  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    My wife hasn't sent the entry in, I think I'm going to have to pay the extra dollar the day of the event!
    I don't know why it works this way but with all the weekends that have nothing going on, this same day is suppose to be the day Pinks is in Seattle, and it's the Pushrods car show in Hoquiam. I know the Pushrods show is a small show, there MIGHT be one other Buick there, but it's one that I never miss, and there are guys that I see there that I only get to spend time shooting the breeze with one time a year. I'll make the Friday night gathering for that show. Won't be a lot of the guys or cars there yet, but what the heck.
    I'm going to the Buick show, I just wish all the things I want to do weren't the same day! If I only made three events this summer, these would be the three that I went to!

    I'm looking forward to it! After a couple weeks with nothing going on, this weekend has the big Buick show that I will be at, there is a show in Hoquiam that I'm going to miss for the first time in several years, and isn't Pinks going to be in town?
    Oh well, Friday night in Hoquiam for a warm up, Saturday in Puyallup, and if the weather holds, there should be lots of cars out and about in Longview! Should be a great weekend!

    Sounds like a big turnout on Saturday. I looking forward to meeting some of folks I know online to meeting face to face. Weather man Says "low 70`s" But around here the best report is walk out the door and look.
    Til then

    Thanks Jamie - but I really am worthy.:moonu:

    I am staying at the King Oscar motel just north of Puyallup on 167. A trucker motel - not much but it has a bed & shower and it is where I stay when I go to the Goodguys in late July. Close to Puyallup. Be there Friday night - stopping in Oly for dinner with the grand daughter - then the motel. Might even be up for a parking lot visit when I get there if any other Buicks are around.:beers2:

    sunday looks like the bad day, for rain, looks like the pontiac guys are going to get wet.

    I will be there, dont know if I am bringing my kids or not. Never know I may fall asleep in the back seat of my buick again this year like I did last year.

    Looking forward to seeing you all and the spectacular Buicks on Saturday!

    The Buick Open is always one of the high points of my automotive year, and we have the opportunity to "wow" Puyallup with an incredible turnout of vintage Buicks.
