Our show get over 200+ air cooled only. This year the club picked type 181's/Things to be the special car of the year. All Thing owners will receive a special gift. So please bring out your Thing in any shape. I own a 73 Sunshine Yellow Thing and will be proud of our class for sure Very Happy

I'm going to do my best to make it. I know the area well; mother in law lives about 5 mins away.

Looks like a nice drive from Detroit, I haven't driven my Thing through the Delaware Water Gap in 10 years.

Glad I won't have to cross the GWB Wink

Good weather, and I'm there.

Good luck, Mondshine

I was at the show last year and will be again this year for sure. There was a whole row of orange Things last year. Maybe us Philly Thing owners can meet up for a convoy to Flanders this year for added fun.

That's an awesome picture. I moved my yellow thing so you guys could arrange that. I remember someone looking a while for me to move it. Whoops.

I really hope we can get a bunch of Things. The camping is great and there is a local hotel that is close if you don't camp. If there is anything I can do to help you make it please ask. I only live 20 miles from the show and could store a trailer or two if you come early.
See ya then.

Did you come to Kubeltreffin in Dover? I remember talking with you I believe. We stayed in the host hotel with our two daughters.

And you know Casey, Dayton is not that far from Jersey.

There is still room for you guys at KTE 2015 in a couple weeks!

Good luck, Mondshine

That was fun day. My kids still talk about that weekend.
I would go out to the show, but I'm having back surgery this month. I'll be all healed up for September.
