Autopian f-body owners...show info

[1 Clean WS6]

Hello to all my fellow f-body buffing friends!!

http://www.fbodygathering.com

If you can make this event I HIGHLY suggest you do so. This will be my 5th time attending and it has grown by leaps and bounds every year. Plan on 200-250 f-bod's of every generation (though the 4th gen's are always the majority) in attendance. It's a great 3 day weekend with lots of fun events, a huge car show and non-stop parking lot fun. The Gathering has absolutely ZERO racing involved and is more a vacation/party than anything else. If you can make it please do so...I guarantee you'll come back.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Mike

all of the f-body guys i know care more about going fast in a gutted out tin can that having a show car. they dont understand that you can have both.

sounds like fun...

I agree with Brian- most owners don't care about looks. I did both and always got weird looks .

You'd be suprised how many f-body owner's are into the show n' go thing. Not all of us are nitrous sniffing mullet men.

The car show is actually the focal point for the Gathering. No racing...no "mine is bigger than yours"...just a relaxed vacation type atmosphere for 3 days. Folks just hang out, have fun and talk about how mad they are at GM for killing our cars.

It's an event like no other in the f-body community.

If I still had my car, I would attend. At first, I was all show 'n go, then I got the bug in me that was all go, then I went back to show, then I sold the car because I was sick of the mods I put in it.

Now I am just cruising with a Colorado and am happy again. I have a bike to settle my go fast needs and truck to get work done. I do miss my car though, but I don't regret selling it.

Hey! I resent that remark about the tin can.

I've got an 02 SS and I'm already registered and reserved, paid...and stocking up on beer for that weekend.

I just got done pulling my entire interior and putting down dynamat, vaccuming all the nooks and crannies and then wiping everything down to make sure I got every bit of dirt.

Already polished the GMMG exhaust, detailed the engine bay, sprayed the rubberized undercoating, followed by a gloss black paint for shine on the undercarrage, detailed the wheel wells, cleaned the inside and outside of all wheels, detailed and touched up the differential and about to do a full Hotchkis Suspension package...and I've still got a bunch to do!

A Gathering veteran I see?!?!?!

I'll have my rig set up in the far end of the vendor lot detailing f-bod's from Thursday on. Lola will be in the lot directly above the vendor area. Stop by and say hello when you get a chance.

Man I've been wrong about you F-Body guys all along You forgot the wife beater, a pack of reds and a pair of old school Miami Vice Oakleys ! Just messing gotta keep that Ford vs Chevy(GM) rivalry alive

Thanks Paul...I try!!!

true blue blood I'd be remiss if I said I never wore a wife beater or smoked a pack of cowboy killers. Honestly...there is no more GM vs. Ford rivalry anymore. '98-02 the 4th gen's ruled the roost...then the '03-'04 Cobra's settled the score big time. Now...there is nothing but a 450hp Cobra to beat up on rebaged LS2 powered Holden Monaro's (an incredible car by the way...just not a GTO). GM has dropped the ball in the pony car market segment and it shows in the mass exodus of new owners from their ranks.

I miss the pony car wars...hopefully some day they will return. Until then the Stang guys will have their plates full with big boosted STi's and Evo's.

Hear Hear!!!

Its more important to look good getting there than how fast you can get there.

But....................a little go won't hurt the ride either

Take a lot of pics. Wish I could make it.
