Newbie here ....... Bowtie Bryan encouraged me to join up a few months back, I get to a few events in Minnesota/North Dakota every summer so thought it would be good to meet you Chevelle guys and now that Chevellabration is dead wont be making that trip anymore so thinking of attending Car Craft this year would be great to hang with other Chevelle guys closer to home
Coming to Minneapolis for a few days dropping my car off in Shakoppee friday May 17th and should be free to make the meeting at QA1 on Sat ..........hoping I can leave my trailer at his shop and find my way to Lakeville .......looking forward to meeting up with you all

Yep, welcome...
Your car appears to be Aztec Bronze ??
I might attend CC with my '66 this year, but it will need to be in the "barn find" row.

Welcome Bill. I believe I have seen your car at Car Craft in the past. I wish my 66 was originally Axtec Bronze.

Welcome Bill!
Looking forward to meeting you at QA1. Let us know if you need help with any directions in that part of the metro. There are quite a few of us in that area.
You are more than welcome to join us at CC. The more the merrier! We have a great time, and lots to look at and talk about.

Stan's route involves dirt roads!!! Welcome!

Is this secret route on the way to QA1 from the Shakopee area though? If its not, it wont really help Bill out much since he isnt familiar with the road. Im sure any of us heading to the meeting can meet up with Bill and caravan there. Tim H, your in Shakopee, are you planning to make it?
Tim H said

Oh the route is from Shakopee. I'm just giving Stan a hard time. We went there last year and the roads were under construction. We didn't know it at the time. Stan was able to navigate us there without any issues.
I might make it but first I'd have to pay up and rejoin NCC and I've already been there for the tour.

Hey Bill, thanks for the mention and welcome!
I'm pretty sure I'll be missing the QA1 tour (again!), unless something magical happens.
We do have a couple guys from the Shakopee area that might be able to caravan with you, or at least give you the best (simplest) way to get there.

I'll be sure to leave the snow tires on so I can go too.

Bill, QA1 is in an industrial building area, but you should be able to find it with GPS.
And yes... following me on the maiden voyage of a virgin frame off restoration COPO tribute '69 Chevelle is NOT a good idea during construction season on gravel road detours!!! I owe Tim for that one when the vert is back on the road.
I'm sure you guys will find it. Looking forward to meeting our new members, welcome aboard.
Stan I did the same thing to Jon H last year on a mini cruise we took through WI. Only difference was they were putting down tar and stone, I can still hear him talking about my great aunt.

Looking forward to meeting you in a couple of weeks, Bill. If there's a long distance award for the QA1 meeting, I'm sure you'll win it!
