Oops, I knew I forgot to do something. Here's the website http://www.freewebs.com/wheelsday/
I _might_ be there. I can't commit because I don't know where I'll be living heh.
I think last year was the first I'd missed in a few years. =/

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Hit it.

If (and it's a big if) I'm not busy I'll pop down in the Sprint.

Sadly that weekend gives me a four day window of opportunity to work on my new offices.

I'll be coming in my Toledo, not too far from me and seems lots of other interesting cars at this show.

I'll be going anyway as I'm a member of my local hot rod club but I'll be in my Sprint

I'm usually there but depends on the weather - forecast ain't so hot. Be there in the BMW anyway :)

Oh and for those that haven't been before, it's on a grassy field that can get a bit boggy from what I remember. Weather forecast looks to be heavy rain too.

I spotted Merlins black Sprint, a bright green Toledo on sprint rims, a yellow Sprint with black bonnet and a mimosa 1850 on sprint rims that was for sale £850.
Not a bad show really. Weather was as usual p155 poor, but never mind.
I did have to laugh when the women asked do you want public parking or show? It's a Hyundai love hardly exotic.
My personal highlight, a friend of mine that arrived in a Ford Capri taking the p155 about me owning a Triumph, shortly before his car wet itself. Sweet sweet karma.
