I've had a memeber make a couple of shift knobs for me. IVOZ06 (Which is where I got the sticker for the window) is helping me install my headers next week. I've been to a few shows and had lunch with some members.

Well said Scott, it is a family...

Is there a staging area for the ride out to St. Armands or does everyone just come out on their own. I watched via the internet last year from North Carolina and if appeared they were rolling in one after another. Early in the morning if memory serves me. If everyone just shows up, I guess I'll be early. It was a great entrance to the Circle last year. Big turn out!!

Well of course...most of you don't have "bumpers'!

I'll be at the show - and I just may be helping you park so be nice!

Yup, bought it from the original owner's widow in May, 1991. Sold new in Lakeland, FL.

Here's what he did with it until about 1963:

And here's what I like to do with it:

Very cool Bill. When I was 17 (1965) I hooked up with a guy in Largo by the name of Allen Rose. He had a blk 57. When he bought it, it had a 283 w 2, 4barrels. Was an awesome car for the time. We would run around St. Pete and Clearwater racing al the muscle cars of that time. Went to Daytona in Feb. of 65 for the races and blew the motor. Came back to Clearwater and bought a built 327, think is was 375 horse. Great car, great times. The 56/57 models bring a lot of memories. Hope to run into you someday soon..........Tom

How 'bout Saturday at the Circle show? After all, that's what this thread is about...)

Oh, I'll be there. Tell me, does the drive stage off the circle and proceed from some point, or does everybody just drive out on their own? This is my first year back in Sarasota in ten years. I haven't done this event before, only watched from NC on the internet. Oh I'll be there...........Tom

My experience has been when the show ends, most folks head out on their own. Some clubs stay together, some go on to a cruise night (they'll be one at Checkers on Univ Pkwy/Honore that night) and some hang around the circle for dinner. I usually head over to the cruise.
