Americana Manhassett

Who's going
Who's showing

I think i can tell you right now who best of show will be.
Its going to be a 7 litre iso grifo, blue with white interior
A stunning car!

 

It's a fun show, but I don't know anyone who takes this show very serious as a concours. I'll be there again and my car has been chosen to be judged. Not a prayer on an award and they did not even ask for pictures.

 

Going, not being judged. It's just as good,if not better, to walk around the parking lot at this one.

 

Date?

 

10/11
I'm going/showing, but never expect an award here. Great venue, beautiful show both in the show, and in the parking lot!!

 

A nice showing of cars but the parking is horrendous and it draws too many (more than other shows) non-car people out looking for a way to spend the day.

 

I'll be there. My car will be on display in the back parking lot

 

i like the show. had my xke judged few years ago but now just display my lotus. have a wedding later that same day though so not sure will be able to make it.

anyone know what napolis is bringing? might have to be late to wedding if he brings the new scg's

went to the glen cove show yesterday. lots of same cars that show up to americana. anyone else here there? would have been much more enjoyable if wasnt blasting heavy metal all day

 

Yep...This show nothing more than a local dog and pony show...
I'll be there with my XKE this year..
Just buffing her out now!

Never heard back from them. Anyone else?

 

whoa, need more pics and info on that red beauty!

 

Got an email from them this past Friday.

 

I also received my confirmation email on Friday. They asked for a "contact phone #" for day of the show. Same as in previous years. It's a great show, beautiful cars both in the show, and in the parking lot. The judging doesn't concern me, as I don't expect to win an award. My wife loves it there (I can't say that my credit card enjoys the extra exercise), they lay out a nice spread for breakfast and lunch. If you haven't heard by the end of the week, reach out to Heather Dascalopoulo, 516-627-6700

 

Decent showing; between the display cars, the parking lot, and the dealer cars. Worth the 15 minute drive for me. I'll be "parking lot pimpin" again with either the horse or bull depending on weather.

 

What time do you guys get there to get a spot in the parking lot?

 

8am, if you want to see stuff without all the insanity of car folks and shoppers clogging the place up.

 

A friend of mine bought this car..
He will be at show with it.
I am predicting....Best in Show...unless of course Jim G. Brings something outrageous!!!!
Then All Bets are Off

A buddy is trying to convince his friend to bring his Cheetah. That would be a show stopper. Beautiful example.

 

Glenn who owns the iso is also bringing one of his 2 black 512 boxers
Not sure if will be his injected or carbed.
This year show should be best yet

 

Yeah emails confirming participation went out last week. Gotta say they are off to a good start; usually there is mass confusion regarding who is in and who is not. Its the last good show of the season but I agree this is just a concours de popular. As much as the people there are a bunch of squids, its hard to complain considering this event is dropped in the middle of their gathering spot. Kind of like complaining about moving next to an airport.

 

I will be there. They picked my '83 308 GTS to be judged. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone. It's always a good time.

 

Oh man, now that hurts.

 

Not necessarily a bad thing:

Squid Reveal the Advantages of Feeling Pain : Discovery News

 

Sorry if you took that the wrong way. I was referring to the people who show up around 10:30 to do shopping and walk around the place with little regard for the cars that are there. I wasn't referring to the "car folks"

 

Scientists purposely inflicting pain on squid!!! What is this world coming to?
