BCA 2012 national meet in Charlotte, NC

[Brian]

How many of you out there are planning to come to the BCA national meet at Charlotte Motor Speedway in July of this year?   I just live 1 hour drive north of where the show is in a small town called Mocksville and was thinking of having a gathering of 64-67 Specials/Skylarks/GS and cookout at my place one evening that week.  I live on two acres in the edge of the woods with lots of grass and shade to line up the cars.   Just wanted to see who all is planning to come to the show and what the interest in something like this is.  I have never seen or heard of a show/gathering for just the 64-67s before and thought it would be great to get a bunch of them together.  I have 3 in my garage that will be there.

Looking at the schedule of events the BCA has planned for the week, it looks like Thursday night would be a good time to have a gathering of the '64-'67s and a cookout at my place.  Not sure when everyone is planning to roll into NC for the show, but was thinking that people may be traveling to the show on Thursday and could stop through Mocksville on the way in that night. 
  Any thoughts?

Hey Brian,

You can count me in, will be neat to see how many variations of 64-67's show up and how many are the 3 pedal variety

Sounds like a good time for all of us to put some faces to some of the names finally.

Hope to see all you there,

Regards,

I think I will try to do that also, let me know the details.  It's been awhile since I've headed that way!

[Brian]

James,
  You should join the BCA and bring your car to the show--rare oportunity to take your car to a national level show that is all Buicks!   Last time it was this close to this area was in 1994 when it was in Atlanta.

I'm actually registering at the end of the week for the meet and the BCA!

Hi all,

Should be sending in my registration on Friday, hope to see a bunch over at Brian's as it should be neat to get together that many early cars and there owners

Thou, if you know Brian, you already know he has a nice mini car show already. I know I was amazed the first time I went over to see the 4 door I later bought.

See you all there...

My buddy and I are driving up from south Florida in his '62 Buick Invicta Convertible for the meet. He's having his vert judged and then putting it up for sale. I was able to talk my father, a 41 year Buick retiree, into driving down from Flint and meeting us. I'd love to meet some of the people on here, especially at a cook-out with their cars.

I'm Working on my dance card for BCA Nationals week.

Are you still hoping to try and put something together for Thursday?

Is there anything we could help with?

I have a grill and a big place with lots of yard to park some cars.  I am not always the best at organizing food (barely keep myself fed--part of being a single guy).   So once we have a count on how many people, if someone can help me plan out what food to get and how much to get, that would be a big help! 

[Brian]

Looks like we are right at a month away from the BCA meet in Charlotte.  I counted 6 people saying they were interested in the cookout at my house.  I need to start planning the details for it and need to get a good headcount.  Here are the ones that posted and said they were planning to come:

Mark Ascher
Jim Moses (and spouse)
Ted Nagel
Jonesy
Milton Dale
James Scarboro
