Rick Finamore- show promoter ( or should that be ProMOTOR...LOL)

 

Where in Marlboro will the show be held?? Is this a first time event?? I haven't heard of it before. Any expectations on it's size???

Look forward to having another good local show.

 

Its gonna be at the Best Western right off 495- so easy to get to (which is rare for a show these days)

Its a first time event, but knowing who the promoter is , I can see at least 1000-1500 cars there with EASE. I know Im gonna tell people to attend...

 

forgot to add that it is the same weekend as Louisville if anyone goes there...

 

Hey Lenny,is this one you will make it to?

 

YES.

I may even do our shop booth AND bring the 56 .....

 

Thanks for the info.

I am not familiar with the location. Will the cars be parked in a parking lot or are there gr*** areas to park?? I don't know the promotor, but I certainly know the car!!

 

It sounds like a real nice time,thanks for telling us about it.

 

I beleive its asphalt parking. GIve a call to Rick for more info- hes a super great guy and this will be a not to be moissed event.
Id love to see a HUGE HAMB group there...

 

Dana spoke with Rick yesterday and he is looking for vendors- anyoen out there 'need' to make a trip to a weekend show and expense it from the boss??LOL Seriously, send me your address and we can have Rick send a vendor packet out to you

I had her put the registration form out there too so people can use it and download it:

SHO CAR ***OCATION Rod & Custom Nats Aug1-3

Also - if you are a local club, send me your mailing address and Ill have Rick send out some fliers to you for your cruise nights and goody bags.

 

hey lenny, I've been to the best western for a bunch of racing related events. I dont' remember there being THAT much room in the parking lot??? maybe they've made it bigger in the last 5-7 years?? just down the road from there is a cool race shop. pretty historic place. "boston louie" Seymour's son's run it. guy was car owner for some of sprint car racing's best in the 60's-70's. they called him the man of a million miles.

if you are into VW race motors you may want to call up autocraft engines and talk to mike seymour. He may let you swing by his shop while you are a mile down the road from it.

 

sounds good - ill have rick contact them.

 

I hope there will be a good showing of traditional cars.

 

Hope so too- Its the same weekend as the Milltown show - if you are gonna go to the R&C show- feel free to spread th e word to GET more traditional cars there.

 

Rick says there some good interest really flowing around on this event in the last few weeks.

Anyone thinking about coming to it from out of state?

 

I spoke to Rick at the WoW in Chicago this past weekend and he is also interested in setting up a pinstriper's charity panel jam.Hopefully that can come together.We met for the first time and were talking about mutual acquaintances.

 

that would be amazing- maybe you can help with getting some guys there to do it... If I can help at all- just give a yell

 

I hate to say it,but I will,this is sounding like a good show,and I really hope,that he gets a big turnout of cars and spectators,so keep putting the good word out for him.

 

please do- anything you can do to help a local guy get another great show going on in an area like ours that doesnt have a big show season.
Give Rick a call- he prolly can use your help in getting the word out.Plus- he is such a good guy- really wants to see car stuff continue on a big scale!

 

That could be a problem,Milltown seems to have a good following for trad cars.

 

Hi Ray it was a pleasure meeting such a great and talented guy such as yourself, thanks for getting the warren alessi panel going. it came out fantastic and really cheered him up. thanks again Rick sho car ***ociation.

 

Come on M***hole Hambers,if you got nothing to do that day,please bring some real hotrods to the show,help make it a great show for everyone involved in putting it on,and spread the good word.

 

I hear this show is full of rice burners ???

 

thanks john

 

Your welcome.

 

They are open to attending Al, but with NOPI that day - there will prolly be 3 or 4 at the most- you now how THAT is...
You gonna come up for the show? You should- we live like 30 minutes from there- may just commute each day....


FYI ( FNG) RIXPRO is the guy who is running the show if y'all have any questions.

 

Come on guys,why isnt there much response on this car show,it really does sound like a fun,full event,and I know Ricky,and he will have some of the best cars that he can find for the show,so why not some hamb cars,for the traditionalists,so come on mark your calenders August 1-3,be there.

 

I say go to Milltown, PERIOD. Screw that about asking for the Trad cars to go over there on the other days besides Milltown. That benifits that show and dilutes Milltown.

It's supposed to be trad here....

Why did they pick the same weekend?

That Mustang don't look trad.

Cripes, Southern New England has been getting even more great trad shows latey to top what was already here. Why let Milltown get watered down? Sorry for the rant..... I just like to see some of those trad cars that don't get out much....AND I saw some great ones there.

 

I would post a different picture than that mustang for here.

That killed it for me.

 

sounds like a cool show, I'll be there with my 55 Chev. Don't forget the Summer Nationals in July!
