who out there can hook me up with people going to this show next year as I wish to take my merc but haven't a clue about how.
I want to do the downstairs show.
It would be truly great if I could meet up and convoy along with people already going so I do not get lost or stressed out and to have someone to or several someone's to hang out with for the weekend.
Hotels etc would be good too.
Any contact info would also be great for entering. I did look up the entry stuff on the website, but not too sure which application is the right one, and does one send a cheque or does it have to be certified?
Hello seeker1056........great to see that fine truck brother....and yes the ELTA will be there again as always with I believe over 10 rides. Wayne (Rochie) is our point man on all the sign up and hotel booking and I know he'll be jumping in here shortly or sending you a PM. If you need to touch base 519-317-0283 is my cel brother...Detroit is always a great time...just too much fun with some of the best guys.
ok ELTA Boys - it says Wed PM or Thursday AM or PM - when do you guys go so I can so I can follow you in?
We always go down Thur morning for set up...we have everything for the display and Dennis Scott the main man for the basement has always made arrangement with Wayne to give the ELTA extra space again for this year as in the past years.
so am I signing up as a club then - if you allow me to be part of your group?
The ELTA always goes in as a club....lol....and we be happy to have you apart of the group...lol... all the "Disciples of Speed" are great guys.....you'll definitely have fun...lol. Here's a few pic's from last year.
well - I do guarantee you will like my ride in its finished form .. it goes out to get painted in a week or two
will they accept a couple unfinished pics I wonder as I wish to send my application on Monday , rather than at months end
and it would be just too dam awesome to come along for the ride with you guys.
Hey brother....not too worry .....the ELTA has a great relationship with the Detroit Autorama and they certainly over all these year have treated us very well. I know for a fact we have 3 or 4 brothers banging on non finished cars and Dennis Scott the main man in Detroit knows the type of quality rides we show up with each year plus the ELTA usually has one of the largest displays each year......not too bad for a small group of Canucks at the largest US Show....lol.
Can you get in touch with the show producer? It used to be ISCA. Promotions Inc. in Pontiac MI. Bob Larivee Jr. may be the one.

Hey Chris.....Ken will be in good hands and any good friend of yours is a good friend of the ELTA brothers. Just having the chance to chat with Ken the other night , one quickly knew that he's a very genuine person with a ton of experience...I already know Ken's going to fit in real well with all the brothers. Too bad you can't make it down to Detroit Chris..... it be great having you there also......maybe next year??
I still have a kink, but its not in my neck. and my eyebrows have grown back after the flaming marshmallow induction.
Too funny (kink).......that was a fun 4 days with a great group last year....it'll be hard to top but something tells me all the brothers will "rise" to the occasion this year....lol.
Ahhhh...if only that couch could talk eh Bob...lol.......the picture below brings back those fond moments with the lovely "Kat" ( still fill the dents Glenn...lol) and the other picture is the "Vicount"....or as he is known in other circles.. Chris "the Barrel" Nemath with the lovely pin up gal Sarah.

Fellas, you're gonna have a blast as usual. Wish ther weren't so many darned shows all within days of each other while I am still riding the coat tails of my busy season.. I have committed to some very great friends to pinstripe at Cleveland,if there were any way I could be in The Big D,I certainly would.. Would love to see Ken get raked over the coals the first time out,lol... It's okay too Ken, most of the hair will grow back eventually"......
