I am trying to plan 2018 schedules and was wondering if there has been a date nailed down yet for the 2018 Thing East?
Thanks
Gerald

It is in Richmond Indiana July 8-13th. Registration starts on January 2. From the meeting last weekend they want to limit to 150 Model T's but think it might be more like 200. They have a lot planed for the week.

Any updates?
I want to do east and west in 2018.
I will go from Cupertino, to KTW then KTE, then vintage meet in Seattle then home.

I think I will take my 73 with the 2054 motor, instead of my well behaved 74.

That's a very ambitious plan Sam.
You are the undisputed mileage/endurance king.
I am planning to attend both the west and east shows myself next year.
With almost a month between shows, there should be enough recovery time for me (and the Thing).
Hope to see you at KTW, Mondshine

This is what I plan to do, VW gods willing.
I'll probably drive 7,000 miles.
Will need to readjust the valves and change the oil.
Need to carry some zinc additive.

Chino is for Kubel Treffen West, Flat Rock North Carolina for KTE and Seattle for Vintage meet and my daughter in Olympia WA, I'll also go visit my cousins in Vancouver BC.

When I went to KTE years ago, I had a massive supply of spare parts, I guess I will try to find them, and hope not to use them again!

I now realise that I had it wrong, Richmond is for the model T show, where will Kubel Treffen East be held?

Is the date on the website (July 14 2018) locked in? If so I will plan accordingly. If not let us know.

Thanks
Gerald
