Just down the road there Coastie.....
Mine is a garage queen, not a pavement queen. It has only ever gotten wet when it was being washed. The chalk build marks on my frame look like they were made yesterday.....you can still read the sticker/label on my driveshaft.
You think I'm getting it dirty now....12years in ain't happening

what about Old town they have car shows and cruises every friday and sat?

[Chopper]

Detailing for shows and display is a giant part of what I do. anything from a dust and buff on a customer car, to an Amelia Island style show finish that may take a full 4 weeks or more....
What do you want to know?

[CoastieCosta567]

I'll wear the red speedos w/ a big-O Dub Chain

So alot of suggestions as to where to meet have been tossed around.

I think Orlando would be a fair place to meet,it's almost a fair driving distance for all of us.
I did a quick Mapquest drivetime for everyone...course I'm sure it a rough estimate.

Melbourne, Fl 1hr 16 min
Brooksville, 1hr 28min
clearwater 2hr
St. Petersburg 1hr 51min
Tampa, FL 1hr 27min
land o lakes 1hr 40min
safety harbor 2hr
boynton beach 2hr 53min
Jacksonville 2hr 17min
Ocala 1hr 19min
Palm Coast 1hr 20min
New Smyrna Beach 1hr 5min

What to you guys think?

My trip to Orlando consisted of Turnpike driving only, except for up and down International Drive several times. My little brother stayed at the $180/nite Rosen property and I opted for the $49/nite. They were only about a mile apart. Did an unexpected full price day at Universal Studio's too.. It's an easy drive for me to Orlando, it's the driving around while there that can be a pain sometimes. Hard to get a good picture of where you are. Took my brother to the airport at 5 AM yesterday and the GPS took us on the toll road to the airport but coming back to the hotel kept us on the surface streets. Glad I didn't have to pay more tolls but the stop and go even at 5 AM may have cost more in fuel. My schedule is going to get more busy in the next month. How much lead time can we have. Can someone pick a day in late Feb or early March ? The first weekend in March is out for me, my youngest daughter is turning 16...............

well I'll start looking for a good place in orlando to meet,don't want to end up hanging out in some big parking lot lol. Unless someone has a big property at there house we can comfortably hang out

In regards to WHEN we meet I'll leve it up to you guys as I make my own schedule and can go whenever.

[RodL]

Sounds good, my new work schedule should be out by the end of the week. I vote for shade if it can be had, at least for the afternoon sun. Good Hunting.

Ok,so finding a location in orlando is not as easy as it sounds.
I'm not to familiar with the area,and the fue places I was able to find are just parking lots >.<
BUT!! I do have one idea.
What about my place? I didn't mention it before because I didn't want to be unfair with drive time.
But I have over half a city block and I can fit over 30 cars. I can supply music,chairs,tables,bathroom,water hose for washing, It's fully shaded by the trees. AND I can supply some food and if you want I can arrange for a food vendor.
It's in historic Downtown Brooksville"you can see the courthouse from my front yard"

It's just a thought and I wouldent mind doing it at all.
Let me know what you guys think.
