az57chevy Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Both are on my list to walk through this weekend. Last year Chapman seemed to have a falling out with the club hosting the Sweetheart Show so guess that's why they moved away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extender32 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Can't make either one this weekend. I have an appointment to get some new shoes installed Sat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not ever heard this OK, this comes from a very reliable source, me! The morning of the show the venders started showing up and the gate was locked. A few of them went inside Chapman Chevrolet and some a-hole said we decided yesterday not to sponsor the event anymore. So, it had to be cancelled because they didn't want to move all the new cars to accommodate the car show anymore. So, Coulter stepped up and said they would host it from now on. There you have it, Chapman really SUCKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnU Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 That's a real "bridge burner" while at the same time slap a lot of perspective customers (club members) hard! I was wondering last year how a Caddy dealer has a Vette show. BabBob comes thru again with total clarity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnU Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 Here's some pictures from the Fountain Hills Concours. Much larger then last year. Another "island" was added to hold all the cars. First one is for Tom....A Studebaker Speedster packing an LS motor and modern suspension and 4 wheel disks....this one is NICE! While we are on upgraded cars, How about a Packard running a fuel injected big block with all up graded suspension and interior...very sweet package!!!! Nice looking yellar Vette with yellar wheels! Repo Morgan with Harley clone motor next to a 2005 Aero 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
