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

Mike Crisp should have details soon. Last I talked to Mike it was in Columbus NC the weekend of July 14 2018. |

Thanks Ron
Planing the Thing show and the Model T show for 2018. The Thing show is the priority for us. Looking forward to it. |

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. _________________ 63 singlecab

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!
Here is what I took in 2010.

I now realise that I had it wrong, Richmond is for the model T show, where will Kubel Treffen East be held? _________________ 63 singlecab

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

Yes, Mike has made plans with the Hotel and he has had that date since Kubel Treffen East last July. |
