Car show 9/19 at my wifes work

[justbob]

Thanks for showing up last year guys, it meant alot to the residents at the Dupage county Convalecent center. Our job is simple, to attrack attention to get people to come in and buy from the small flee market the residents put on and also their bake sale and such. All proceeds made during the day goes right back into the recreation fund for the residents that Melanie cares for on a daily basis. It raises money for in house activities along with going out to plays, baseball games, ect. ect. It's their biggest fundraiser for the year.

Entry is free, and they also provide free water. This is a very small time show, perhaps 60? cars in all, but that is good considering there isn't much parking anyway. Last year we managed to create our own parking near the fence with our cars parked in a different direction as all others demanding attention to our beautifull Mercs! We can also leave our cars there, pile into Mels mommyvan and head to my house for grilling??? (about a 1/2 mile away). UncleLar, this may be a great place for a for sale sign. Maybe our inside connection (no names, you know who you are) will let me do another burnout in the Sheriffs parking lot like last year, THANKS AGAIN!!!

Let me know who is coming, I plan on being at the McDonalds at County Farm RD & RT 38 (Roosevelt rd) in Wheaton at 8am and leaving at 8:30 sharp (that means you Drew & Dom LOL)to get our spot secured.

Anyways hope to see the Windy City Crew.


Time: Leave Mcdonalds at 8:30, arrive at show at 8:31 (check in time) show is from 9 - 2.

Place: 400 N. County Farm RD, Wheaton IL.

Work has put a damper on most of the events this year. I'm hoping to attend with my girls ;)

[TAKEDOWN]

I should be there JustBob!!!!

[justbob]

No excuses Drew AKA Mister Busyman. LOL

[UncleLar]

Hey Bob,that was the last cruise night of the year in Lombard tonight.No wonder everybody was there so early.
That silver Mustang you didn't like with the body kit,he got froggy on St.Chas.Rd. right before I left and the cops lit out after him,when I went by on Main St. they were giving him some souvineer pieces of paper to remember them by.
I left about 9:30 and had a good time.A lot of people asked about the MM,maybe I'll get some good hits on it.(though I STILL really don't want to sell it)
Ya think maybe Drew's embarassed to show up when there's a pretty DTR gonna be there?lol.

[justbob]

Last night of Lombard huh? No wonder it was so busy. You stuck around till 9:30? Holy crap! Anyone else get squirly?

[UncleLar]

Nah,just the 'Stang and he basically just sped down St.Charles.
Every body seems to behave themselves pretty well,hell,who would want to be the one that got Cruise Night permanently shut down,they tolerate very loud exhaust,a lot of engine revving and some vehicles that are obviously not quite street legal.
I still can't remember what manufacturer made the front wheels on that Hemi 5 Window Coupe,those were real old time racing wheels though.

[TAKEDOWN]

You got that right UncleLar! Merideath has a scar on her right cheek and she is very self conscious.

[TAKEDOWN]

Bob... Are we still doing this?

[UncleLar]

I'll be there.

[justbob]

Yup..........

[guspech750]

sorry bob. i will not be there. i have been sick all week and i am on three different antibiotics. aaaaa. life is good. wish i could but i am still sicky-poo and the marauder is not fit for a show right now. last few weeks it was fit for a show but i am not fit for a show.

[UncleLar]

Any car washes open by 8AM close by there Bob? Mine has been sitting out all week and I didn't get off work and home in time to run it through a wash tonight.

[justbob]

Which way you commin?

[Bradley G]

We under the most recent employment development, looking into a early wake up for tomorrow.
Though, The no burnout thing has me a little discouraged.
And the jailer won't be there to insulate us from the PO PO!:D

[justbob]

Cool Brad! or not cool? See you there.

Sorry to hear you can't make it Joe.

[UncleLar]

Coming down County Farm from North Ave.
Kennedy to I 294 S. to I 290 W. to 355,get off at Army Trail and then Glen Ellyn Rd. S. to North Ave. Modifiable though.

There is a handfull of gas station washes between 355 and county farm on rt 38 plus one nice regular car wash on the south side of the road. Or if you run 88 to Winfield rd. there is a decent touchless at the bp at Winfield rd and Warrenville rd. Hope this helps.

In that case take 355 to rt. 38 and head west. The regular one should be open or hit one of the gas stations.

[Bradley G]

It's all good~ leaving as soon as I can get her washed.:):)
Cool Brad! or not cool? See you there.

[TAKEDOWN]

Thanks for the heads up on a very nice event Bob.
