BilletProof Detroit is Almost Here! HAMB Meet & Greet Info

A local guy in Dearborn owns it now. Still has the trophies and stuff in the back the last time I saw it at his place.

 

flatoutflyin,
you're right about Kellogg Avenue. It sat behind a fence with a '40 coupe and a Rivera for a few years with a rotweiller standing guard over it. It then bounced around Cincinnati for a few years before disappearing again. There is a thread here somewhere about a guy who seen it in front of a scary mobile home down in Kentucky. I was glad to see it at Detroit a couple years ago, but also sad to see the state it has been allowed to degrade to. Hopefully the new owner will restore it to it's formal glory. It doesn't meet everyone's taste, but it is probably one of the few remaining full customs from the Cincinnati area.

Back to the thread topic, I'll be there in my '60 or my back up 'rent a rod' '40 coupe.

 

I'd like to go, but cocktail hour starts early at the campground!

 

If you'd like I'll introduce you to him at BilletProof and you guys can talk about the car and his future plans for it.

 

I'm planning on making it with my 50.

 

<---New girl!

I have to go to this. Working out how I'll get there (debateable in my gas hog of a car, trying to swing some tag-alongs to throw money into my tank!)

Anyone know what places are good to stay at for the night? Where everything goes on Friday night? Whatever information anybody has, feel free to PM me.

I've been excited about going to this show since I first heard about it a couple months ago. (Gotta love how the universe throws things at you to mess with your finances when you are making plans!!!)

 

No "pie" promises Denise. You may even get em before B'proof. That is, if I can "lure" you over to the shop with em. I mean I know this place is a long drive for ya and all but...

 

See ya there!

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
As soon as it warms up I'll drive Big Olds to work and stop by on my way home.

 

Okay... so there will be at least 2 tag alongs in my car, which cuts down on expenses a lot! (Especially as I have every intention of drinking to the point of sillines on Friday night!)

 

Looks like there's going to be some nice weather for both Friday (68 degrees) and Saturday (70 degrees).

 

Boy you sure are a trusting soul to believe a Michigan forcast for more than a day or 2..

although , thats good...we need to push the good vibes..

 

Have fun guys an' gals!! Enjoy the show!...

 

I live 5 minutes away. I'm going to push the Ford if need be. Also if someone needs a place to crash or stop for a quick fix on the way I'll be around.

 

I hope the park isn't flooded after this shit ass weather

 

Does anyone know the the offical hours .Can you show up friday night to set up?If so how late? We're gonna be there with there cars maybe four cars. Thanks.

 

i want to go. i work till 5 on saturday. when does it end?

 

I won't hold my breath....after all if Ikea has a sale of something that day........

 

Hahaha, you know me all to well. I think I'm good though. I have one of everything they sell!

 

Hell, Sunny Elliot AIN'T that optimistic!!!

 

Got ya covered, Denise.

and the forecast has only gotten better.....low 70's and sunshine for both days now!

 

Has anyone checked out the venue? Is it under water? lots of rain and more forecasted this week means it could be a swamp. Was planning on making it out there early and hitting Milan after

 

Cool. The only weekend I'll ever be in Detroit in my lifetime looks like a good one.

 

Will be nice to finally meet them.

What may I asks brings you to the Motor City that weekend?? You must save time to visit The Henry Ford in Dearborn.

 

I'll be sportin my bling....

 

I've got technical training in Plymouth with a weekend layover. Now that I found something cool to do saturday the Ford thing can be sunday. My ride will be a midsize Hertz and is there anything else considered a must see?
