Great pics, thanks for posting. What I thought neat about the "Grumpy J" display was that Mike took on the Grumpy persona all weekend long.

Nice acting Job.

Unfortunately I had one bad chip in my camera and some of the shots I thought I had were only fragmented images. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/mad.gif Time to upgrade! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif

Hope everyone made it home safely.

Looked like a great event...thanks for the pics for those of us who couldn't make it https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Yeah! Thanks a lot for sharing the pictures. It looked like a great event. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif I'm thinking that I'm going to have to attend the next one. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif Jesse

Alright so all you joke makers out there got a real laugh on my account with that Sopranos picture. Here's some actual proof that I have some connections in this town. Check out the muscle guarding my car. I believe apologies are in order.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Those 2 sausages didn't even give me one of those stupid Tandy Takes or whatever the hell they call them....the guy on the left kept talking about Tomato Pie which we later deciphered to be pizza...he kept mumbling about some joint in Philly with Tomato Pie....Colossomos Bakery or something...he kind of had a limp too..guy on the right was seen panhandling in McCormick Place so he could buy a pair of friggin socks.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

You guys are out of your minds! But believe me the hospitiality was the greatest I ever had and the friendship second to none. Thanks a million to all the Chicago guys and there buddies, especially Darren, Gags (Mr Tomato Pie), Bob, John P. Stefano and company and Mike G. Had a wonderful time and thanks for the great tours! BBBenny and I want you to come east anytime! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...elairSucks.gif

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Thanks for the pics and stories Dennis! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Awesome picture of Sam...were they keeping him awake? LOL https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif


Darren and everyone who displayed...your cars look awesome! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

BTW...Hi Annie! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

And before I forget. I was sitting by my car and Frank comes walking up to me. He says "stick out your hand". I put my hand out and he gives me a keychain from the dealership where my car was sold new. He found it while walking thru the swaps so he bought it for me. I was beside myself. What a cool thing to do. Thanks a million Frank! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

What an event. The Gibb Nova display, with Helen in the mix of things, was the hit of the show. 5 of the neatest cars you will ever see. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Mix in Caleb's and Guairse's racecars, Frankie with the only Yenko there, Frank's dad's late model Camaro, Bernard's COPO, the pair of Zs, and of course the Z-16 display. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

But the best part? Hanging with other sYc members. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

For got to mention that a few celebrities from the club stopped by to chat. Tom Stephani, the old man himself Ken Barnhart, Belair and Rich Gregory.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

I had a great time at the show this year. Was able to spend a lot of time visiting with people like Mrs. Gibb, Tommy K, Annie Hartweg, Mr. Clary, Stefano and finally had some BS time with my man PA Sammy! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

Over all I am very optimistic about the new owners of Vette Fest. I feel that they have some good things in store for the show and they were VERY acomodating to the club.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Frank, thanks for the compliment. Glad you brought your dad! Back East is ALWAYS open to you and your dad with us. How about the York Show?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Did they still have hair pieces and "other" trinkits for sale at the show?...

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Swap was good...not much in the way of beanie babies...these guys are going to kick it up a notch...Al & Co. have been doing it for 25 years...they wouldn't let their baby go to anything other than a top notch outfit...

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Thanks for the pictures also. This was my first time to Vette Fest and I sure was taken back by the display of so many many beautiful cars. And also thanks to Rick for the heads up as to the show and also Mr Cumby for the pictures. I took a few but sure dont look like the ones he did.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

It was great to see everyone and thanks for sharing your awesome cars and stories!

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Phil, (and anyone else)

Please post your pictures. My camera failed to record some of the shots I thought I had, and I feel bad that the shots of Sam's, Benny's and a couple of other cars were on that card. Even had some more shots of members chatting, but they're bad too.
ANYONE? Please, let's give these guys the credit they deserve for coming as far as they did to support VF and the sYc! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif As long as BelAir isn't in them, they'll be fine! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Thanks in advance.

Dennis

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Frank did something like that for me. He knew we purchased a 1972 442 new from Nortel Olds and he sent me the dealer plate that they screw on their cars. Ours had the same type on our car. It is screwed to the wall of my garage, thanks again, Frank. What a great group.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Oh great. Now you've done it! First Darren and now you.

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

No problem guys. I also gave Tommy K a Courtesy Chevrolet key chain but is was from MO. and not Cali where his car came from. It was also a little newer but still cool to have.

Cumby, I found a Fred Gibb emblem but decided NOT to give it to you! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Fall Vettefest 2005
 

Had a great time at Vette Fest, Been there many times but never with my car, so this was my first. I know my car is not technically a Super Car, so I appreciate SYC for allowing me to be part of the Showcase. I was a Minnow swimming with the Sharks. Seems like the New Promoters as well as the old ones treat you really well and they want you to come back, at least that is the way I felt. It was great to meet most all of you that I didn't know and seeing all of you that I do know. I'm looking forward to the next time, if my wife lets me!!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Sam,
Although you're always welcome, I doubt if you and Benny would want to travel all the way to 'AL BEE UH', Iowa just for some sausage! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif Besides; it could be made from one of Howie's former 'love interests'! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
