Ron Main called the other day and invited the 496 Streamliner to the Grand National Roadster Show in January. We talked about it for a bit and made a decision to accept his invitation.
Brandon and I are very exited about meeting all all our west coast friends and being able to converse in in a relaxed atmosphere instead of the pressures and time restraints of Speedweek.

    Rob, that's great news! Now I won't have to wait till Bonneville to see your creation. Damon (our metalshaper) and I will be there to support the appearance of our "sister" car, the 534/1534 Hot Rod Hoodlums roadster.

     Rex, PM me your cell# so we can get together if you come down.

I thinking it is going to be a great time!
Not looking forward to crossing the Rockies on January with an open trailer. We will probably just shrink wrap the car before we leave.
We will just need to spend a little extra time cleaning her up when we get there.

If you come through Tucson (I-10), let me know-- you can stay the night here and then go up to Sparky's in Phoenix.

.....Not looking forward to crossing the Rockies on January with an open trailer. ...

You shouldn't be crossing the Rockies.  Drop down to St. Louis then 44 to I40 in Ok over to I15 in CA, down to I10 then west into Pomona.  Of course that time of year there can be snow across the TX panhandle, NM and AZ.  I'd plan on leaving up to a few days early and look for a weather window that looks good in those states.  They get snow but not a lot (usually  :-) ).

Have a great trip and if the car was ready for next year I'm sure you could find a place to leave it in the west,

Please note that I've started a thread for the GNRS 2014.  We're talking about the show enough that we might as well have a dedicated place to chat about it.  It's titled GNRS Grand National Roadster Show 2014 (naturally). :cheers: :cheers:

Sparky and Neil, I will make plans to visit both of you. I am really starting to look forward to this!
We needed a picture for Ron M. to put in the program and it occurred to me that we had no pictures of the car by itself off of the trailer. We then proceeded up to our local airport and took some pics.
Here they are.
