Been talking to William Deary (the carroll collection) about his black gt40 the hero car from ford vs Ferrari movie and he is bringing it to our show with some of the movie items for display so that should be really cool along with the other gt40s coming!!

Special Ed

5 days left till show deadline and only got 5 rooms left . We got 30 or so shelbys coming including 2 65 gt350s and 1 R model. We really want to get as many 70 shelbys here since its going to be the only 50th anniv. show that's going to happen and want to get a group photo having more 1970 shelbys in one place since they left the KK plant 50 years ago.

Rooms are available still  as of today. 3 types, all the same price(price was different yesterday for one of them). Now I need to make sure I can get a trailer if Seraphim takes his original paint 69 Boss 429 there. Ed, can you look at my PM and fill me in on some things? Thanks.  Gary

We have been allowed ten additional rooms at the French Lick Hotel (Host Hotel) and an extension on our deadline to Sept. 1st. After that date any remaining rooms in our reserved block will be released. And room rates will return to normal price.

So, anyone that has not reserved a room or registered for event with banquet have a little more time.
And as before in case of cancellation due to Covid 19 refunds are guaranteed.

SEPT 1 hotel reservation deadline.

According to the hotel you can cancel even if the event isn't cancelled due to covid 19(we all know things happen in life). Did I get misinformation Brent?  Gary

We had our meeting saturday with the lady who host all the automotive events at French Lick Resorts and the contract was signed so this show is a GO and we have some big sponsors lined up. We still have some details to work out and pre-registrations and discount hotel rooms info will be coming by end of june. We will have the Friday cruise and touring stop at 2 car collections and a meet and greet Friday evening then Saturday indoor concours judging on lifts and feature cars and 50th anniversary cars will be in the pavillion and popular vote car show cars will be next door in a covered parking area so rain wont be a problem and plenty of room as they have hosted a 400 corvette event here before  and then the evening banquet and then sunday many activities for the whole family in the area. We will determine the judging classes after we get some imput on how many and which cars are coming that want judged.  The IN SAAC spring fling judging and the Tulsa Mid America Ford  event judgings were both cancelled this year so we are both teaming up for this one event and using the mid America Ford judging sheets and rules to make it official. We are hosting the 50th 1970 Shelby and Boss cars but all shelbys and boss mustangs and other performance cars are welcome. We are trying to get an idea on how many people are coming so we know about how many rooms to reserve for our group discount rate since this resort sells out at this time of the year when the fall color season begins and other activities in the area going on. So post here if u are coming and if bringing a car what car u are bringing and if u are interested in the judging or popular vote?

I joined SAAC earlier this year after many years in the Corvette world. We took our cars to all levels of Regional and National judging and even had one displayed in The National Corvette Museum for a year. We are hooked on Shelby Mustangs and have just become the proud owners of Carryover 6S248. Am I too late to bring it to French Lick for judging? If that's possible, what's the procedure with SAAC? Appreciate any help. Thanks, Dan

Special Ed

The French lick resort gave us an extension for our show to sept 1 now so we got 10 more rooms and more banquet tickets. We now have around 15 or so cars being judged on lifts inside so weather wont be a factor and we will be using mid America ford judging sheets. Go to   www.insaac.org for more info  thanks

Our discounted rooms are all booked, but additional rooms may be available at normal room rates thru the hotel.
You can still register, and get banquet tickets, but you will have to do it the old fashioned way. Go to www.insaac.org, download the registration form, and mail it in.
Or contact me, and I will email you one.
Have room for 2 more Concours cars, and about 20 specialty display cars. And as far as Popular vote cars, have room in parking garage for 450 , so room isn't an issue there.
Come and join us ,Oct. 2-4, French Lick Resort & Casino, French Lick, Indiana.
