Celebration Car Show Registration Open Who's Going April 9th-12th

[Lenny]

If I can get my car started by then I'll be going. Who else?

This is a great show to attend even if you can't show your car.

I just read that the Beach Boys are going to be the band. I'm Going For Sure!!! Car or no car.

I really have to go to explain about Nick's car. Last year he went walking around and everyone asked me about the car. I think I did a better job than he did. I have more experience 8)

I will definitely attend, although without my car which is still under restoration.

I hope to bring it to the 2016 show.

I'll be there if my car gets finished in time and no further surprises pop up during projects

If I haven't already sold her by then, VIN 1150 will be there with me (with a "FOR SALE" sign still on her!) If I have, I'll most likely still be there daily driving either the wife's old Toyota, or something else simple, cheap, and paid off, LOL. And if there is the usual presence in the Star Cars area of The Hollers with their time machine, and/or any of the BTTF cast, I'll probably be hanging there quite a bit handing out promo cards and chatting people up about reserving cabins for the BTTF Cruise To End Parkinson's that's coming up later this year ;-)

I'll be there with my car for sure, but sticking with tradition, I'll only be at my car for ~25% of the show. I'd hate to deprive Lenny the opportunity of fielding questions again :wink:.

[Beachdrifter]

I'll be there (assuming no rain), it will be another great show I'm sure!

Anyone know where we will be parked at this year?

Nick,
Are you going to do the Rally? My granddaughter wants me to but if the others show up there may be a fight!!!

I had a lot of fun and think it's worth the money.

I can't do it this year; I've got family coming in town that week so consuming Saturday with the Carshow is about all I can manage.

Let me know how it is!

I just bought my first delorean last week and its in about 1000 pieces because I'm anal and everything has to be perfect.
Assuming I can get it all back together and restored by then I would love to go!

Well, the car is on the way to DMC FL to get the starting problem fixed. So I just registered for the Car Show on Saturday and the Road Rally on Sunday.

For any of y'all Florida folks who haven't heard, Tony at DMC Florida (and one of the long time sponsors of this show in Celebration each year too) is having his tenth anniversary open house day at his shop in Bonita Springs (near Fort Meyers) THIS Saturday 21 March, and I've not seen a whole lot of promotion on it. Tony has just bought back the original Prototype One DeLorean, that he'd restored a few years ago, and it will be there on display, as well as the opportunity to tour the whole shop. Besides, if you're already prepping your car to be it's best at Celebration, you might want to pick up some parts to finish it up while you're there. So if you can, please do try to do both events, like I am, and hope to see you there THIS Saturday. The original announcement was kind of buried in a thread about Proto One, but here's what Tony said there:

Thank you Josh,

Now that the all the dust has settled, I am pleased to announce that DMC-Florida has purchased the cars with the intent of keeping Prototype #1 long term.

The car will be on display in our Bonita Springs Showroom and the center piece of our 10th Anniversary Open House Saturday March 21st 2015.

Although the car is in the showroom, it is clearly labeled " For Display Only - Not For Sale"

I encourage all DeLorean Owners and enthusiasts who have not seen the car in person to make the trip when you can.

Best Regards,

Tony Ierardi

If you need to GPS it (or even old-school paper map it!), DMC Florida is located at 28701 Trails Edge Blvd, Bonita Springs, FL 34134, and the phone is (239)-495-8550. A link to their web site is here: http://dmcflorida.com/

I wish I had seen the thread. I live in pompano fl ( 2 hours away ) but have other commitments.

Well, apparently I'm totally screwed on attending the Celebration Exotic Car Festival this month :-(

Tried to get registered today and was told that they are full, and even waitlisted, for the entire show, and apparently have been for over three weeks now. Could have reluctantly skipped going to the DMC open house last month and redirected things to this instead, had I had even the slightest inkling that the event would (or even COULD - they have the whole freaking downtown for Christ's sake!) sell out, but never heard anything to that effect. :-(

Kind of ironic, as it was cash flow issues from the costs of unexpected parts & maintenance needed to get ready for THIS show in the first place that caused me to have to delay the registration until now. Guess I shouldn't have replaced that window motor until NEXT month, LOL :-(

If anyone here who already IS registered can no longer go, can you PLEASE contact me directly about possibly swapping me out for your registered place in the show field, if they even allow that?

I spent more money than I have to prep, turned down other opportunities on the same day for free admission at another non-car related event that I can no longer get into as my friends there have found someone else to work their booth, had to sweet talk the boss into giving me a day off (that is now too late to cancel), and I also lose what could have been possibly my best opportunity to get my car out in front of the eyes of countless potential impulse buyers at the show.

Feeling REALLY low now, can anyone give me something to feel better about?...

PM with suggestion sent.
