Heck yea, www.buicks@bates.com

It's just under two months until the biggest Turbo Buick car show, West of the Mississippi.

Bates Nut Farm
15954 Woods Valley Rd.
Valley Center, CA. 92082

http://batesnutfarm.biz/

This event is Freeeee to enter. Everyone who pulls up in a TB, TB powered vehicle or Classic Buick will receive a free event T-shirt, until we run out. People can start cruising in after 9:00 AM. The raffle will begin prompt-ish after lunch. Most people will head home about 2:00-4:00 PM, or when they realize that Ralph won the prize they wanted.:D

Last year was the biggest event yet since Eric and I have been doing this show.
It is our goal to get as may TBs together in one place as possible. Please tell others who own or can steal a Turbo Buick to come out and support this cause.
Note: If you show up with a stolen car, Ret. Dep. John Saleeby will be on hand to help get you off the hook if needed. You may want to bring doughnuts though.;)

Please support our legendary raffle, as this is how we pay to do the event.

We will have TB vendors on hand.
Classic Ind will be in the house and giving out their all new TB catalog.
Nick Micale and the AZ crew will once again be be making the pilgrimage out to our cooler temps.
The Spoolfool boys will be blowing out a few blem bumper fillers for cheap.

Tech talk, Alky pump testing and guru Q and A will be on tap.

Bates has lunch burgers hot dogs and killer brats for sale, or you are welcome to bring your own pick nick stuff.
Sorry, NO BBQs allowed.

Turbo Lou has brought to my attention that the petting zoo is in serious need of a deep cleaning.
Anyone caught taking more than one event T-shirt will quickly be enlisted for this detail. :bored:

Don't forget to bring a chair(s) to sit in.

See everyone there.:)
Please drive safe.

Mike, Eric and Nick

Hahahahhaahahhahahaha. Ya right

My plan was to bring a few "Special" raffle prizes, and my blue Limited to show off next to your excessive, extreme, over-the-top, 9 sec. Regal which we have had here for about 3 years! :)

Your key word "reward" will be the motivation to have it transported, however your "Cadillac Class" enclosed trailer will require an appropriate vehicle to haul your car and a ton or 2 of your spare parts?
 
Once it's done im sure I can work that out.

We will be in contact as my brother is going to go get my trailer next month. he is going to bring his car out from tucson to LA so I'll have the trailer with me next month.. his car will be at bates for sure. Would be awesome to have his mine and yours at the event..

As always, I look forward to this event every year on the drive home from the last.

Mike and I are "shaking the vendor tree" to once again get as much vendor support as possible and provide the next Bates raffle and making it bigger than the last. Please be sure to visit our facebook site http://www.facebook.com/buicksatbates and hit the "Like" button to let all the vendors know that South Western Buick owners are the Bees Knees and we come out in force.

We have more stuff for the kids this year and hope to see everyone at this years event.

Also, we have corrected the audio issue from last year and the raffle announcement will be simmilar to a Memeorex ad. :)

I am looking forward to this. It is a blast every year. I haven't been able to get out to the car to work on it for a while but this event motivates me to have it ready. Got the headliner in, most of the plastics re-dyed. Now I need to pull the seats and console put down some dynamat and replace the carpet. After that put the AC back together because the ride home is usually HOT.

I do have some help though. :)

Hey Spoolfool!
I added the Spoolfool Magnetic Quarter Panel Protectors, the Stock Appearing Radiator Hold Down and the Spoolfool "Flatty" Style Radiator Hold Down to the Spoolfool Productions website. They're on the home page slider and all linked to the "Our Products" page I'll add the video and blog link next chance I get.
