Anxiously waiting for photos intent wasn't meant to "build a fire under anyone" - lol! Safety and the meet come first for sure! The posted photos are greatly appreciated. - BC

That is a lotta pix to post especially in that we don't host our own image files. Anyway I would like to see the others too.

I saw my 94 lookalike, my 01 lookalike but didn't see anything deep Godzilla green. I wonder when the next local meet out here is.

And so concludes another amazing meet! Still have a few stragglers here (Booze bros and Emily) doing some last minute fixing of issues on their vehicles before heading out tomorrow morning.


I want to give a huge thanks to those of you that came out and took part in making this meet another huge success! These meets can be time consuming, difficult, stressful, and expensive to plan (this year was pretty cheap though!) but the great times had by all makes it totally worth it! It is always great to see so many of these cars in one place as well as a total welcoming feeling for any newcomers or owners of other various cars, honestly makes me proud to be a host of these meets and a member of Pontiac Bonneville Club. I believe everyone had a great time, we got a LOT accomplished this weekend - three wheel bearings changed, several cars one step polished, hit up the Intense meet in Detroit, various tail lights tinted and installed / wetsanded and polished, brakes done, found the cause and fixing Williams issues on the SSEi, got the Mutt running, created a bunch of envy by all for Pat, Randy, and Williams cars, a ton of tuning going on both old school and new school, CV axle work, winning trophys, mega fire, and tons of laughs. This list could go on and on, I honestly couldn't even keep up with everything that was going on all the time, I tried to keep up and help out where I could as well as get my own stuff done, I hope everyone got done what they wanted to get done!


There were a few items left behind as well, a silver Mag Lite and a big extension cord so far have been found, there may be more as things continue to get cleaned up.

No worries at all, I wasn't intending that towards anyone, just saying in general why we couldn't get any pics up yet There will be more pics posted tonight for sure

Ryan you got some great ones! I especially like the one where I'm buffing my car, really shows the difference a quick polish made.

Who's got tripod pics?

Niice!!

Thanks so much to Ryan and Heather for hosting! It was an incredible weekend with amazing people. I only wish it hadn't been so short!!!

I'll get my pictures up here soon, but many of you have me on FB and they're there for now.

Here we go!

Those shots were amazing Jerry!

I had a great time this year! I'm glad I finally got to see everybody and their cars in person. You guys are all a great group of people!
I wish I could've helped out more with tuning but there was a lot of stuff going on and a lot stuff I wanted to do that kept me preoccupied. Hopefully my schedule plays more nicely next time.
Thanks to Ryan for hosting this year and for helping me finish polishing my taillights; I'm still admiring them every time I look at my car!

Excellent Meet and pics by everyone! Looks like one heck of a turnout and bummed I missed it. The pictures only make me miss it that much more.

Glad to see a few trophies come home to this community with the great cars we have truly built. It's amazing how we can make these cars stand out without bolt on appearance mods like most have access to.

Here's all the pics I had from when Alyssa and I were there Thursday and Friday. It was a lot of fun! It was awesome to finally put faces and names to just screen names from here. I'm still bummed I couldn't make it to the Intense meet...

Here is my pics in no particular order

WOW!!! Love all the great photos and even more the fantastic cars! Obviously a blow-out meet. - BC

Omg Jerry I love your pics.

That one of Ed, me, and you at the show is a fantastic case study:

Stock suspension -> coilovers -> lowering springs

That pic of William at the fire should be framed.

Here's some of the few I managed to get with my phone. The phone isn't ideal but they're okay.

Convoy down to Royal Oak:











I managed to get in a few rolling shots of the sides of some of the cars around me. Some are good lol.





On the way down we ran into a bunch of Monte Carlo's and other W-body's!





That's about the point we got off the highway and ran into some traffic so I couldn't get any more shots.

At the 3800 meet:

the Magnuson Supercharger:



Turbo fiero:




Finally back at Ryan's:

Ryan and his son polishing my taillights after I had wetsanded them:



They came out amazing!



That's all from here!

Jerry, those look like HDR pics. That built into your camera? They look great.

As with everyone else, I had a great time as well! Big thanks to Ryan and Heather! This meet did seem way more hectic than in the past, hence the reason I didn't get the photos or video that I wanted. I really think for the next meet we actually need to block out time for doing pics and video. This was a fun time, and got to meet awesome people (new and old faces), and see some wicked fast cars (although I didn't ride in any this time). Another thanks to Ryan for his input on the wheel bearing (and thanks to Tim for doing the actual work), and a huge thanks to Austin for helping to figure out my electrical/audio issues (although the problem is still there, it's not as bad, and I'm still thinking it's related to a alternator/voltage problem).

Unfortunately, Tim's Cutlass lost 3rd and 4th gear on the way home, which turned Monday into a very long day. Used my AAA membership, which allows a free tow up to 100 miles, and it turned out to be 99 miles from the point of break down to home. That was pure luck. Yesterday was kind of hectic with him looking at the pan and finding a place to store the car. I then had to take him home (hour drive both ways), so, I didn't get much done. I'm hoping in the next couple of days I get my pics and video uploaded, but it won't be today as the cameras are at home, and I'm real busy at work (the technology storm of the century happened while I was gone).

I just wish it wasn't over already! Too much fun in such a short time!

Those look amazing! I want some to frame. I need to post a picture of my registration tag from the meet, it was a good one too.

What an embarrassing photo of me haha

Really bummed I missed it now. Jerry, really amazing pics.
