I had a good time but I had camera issues and didn't get any pictures. I met Don and his sons Don and Dan, Hotroddaddy, and J Robinson. The weather was great all weekend but like Don said, right after I pulled out of Daytona, the wind and rain got rough in places. I had a great time and also bought a buch of stuff that I didn't really need.....well except for the breather cap. I actually needed that.
Come on Bill, show em your new shift knob. :):)

Weather was perfect - until Sunday. The Cruise at the Bel Are Plaza was nuts on Friday night, never made it there on Saturday. Lots of nice Rods, my favorite was a rare Nash coupe (pic attached). Great lines in the fenders & grille. I'd really like to see it finished.
What was very strange was the way the Daytona Police stormed the plaza at about 11 oclock and ran everyone off. There must have been a dozen motorcycles and cars, and they kept telling people if they didn't leave they would be "arrested for trespassing." Daytona and the plaza in particular seem to want it both ways...........they want the revenue from these events, but not the inconvenience they bring. "Leave your money, but stay off of our streets.":confused:
Funny thing was, the cops were very cool on Thursday and Friday, but that all changed Saturday night. They even had the entrance to the plaza coned off so you couldn't get in without going in the back way. I wish Daytona would make up it's mind.

Hello All,
Had a fantastic time in Daytona and my T finally made it somewhere (not without some charging and brakelight issues of course) all minor problems too be sure. The one thing that I loved being there was seeing the CHR people and how friendly they all are. You all make everyone feel very welcome and for that I thank you. Bill your whole family is made up of quality people and Bill is only one quality example of people I met and talked to who represent our sport. The cars are one thing, but the people are another. You all are fantastic people and thank you for a great weekend. Don Jr.
OK......I know there have been picture posting problems but come on men, give us some pics......:LOL::(:LOL::(:LOL:
I hope Don has some to post, I only took 4 the whole time and I inadvertently wiped those out when downloading them into my computer. :o I was so busy enjoying the event that I didn't stop to take any to speak of. Even Gastrick, who is usually Mr Camera didn't take any, I think.
I could "borrow" some from another forum, but I do that way too often as it is.

Here are a few pics off of my phone. (pops diving on the way up and a view from behind the windshield, "skratch" pinstriping my T, etc.) Cant say enough nice things about "Skratch" just a great guy to be sure. I guess being famous does not change some people! Like Pops said we have more on our cameras. Will Post them ASAP. Don Jr.:whacked:
Don Jr. the Blue T sparkles, do you have any after shots of the pin stripping? And Don Sr. some after shots of the P3K please.
I was there Fri and Sat, the only "freindly" I saw was John, AKA Hotroddaddy. Tried to meet Don and the crowd at the HAMB area and even did a drive by but couldn't find him. Oh well, I try for Billetproof.
p.s. I didn't even tear anything up this time!
Some more pics off the phone. Problem with my Camera storage card so our pics may be limited. (Skratch striping project 3K, my car with a nice duece in the HAMB area, etc.) :p Joliet, Sorry We missed you. Make sure to instant message us before Billet proof so I can get a cell # to you. Stovens thanks for the compliment. I am going to take some detailed shots of the striping and post them this weekend. Awesome job for sure. I will get some shots of dads too. Don Jr.:toocool:
Don JR- looks great from what I can see in the photos!
Holy Cow Jr., ........that phone takes some nice pics... :3dSMILE:
