&sid=c421623993b1ccd246bd584cdc628f61
If you guys want to arrange a start point from your end, I will pass notice in my next monthly newsletter (make sure you send me an e-mail to tsmith24@earthlink.net and ask to get on the list). If you could plan your start time, we could probably figure a few meeting places on the highway (like at rest stops) where you could meet others along the way going to the show. I did that a few years ago heading west and it worked out pretty well. We had 12 Birds roll in together at a show in Syracuse NY.
