Default Pre '89 Porsches needed for French Lick Concours

I have been appointed to be on the committee this year to round up 8-10 Porsches up to 1989. This is a high quality event with wonderful cars that have come from all over the world. If you have a great show car and would be interested in participating, please PM me or email me at meredithbuilder at gmail dot com. I have not yet figured out how to represent our cars with just 10 cars in the class so I am putting out feelers for all original show cars from 356 to 928s to Turbos etc....Let me know if you are interested
What is great about this show is that in case of poor weather, the cars and show can go indoor.

Cool, didn't know there was a concours at French Lick. Tempting to drop in this fall and see the event as well as the Porsches from 356 to 928s to Turbos etc. ...

It originated as the Louisville Concours at Churchill Downs, but after 4 years they wanted too much money to host the show so it was moved to French Lick in 2013.

We have at least four 928's heading from MI to French Lick for the Porsche Parade in June, looks like a nice venue/area.

Be sure to stop by and say hello to Larry Bird, the self-described "hick from French Lick"

After some inquiries I realized that there is some confusion mixing this up with this summers Porsche Parade. This is a completely separate event held in October in French Lick. It is not a Porsche only show. There are many classes of different cars and in the past some of the best show cars in the world have attended the event. My job is to find 10 pre '89 concours quality Porsches to enter.
