Re: Third Gen Fest '15???

Keep us posted when where details etc as it all gets finalized. I've been wanting to go to a TGfest for years now and I just told my wife the other day to get ready this year. Although my car isn't finished yet (maybe it'll never be "finished" lol) I should be ok to make the trip. I'm sure she'll love traveling for days in the old car. Funny, she said it was her "dream" car back in high school but never really wants to go for a ride- hmmm.

Re: Third Gen Fest '15???

Interesting. I still would like to see Denny make a post confirming something. Either way, I'll have a hard time deciding between the events. Maybe to TGF Saturday, and TGE Sunday?

Re: Third Gen Fest '15???

If it was a different day maybe. But i suppose months in advance isn't easy to change the date.

Don't be a sore loser at thirdgen expo zero13!

Sorry man . None of us have anything against it, but Perry's insurance company sure does, so we're respecting that as best we can. Heidt's and Ledfoot magazine will be there, We've got some cool UMI stuff to give away and I'm working on other vendors to donate stuff as well. Hopefully that eases the pain a little.

The date is non-negotiable at this point. 2016 is still up in the air though....
