Bates Nut Farm Turbo Buick car show 6-4-17

Will be bringing my old 85 turbo hydroboost setup if anyone is interested. Will be on the look out for a power steering reservoir for my 87 swap.

Glad you can finally make it to an event. Here's the deal on selling parts. This show is invite only for vendors. Bates charges us for every vendor we have.
We don't want vendors just showing up and selling stuff.

However! Come see me at the beginning of the show. If you happen to "Forget" to clean out your trunk and opened that trunk a few times to show off that nice spare tire you have...;)
 
Another year without my car... it will be there for damn sure next year..

I talked to Nick about this. We agreed that we needed to just take a picture of this unicorn and display it in a parking spot at the show. :D
 
It's now the day before the show. Just a reminder to bring a chair to sit in. Bates tells me that the trees are now very large and should give lots of shade. It would still be nice to have a couple of EZ ups. I'll be bringing one.

Drive safe everyone. (Especially if your name is Mean Chicken). :chicken:

Fun for me because I drove your car. I'm sure stressful for you having me do it. Haha but yeah family loved it out there and son wants to make a trip to the indoor sky dive tunnel again. Will see you out at Bates tomorrow. If I bring a picture of my GN can I get a shirt hahahaha

Absolutely!
 
hey Lou
you guys wanna hang out at Round Table pizza in foothill Ranch
Saturday night??
I can reserve the party room they have cold beer and wine???/


Hey Ralph,

10:40 Phoenix time, I'm headed out.

I'll be at the Round Table on Portola in Lake Forest tonight whether or not anyone else comes over. I'm staying at the Marriott that shares a parking lot with it. :D Snoozer will be safely locked up in Lou's garage.

Round Table is my favorite franchise pizza place. There aren't any in Phoenix :(. That sucks.

If nothing else, I'll talk to you and then watch you (and the rest of the "mafia") win 96% of the raffle prizes tomorrow!!!!!!;):cool: LOL
 
Got the car gassed and ready to roll

Spoke with Mike earlier and we seem to have most of the "stuff" required to pull this debacle off!

This will be the first year of "single color" "whine free" raffle tickets. :p:p:p We decided that "hot pink" tickets are the luckiest color and we have 8,000 of them...enough for at least three shows. :)

Upon arrival, be sure to stop and get your shirt(limit of one per person) and goody bag, then head over to the :)Command Center and pick up your ZDDP , other samples, and as much literature as your bag can handle.

Mike and I are asking that everyone take only one event t-shirt until the event is well underway and all drivers have been satisfied.

Car and truck are loaded, see y'all in the morning. Drive safe and enjoy the show!

=Eric and Mike

Please excuse the WUFFOs in this section...there are a ton of them here. ;)

Their leader goes by the name of "LOU".o_O
 
Thanks for the replies, guys:).

Turbo Elky, I did have my own room at Lou's, but one of his ewes accused me of something I SWEAR I DIDN'T DO!!!:eek:

JM, for the last time, it's a Cutlass, dammit!

Are there any activities planned for the Saturday before Bates?

See ya there!
That not what she told me , 14 year old's tend to tell the truth, You sir are a scoundrel of the lowest caliber. Drink up all my booze & violate one of the girls then leave.
 
Big thanks to Mike, Eric and everyone who helped put on another great event! It was a blast to meet up with some old friends and make some new ones.
