Nice going Brian! I'm sure the judges in Florida are just as nit pickey as they are in Arizona. Out of curiosity, how many cars were in the class and were any of them G-Bodys?

Again, nice going. ... :D

at super chevy the conversion class is 'show wide', all classes - monte carlo, camaro, chevelle, etc. I don't know how many there were, but at a show like this, it's more than a few. taking a car from chevy 6cly to chevy 8 cyl or replacing a 327 with a 350 or even a big block is not considered a conversion - unless one changed the chevy V8 to something like a big block buick V8 (there were at least 2 like that, one was a small block chevy V8 converted to a big block 455 buick V8 in an el camino)

Thanks again Ed for documenting a fun weekend!! :D :D Always a good time hangin with the El Camino Central guys, maybe next year won't be so hot. 8)

The next event I have decided to do is Hot Rod Power Tour with the wagon this summer. Tour starts in Charlotte, NC on June 7 and ends in Wisconsin Dells, WI on June 14. I am planning on doing the whole tour (about 1500 miles) with my wife and 5 year old son. Including getting to the first venue and a mini trip to Minnesota to see my wifes family afterwards and then home will be about 4800 miles in 2 1/2 weeks :shock:

Look forward to hopefully seeing some of you guys at the stops along the way...
