Tips for 1st time MCACN attendee - Page 2

You will have to make several rounds of the hall to take it all in as it is a bit overwhelming. 550+ cars is a bunch. There are likely several cars/displays you will want to re-visit. I've been to every single show and every year when looking at others photos afterwards I see several cars that I missed at the show even though I thought I caught everything. Take lots of pictures. My favorites are always the Barn Finds and the Vintage Certification/Survivor cars displays. Enjoy!

I was able to get through all of it mainly because there are certain makes and modesl that I don't have much interest in.

But some sections like the 442 corral was really interesting, I tend to like drag race entries.

I tried to say hi to @R68GTO but he was mobbed up by two guys lol.

Sorry I missed you. I'll be there as a spectator Saturday.

And book your reservations for next year because you will never want to miss this event again.

If you’re coming from Ontario does that mean you happen to be Canadian? Either way you’ll surely enjoy a new display this year called “Maple Leaf Muscle”, showcasing some of the coolest and wildest Musclecars either ordered new or manufactured in Canada. Over the years some of these cars have migrated down to the states, but several are being shown in the US for the very first time. Some really crazy and awesome stuff.

Yes I am Canadian and looking to repo some of the incredible E body verts that have found there way to the USA!
A certain bright green Challenger is on the top of my list Wade! 😜

We haven’t booked a hotel planning to head back to Grand Rapids after attending the show.
Hopefully we can see everything in one day.

Some good advise about managing time. There is no way to really “see” everything in one day. I drove 8 hours in the first time and went home again and now I stay 2 nights. 1 night is almost a must to get enough time even start absorbing all the incredible cars to look at.

My buddies took me out of there kicking and screaming!
Awesome experience!!!!
Thanks for all the advice!
Cheers!
