I am going to be there this year for sure. I'm going to come down with Mongo and Kustombuilder. I hope one of them already got a room.
I barely got mine, had to go through the backdoor 1-800 route as when I called they said no more rooms, called the 1-800 and got two.

I had to take three whole days of vacation from work but I can't wait. I'll be there with Luckysgal and possibly the tudor.
It will be good to see "all ya'll" again.. Tyler, u are hardcore.. It is getting a bit tight with the crowd and all so we are doing a bit of re-arranging again this year.. we will be /relocating/expanding some of the vendor stuff to the "pits" in back and all the swap stuff will go back there.. that way we can fit more cars up front.. which is what the show is all about Hopefully it will "flow" a little better.
Glenn33 just told me that there are no rooms available in Morris at all!!! If you need a room, the nearest cheap rooms are in Dwight, about 15-20 minutes away. Otherwise, there is Ottawa and Joliet, but you still may want to check around Morris again using your secret sources or something. There will be limited camping in the fairgrounds' parking lot like last year, too. By "limited" I mean - no fires - and they're not really set up as a campground
I'm trying to convince the Blacktop Barons to host a cookout Friday afternoon, but that's it so far. You could always come up to the big city Thursday night
whaaa????and get mugged by hoodlums???? how far out are we from morris to something to do in chitown???mile wise, that is... and wheres the bbq goin to happen if it do?
miles don't matter in Chicago. It's all about the time it takes you to get there. You can be 10 miles away, but it'll take you an hour. Morris is about an 1:15-1:30 from downtown depending on traffic.
What a great show, well worth the 3 hour ride from Indy... Heres my pics from last years.. http://s132.photobucket.com/albums/q27/tierod_bill/Hunnert%20Car%20Pileup/ I'm bringing gloves this year.....and them hand warmer thingies,, to shove in my shorts... Bill j.
Great Itsmy wifes birthday she wants to go What a great birthday gift.Oh mine is in december .Happy Birthday Susan(my wife) got to get the heap going. I can't wait.
I missed the first two and it won't happen again if I'm still breathing. I'll just bunk with Lucky 77 and Luckysgal if I can't find a room, they're such nice people Frank
I am 2 hours from morris but if you want to come up and hang out, and drink my beer your welcome to come up.
