I'm there arrive fri leave sun, staying at the collinsville holiday inn, lotsa mopars there!

Let me know if any of you would be interested in getting together,  I have a building in Madison "the Mopad" Pool table, TV, computer and lots of mopar stuff pictures adds etc.  Be a good place to relax have some beverages and talk mopars.

[Blue Pentastar]

OK I have to ask 41Husk what is mopad? is it a business or just a personal space to crash and play. I think it would probably be easier to get together at the track or have a meeting place to stop and rest.

But am open to suggestions. We will have a canopy set up in the show car field.

The mopad is a building I bought in Madison IL, it is about 5 miles from the track.  There I fixed an area up with a bar my computer, pool table fridge,  Mopar pics and posters, a big screen tv.  Just a man cave!!!  If your into mopars it is a pretty cool place to see if I have to say so myself, oh yeah there is a sofa sleeper if some one needs to crash or has a bit to much cold drink from the fridge.

I will be there along with my dad and some friends. Not sure if we will bring my '69 R/T, dad's '71 R/T, or both.  I forget which motel in Collinsville we booked at as it was a while ago.  

[41husk]

I will have a spot in the swap area,  look me up !  I wish cudaken was around he could post some pics of the mopad,  I know he did about 6 months ago when it was still a work in progress.

[Blue Pentastar]

I will try to look you up. I am going to try and put up some sort of notice of who I am to atract attention. Do you all think The forum web address or Blue Pentastar?

Which would be easier to catch I was thinking the address would be more definitive.

I'll be there on Saturday & Sunday.  Not sure if I'll bring just the R/T or the 2-ton truck & R/T together - depends on if I have time enough to get both of them cleaned up.

I'll be spending a bunch of time trying to help out with the Aero Cars display, and generally trying to keep those guys happy.  Hope to get around and see some of you guys though!

Allen, here's the link where cudaken posted some pics of the Mopad:

I've been trying like hell to have my 68 ready for the show this year.  I was almost on pace to be done, but I just found out one of my friends is getting married that weekend, so I'll have to be a no-show.      The Mopad sounds cool, I'll have to check it out next year.  You'll all have to take some good pics for me...

[41husk]

Thanks for posting that Geno, I brought it back to the top with an invite to all.  It looks much better now

[Blue Pentastar]

Looks pretty cool for a guys pad. How much garage space do you have there? I hope we have time to see it but between car show and drag racing it doesn't leave a whole lot of time. Oh and I have to make a trip down to pennies bar b q or I just don't feel right.

here at the mopad it is about a car and a half,  at the house it is a two car but much to my wifes dismay the 68 Charger is parked right in the middle of that one    I was hoping Friday night when the track closes, If I remember that is about 5:30 or 6.

If anyone books at the colinsville holiday Inn, tell them your there for the show they have a group of rooms discounted but they are limited.

[41husk]

what is the rate at the Collinsville Holliday INN?

[Blue Pentastar]

I am staying at the motel 6 in Caseyville. I won't know what time I will get in on friday.

Mike

[mopar_madman]

what is the rate at the Collinsville Holliday INN?

normally I think its over 100 a night depending on room and days (weekends I think are more) I got 85.95 a night (fri and sat) But they said the reserved rooms for the show are filling up.

[41husk]

a few exits earlier is hyw 111 in Granite city,  There is a Super 8, Best Western, holiday inn express and another hotel , cant remember the name,  They are clean a little closer to Madison and are usualy cheaper and will match if not,  If people need some phone #s let me know I will be happy to look them up if anyone is interested.

[41husk]
