just wonderin who is plannin on goin to the big Sycamore show...they are shootin for 1000 cars, almost got that many last year....lots of HAMBers and HAMB style cars show up, along with other very nice rides. ...hope to see a bunch of you guys there.
I have been to this many times, but the listing in Old Cars Weekly says it starts at 4:00pm? It was always an early AM deal and then we stayed and drank for a few hours.... Do you have a website with details? THX Ebert
I got a flyer for it at Gears and Ears, the 4 PM time is the cruise night. Registration for the regular show runs from 8-noon with awards at 3:30. I don't see a website listed... I'll be there with my Pontiac since it's right up the street from me. Look for the "patriotic" p***enger door! It's Red (old paint), white (bondo), and blue (newer paint)! I ripped off the old patch panel and haven't gotten to fixing it yet...
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? Is this near Marty & Sons Body shop? I love visiting the Didios, maybe this would be perfect for me. Please tell me more dear sirs. Sycamore is lovely this time of year. Sincerely, Cheatercarl
I heading there this year. Sycamore was HOT last year and it actually fills the whole down town area. Didn't we have a HAMB meet and greet last year too? Anyone up for one this year? Oh and you need to get there super early if you want to park on the main drag.
I was workin there today and stopped at Marty and Sons but everyone was at lunch when I got there. Oh well next time. I am plannin on goin down on sunday to the show.
When and where exactly is this show? I've searched online and have found different dates for the 25, 26, and 27.
