I will give it a try to be there myself. Look for me somewhere near the gold & black Baldwin Motion Phase III GT vette that George has in the auction.
Perhaps we all need to wear a sYc or Yenko.net name tag? That way we will reconize each other easier? Of course I will have a Motion decal on too. Pantera ROB do you have a thought on that Idea? ![]()

A few of us from Chicago area will be getting there on Wendsday and staying until Sunday. It really is a good time. If you go dont forget to go to the car show they have at the McDonalds It is huge.

I am amazed at those I know with cars for sale,making the trek to Scottsdale in January.
All seem to have dollar signs in thier eyes,& rightly so,I guess. It's going to resemble the Woodstock of Car Auctions! John...Tell Glenn H. to wave to us,IF his drink hand is free. |

There are other hotels south from the auction right off the 101. They are not that much further from the hotels off N.scottsdale road and maybe less expensive. Also I suggest spending the 300.00 bucks and getting a bidders' pass. Not only do you have the option of bidding, but you get close-up parking access and admission for yourself and a guest. Admission this year is 50.00 a day per person so this seems to make sense. BTW, last Pavillions' car show I attended had original '71 hemi cuda coupe and convertible and '69 COPO Chevelle (Micky Hale restored) and perfect blue LS6 etc. so it's worth checking out. The only thing that sucks about it is the obnoxious music.

Like COPO, I have wanted to go for several years. I will be there Thursday-Sunday and plan to get my money's worth. You can sleep when you are dead! Probably can't afford anything there but just look forward to the experiance. Tell me more about were and when on the McDonald's thing. I suspect that just like spectacles everywhere there is as much going on in the surrounding area as at the show. Anyone else have other suggestions on activities us newbies might not know about? Maybe a planned get together(lunch,dinner,beer) is a good idea,I am certainly game.

Bill, Scottsdale is awesome. Lots of great golf, dining and shopping. Don and Charlies restaurant is a must ( I'm serious) - 7501 E. Camelback Rd. 480-990-0900. Old town Scottsdale is fun, nice Mall at Fashion Square. Anyway if you need info, you can PM me, I've lived in AZ. for years and know Scottsdale pretty well. Good Luck, BJ is an exciting time in Scottsdale.
