Should be a great show!Anybody going?Bringing a car?

I always go to MCACN. But no car. I don't have anything of that caliber. But I love the show!!!

Ed B

Haven't missed it since the first one, don't ever plan on missing one!

I may or may not be attending............

We might not be able to go as I'm in the middle of switching jobs and might not have the extra money we need to be able to go. hope I can atleast get their magazine and hope somebody takes cool car picks!

I'm sure we'll end up going for a day or two. No plans to bring a car, brought 55 Vin 1 last year. Then I got sick and lost my voice and couldn't be there for the debut!

Hope fully it's better for you this year!Great to hear you'll be there this year!

Didn't go last year because my knees were too messed up to walk that much. If my knees are healed up enough I'll try it this year. First replacement tomorrow.

C'mon grandpa, rent a scooter...

do they rent scooters there?

Yes they do.75.00 a day or wheel chairs 25.00 a day.They have to be ordered buy Nov.1

Can I do burnouts on it?

Maybe. I travel a lot for work and fly through Chicago a lot. Last year I was stuck in Chicago due to weather at home airport closing all flights for two days. So took an Uber over to the show. Great way to kill some stuck at airport time.

With you riding it might need more than 1 horsepower to do that...LOL..

Is it possible to take in the whole thing in one day? Thinking of flying in in the morning then flying home in the evening after the show. Looks like it's pretty close to the airport.

If we went we would've been there in the early morning enjoy the day,see what we could,stay in hotel over night and left the next morning so I'm thinking it possible.
As far as a drag race scooter goes I'm thinking alter the wheel base or add more wait to the as$ end,wheely bars and a drag shoot with the word The Rascall on them!Lol And away you go! ,stay

Yes, if you are there early.

Here is pictures from every MCACN. And a very good idea of what to expect.

Thanks Ryan,very cool!

Ok, to be truthful, I help with the show on multiple levels. I'll be there starting on Wednesday already.

The show is right next to O'Hare airport. In reality, you can take a shuttle from the airport right to the hotel or convention center and never go outside.

It's a great time to be sure, and we haven't even published all the special displays yet.

Great big pic!That helps to give people a idea of the show.

Looks like we will be going!Thought about driving there but I'm no spring chicken anymore!Lol

Its on my bucket list to attend this show. Not sure its possible this year though.

Being a Mopar guy... you are going to want to come this year.

Show is the weekend before my other knee replacement. First one went well, I might make it.

Me and the usual crew will be there again this year. Gonna be a big one for us since we are doing an unveiling on the Lemon Twist yellow 70 6 bbl road runner convertible resto and my 69 Super Stock Hemi Super Bee raced by Wally Booth will be shown for the 1st time.

Got a car invited for the first time so going again but will actually have a car there this year.

Great to hear guys!More cool cars I havnt seen before!

when checking the official homepage I can't find much of special mopar content yet despite a Charger special.

Can you tell more what kind of Mopars might be to expect ?

It is not around the corner for me

Carsten

Ryan aka Devil on this sight might be able to shed more light on this...I think he mentioned the 70 RTS caravan cuda would be there and the custom builder who built it,Chuck Miller will be there.He also built/designed the sonic cuda,as well as other cars..It's been sounding like a great show I might make it too but ofcourse plans fell through I actually like not working anymore since retirement so..not going but fully enjoying retirement.Atleast IL get their show mag in the mail!

Evolution of the Dodge Charger Presented by the Wellborn Musclecar Museum.
When Dodge introduced the all new and sleek Charger in 1966, the Muscle Car world be forever changed. '68 brought the "Coke Bottle" styling that would be instantly recognized and would last last until 1970. In '71, an entirely new Charger would be introduced and continue for several years. Join us as we feature an evolutionary display with prime examples of the first three generations of the Dodge Charger.

That sounds cool!The Wellborne collection looks great!And i saw their 71 charger collection a few years ago at Chryslers at Carlisle.

There is a bunch of Mopar stuff going on this year. I'll get a full list here tomorrow.

thanks Ryan

Carsten

Can't wait to get their magazine in the mail!

Here's the basic overview of the car.

Very cool Ryan thanks!Do they have anything that shows exactly what mopars will be there?I think everyone's interested to find out what mopars will be there.

MCACN facebook page is showing some cars that will be there as well.

Let me just say this, between Bob and Ryan, there are always LOTS of top notch Mopars at MCACN (Ryan's being "top notch" in a Barn Find kind of way). Bob Ashton is a Mopar and AMC guy so they are very well represented at MCACN. This isn't your typical all make show that has maybe 5% Mopars. At MCACN at least 1/3 of the cars are Mopars.

If you have the means to go to MCACN, just do it. You won't be disappointed!!

Ed B

Yes, I'm finishing up the maps for the show, so I know were everything goes.

There is a ton of Mopars this year, we expanded Mopar Alley. We expanded Barn Finds.... ugh.

Wellborn's evolution of the Charger is right in the middle

Class of 68 and Class of 73 has a bunch of Mopars.

The van area has Mopars.

It is usually more heavy on the Mopars then anything else.

We just dropped the entire MCACN Magazine 2023 online. It has everything going on this year.

MCACN MAGAZINE

Great stuff Ryan thanks for all you're hard work!

Carsten
