Just wondering how many members will be attending? I probably won't unless there are more people in my area interested. It would be an awesome time I'm sure, but it would be better to head down with some other Monte owners of course

I have a few things I'll hopefully have done before then but I doubt a daily driver would be worth taking to Nationals but I don't really know it works so I'll probably just stick with a few smaller shows/meets around here.

Anyways, who else is going?

I've been to the last 2 Monte nats, Richmond, IN and York, PA, both were pretty cool and I met a few mwmbers from here..... If you register your car then you're on the show field, doesn't have to be the prettiest but it sure helps....

First year I had zero mods, I was just very happy to be there......

Second year I had a few mods, wheels, depo headlights, cai and nice exhaust and tips.....

I didn't get a trophy or anything like that but I did get a couple nice "participation" plaques and dash plaques. If you are going to be serious about how your car looks, I suggest that you put some serious elbow grease into your car while you're at the show......

The location is still too far for me - hopefully 2013 it will be back in the midwest.

Tad, sorry not really, but hopefully Amy will stop back here and be able to help. She is the resident expert on being judged and also judging car shows and a Monte Nats winner from the Richmond, IN show......
