Canuck Posted January 27, 2017 Author Posted January 27, 2017 ONLY 6 ROOMS LEFT!!!  Book ASAP if you are planning to attend the Western Meet. From what I hear Penticton hotels are completely full that weekend. It won't be long before the Summerland hotels  (including our hotel) start to get booked up.
Canuck Posted February 1, 2017 Author Posted February 1, 2017 Less than 5 months to go!! Â Here are some teaser photos. Â Â Â Â Â
pocobill7t1 Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 If anyone wants a shift detent plate brought to the show let me know and I will bring it.....SPECIAL SHOW $ 25.00 USD plus a beer.......or two  Hi there, I have some shift detent plates with hardware available for sale. These go into the horseshoe shifter and are a easy install. When installed these are like a racing shifter and you cant by pass a gear (embarrassing) They work on the turbo 400 or the turbo 350. they also have a neutral lock out as well. they are fun for racing or just playing around on a cruise. 32.00 USD or 42.00 for non FGMCC members. I will try to upload a video on how they work, pictures for now. shipping extra.
pocobill7t1 Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Finally booked the room at the Rosedale! Â party time..... 1

Canuck Posted March 2, 2017 Author Posted March 2, 2017 Only a few rooms left at the Rosedale Motel. Book soon if you have not already done so.
Canuck Posted March 3, 2017 Author Posted March 3, 2017 Here's a couple of images of the area surrounding the hotel.
Canuck Posted March 6, 2017 Author Posted March 6, 2017 I just registered both cars in the Peach City Beach Cruise. I held off a little while since I was not sure if I'd have the 70 interior put back together before the meet. I went ahead and registered both so now I have a deadline for getting the 70 ready.
Canuck Posted March 6, 2017 Author Posted March 6, 2017 I spoke with the organizers of the event and they are further ahead on pre-registration than they have ever been with over 400 already registered (the show has a maximum of 800 cars). It has been getting better every year and with Dennis Gage coming with his TV crew it has increased the popularity this year.
jays55 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Bummer, Looks like summer scheduling conflicts will cause me to miss my second Western Meet in a row...... I had booked a room in anticipation, but now won't need it. I will be cancelling my reservation. So, if anyone wasn't able to get a room, mine will be opening up soon.....  I will be there with you in spirit and planning to attend in 2018!
Canuck Posted March 17, 2017 Author Posted March 17, 2017 Sorry to hear you can't make it Jay. I'll see you in 2018!
Canuck Posted March 21, 2017 Author Posted March 21, 2017 Three Months to Go!!!!!!! Â Only 2 rooms left at the hotel. Book it if you need one. Â I finally got the 71 out for a cruise to Lakeshore Drive on Sunday where the car show will be held. The beach is already looking good! Â Â
Canuck Posted April 20, 2017 Author Posted April 20, 2017 9 weeks from today we'll be going for a nice long cruise around a few lakes, visiting a few viewpoints, having a nice lunch and stop for ice cream. Then Pizza at the hotel in the evening. Â For those of you attending without a Monte, there will be a few seats for passengers available so you can participate.
