[GSPI]

[GSPI]

Make sure you get in your registrations for entry to the show! I want to make sure that you all can get a spot and a gift bag for your entry.

Thanks again for all your guys support.

[MOstang]

I'll add a shameless plug for this show. If anyone is on the fence about attending, I would really encourage you to make it. I attended the first one, last year, and it was a well done. The Cleveland Chief of PD even showed up and thanked everyone for their attendance.

[NoDrama43]

Greg I was going to try and make it but I am working that weekend and my squad is already short staffed so I cannot get time off. Maybe next year !

[GSPI]

We'll keep the light on for you Jim! We are working diligently trying to expand the show. My group in the Vehicle committee really have worked hard on it.

[GSPI]

We are closing in on the last few weeks before the show! We are very close to 20 cars and I'm looking for those that are on the bubble. Make sure you PM me or email me if you are thinking of going. Thanks again for all your support!

[GSPI]

We even have a limited edition T-Shirt...here is the artwork for the back:

What do you think?

[MOstang]

Very cool! :2thumbs:

[GSPI]

This week will be up fast and the show will be on! Thanks again for the participants and visitors for all their support! We are still taking registrations for anyone that is a last minute participant so if you need a registration form let me know!

[MOstang]

Anyone else from the forum attending with a car or just to stroll through? Stop by and say hi if anyone drops in...this year's shaping up to be another fun time. Greg and others on the committee have worked hard on the event.

Wow some great shots there, what a turnout!

[GSPI]

Well another great show in the books! A personal thank you to all the participants coming from near and far we really appreciated your effort in making it to our show and we look forward to this annual event and your return visit with us next year! I also want to thank our museum volunteers that made this possible and the trustees for having the confidence in our hobby participation. We want to make sure that you have June 21, 2014 marked on your calendar and cordially invite you again to visit us for next year’s show.

By the way the 1978 Ford LTD was the one that we picked up this year. I will be sending the Mustang to this body man right after the Fury gets fixed up.

[28HopUp]

Thanks for posting the pictures. I was sorry that I could not attend, but we had a family commitment this past weekend. So it is great to see the photos. :thumbsup:

[MOstang]

Great job again to Greg/GSPI, the Cleveland PD Historical Society and Cleveland PD. Can't say enough good things about what great hosts they were for all of us. I've participated with a car in the show last year and this year and it is really one to not be missed. A date has already been established for next year...plenty of time to put on your calendar.

[GSPI]

Thank you Mike! Yes next year's show is set for June 21, 2014 10AM to 3PM for the public.
