^^^This. It's best to get in by 8:30 am or so, 9 at the latest, or else you miss out on many good deals. Lots to see and it takes awhile to see it all. 10 would be my cutoff. You can park free pretty much anywhere.

That would be great Ross. You will find center caps for the wheels too.

I didn't realize it was done by 3. We will get our butts moving earlier. See you all there.

If I remember correctly parking in the Concours area is an addition $10 donation. That's where we normally all hang out at.

And yet, every year there are more than a few dogs in attendance.

As chance would have it, I'm going through there on Friday night, and hoping to stay over and take in a bit of the Hershey swap on Sat. If anyone has a bed to share, or will allow a trundle bed at the White Rose, I would be happy to compensate for a small spot overnight. They are booked up BTW.

Not sure on arrival but will likely be after 10PM. PM me, or just post here with any help. Looking forward to representing the Republic in central PA. Oh - last time I was in that area, I was working on a little power plant down the road, sitting in the middle of the river. It was rather - messy, at the time. (not my fault - honest!)

Just show up Doc. We'll draw spark plug cables off of Otto's 86.5 and the short cable will take you in.

Works for me. I was dreading trying to blow up my air matt and sleeping in the hatch of the 928. Particularly since I will have one rear window covered with cardboard and tape.

But, on the upside, my dented, cardboard window, missing mirror 928 will be ready for concours judging.

I'm doing my best to get there. I have a new rad hose and oil filter on it's way from Roger. I just realized I have the older aluminum ball joints. I need to find a pair of them and do brake fluid and I should be good to go. Admittedly one of my fuel pumps is audible from in the cabin. I am unsure if that's a "have to do" right away or not.
