MCACN 2010 Updates and Happenings

[bashton]

It is hard to believe that a month has passed since the inaugural Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals!

With that being said, we are off and running making plans for the 2010 edition of the MCACN show, which will take place November 20-21, 2010, and I want to start getting the word out.

We need your help in spreading the word, as the show is very expensive to produce, and we need lots of spectators to make it work. We feel we have set the standard with a show that offers a great (and safe) location, excellent access, protection from the elements and much more. We are dedicated to what we all love, that being Muscle Cars, dealer-built Supercars and all things related to them. We feel we are unique in this aspect and will remain true to this theme, even more now then ever.

We have a fantastic Judging team, with many of the country's most respected experts in their fields for the various makes and models coming in from various states to be a part of our team.

Here are some of the special displays we have in the works;

1970 Invitational Display; as we all know, '70 was a pinnacle year for the Muscle Car. We are looking for the "Top Dogs" from each manufacturer. My wish-list includes; a Hemi Superbird, LS6 Chevelle, Rebel Machine, Ram Air IV GTO or Firebird, an outstanding Challenger or Charger R/T, a CJ Cougar or Cyclone, an R-Code Ford, a Buick GSX and several others. If you own an outstanding example of one of these cars, or have a possible candidate, please let me know.

Shelby Snakepit II: With the incredible response we receieved with our first Shelby Snakepit display, we have decided to again host a gathering of Mr. Shelby's finest creations.

Deuces Wild; Schoeney has agreed to coordinate a collection of Yenko Deuces that wil feature ONE of each of the available colors offered. Please contact Ken if you would like to be a part of this special collection.

Motion Madness; Marty Schorr suggested we top what was done several years ago, and with his assistance and encouragement, I believe we can do it. If you own or know of any REAL Baldwin-Motions cars, please help us make some history.

Buick Stage 2 Special Display; we have confirmed this one! This special display will feature not just one, but TWO authentic, documented factory Buick Stage 2 cars along with a collection of related Stage 2 parts and memorabilia. These are the ONLY factory authorized Stage 2 cars ever built, and seeing them up close will indeed be a rare treat. This is a collection that may never again be shown under one roof. Many of you may have read the article featuring the stories of these cars and their development in a recent issue of Muscle Car Review.

Hemi Challenger display; many of you saw the amazing "El Hemi" Challenger which was shown by the Escalante family at our inuagural show. Well...the only thing better would be to have the El Hemi sitting beside yet another amazing Hemi Challenger; that would be the N94 that is currently under restoration and owned by one of the sYc's favorite members!

Midget Racer display; Dr. Ken Kadziela will be hosting a very special display featuring a circle of vintage Midget Racers. This is certainly a differant kind of muscle that is a whole lot of fun and rarely seen. We want to keep things interesting, so this is one way to do it!

This is just the beginning of what we feel will again set the standard. As always, if you have any suggestions, please feel free to get a hold of me any time. [email protected] or call (586) 549-5291.

More to follow!

And of course, we look forward to hosting TWO special gatherings for sYc members.

First, the sYc Supercars Showcase. This special group will feature real-deal, documented dealer-built Supercars from Yenko, Gibb, Dana and others,

Second; the sYc Members Showcase; this one will feature Muscle Machines owned and maintained by sYc members.

It is not too early to make plans for our 2010 show!

Bob,

Like I had said.... 2010 will even be better! The Buick Stage 2 Display will bring Buick fans far and wide to see these two very rare and spectacular Buicks. Looking forward to 2010.

Thanks Dan, your assistance with this one is much appreciated.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

I have several meetings scheduled in Scottsdale to line up some other great stuff, and if anyone who is hitting the auctions would like to meet up to discuss additional possibilities, please give me a call. (586) 549-5291.

We have also discussed the possibility of a "Cars of Hurst" feature. This could cover qite a bit, with the various Olds, Pontiac, Mopar, AMC and other creations that came out of the Hurst facilities.

This could include various Hurst/Olds, SS Darts and Barracuda's. the SC/Rambler, all kinds of cool Pontiac's and a whole lot more.

Anyone out there have a cool Hurst Muscle Machine in their garage that would like to be a part of the coolest all indoor specialty Muscle Car show?

The Reynold's Buick Stage 2 car is simply amazing. Pictures don't do the car justice. Been close enough to touch it, but I dared not, even if the owner is a friend of mine.

It's definitely a must see for any and all Buick fans- and not to mention, It's owner is a great guy.

So that's who bought it. I'm over on the V8Buick forums, and people tend to keep hush-hush about certain things.

If I'm not mistaken, his 442 was in the same Muscle Car Review as the Stage 2 cars, correct?
