If your around the chicagoland area (i know theres lots of you) make it out to Plainfield on sunday for midwest hotrods open house. Check out the shop, show your car, see others and use it as an excuse to kick off the summer if you haven't already. its always been a good turn out. Weather is looking good so far. Take 55 south to route 126 a few miles down on the southside of the street. www.midwesthotrods.com
I am in Chicago for a couple of days per week most weeks during the week - not the weekend! Visited out there a few weeks ago - cool and recommended place with friendly people, well at least the one guy I talked to was. A bunch of cool schtuff there! Too bad I can't go this weekend.
