    Padgett, Never having been to this event would a 1990 very clean driver Reatta be welcome? Or would the 1971 Skylark vert be more welcome?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Re: Oktoberfest atSilver Springs

    Either would be fine, is also a tour to Cedar Key (what Key West used to be) on Friday. White 'vert is most likely for me. Has a/c. Well, the Judge does also but has a healthy appetite for premium.

    Have wondered if the Vixen would be welcome - designed by GM engineers, built in Pontiac, and front end is all GM.

    Mailed my application on 5/31. Would like to see more Reattae this year. Mine was the only one there in 2011.
    Padgett, Vixen should be welcome, looks like all it takes is minimum of one GM lugnut qualifies for entry.
    Richard, would like to see your Reatta there. .... Jim

    Re: Oktoberfest atSilver Springs

    Reatta it will be. The most distance I have driven The Skylark is about 400 miles round trip. Trying to keep the mileage down. However with almost 18,000 miles on the odo it probably doesn't matter any more.

    Padgett, how far has your premium drinking Judge traveled?

    I don't really know, probably about two tanks a year + StaBil and CD2.

    Mine goes in tomorrow! Stupid question, Since my car is a driver and will not be judged do I still mark it as an "E" body?

    Re: Oktoberfest atSilver Springs

    The wife and I were there 2 years ago in her Black '90 coupe, but we're unable to attend this year as we won't be leaving Western New York until sometime after the 20th of the month. Was hoping to reconnect with Padgett and Reattajim again. Hope it's a good show this year.

    Well, there were three two seater Buicks there but one was from 1914. Please tell me I don't want another Corvair.
