Who can tell me about this event scheduled for 9/25? Who is planning on going?
From the FCA web site: A casual event at the Coady Family car dealership in Loda/Roberts, Illinois. They display their wonderful car collection and will have some real car experts on vintage stuff attending the affair. Bringing fine vehicles is not mandatory but encouraged. The fun runs from 10AM-4PM. Food will be provided. Loda/Roberts, Illinois Rita will give you directions when you RSVP via telephone (number below). Rita Coady | xxx-xxx-xxxx (didn't want to post the number here) No FCA registration required but you must RSVP
Yep, say that, just wondering about the Coady's and if anyone is planning on attending and interested in driving down together.
My son and I plan to head down to Roberts about 8:30 AM on the 25th, it seems we will be braving southern Illinois on our own.
If anyone has the chance...I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you cruise down with Gerry for this gathering. It's a sort of "private invite" event that the FCA members have been given an invite to. If you're into a ton of interesting cars just showing up...well, this is your event. Ever seen a 1902 Indian Motorcycle (the 14th produced from the factory) still in it's original shipping crate? It'll be there. How about a Pebble Beach winning 410 Super America? Yep...It'll be there. A very high-end hand-built replica Maserati 450s that "the guys" used to cruise around in "to pick up chicks"...yep - there. Trust me...this isn't a gathering of the usual...it's worth the drive! Here's just a few pics from 2008...I can't show the really good stuff...

Fun day, nice drive, great cars and gracious host. Here are a few quick photos from early in the day. By lunch time cars covered the most of the lawn. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
What an amazing weekend! Drove the GT4 from Fort Wayne to Rochester to up near Gary then down to Roberts, back to the Gary area and back to Fort Wayne. Right around 500 miles put on the GT4 and she ran flawlessly!!! Good to see and meet everyone at the Open House!
