Big Power Meet 2014, Vasteras, Sweden 3-5 July

[ringram]

Yes, Im going to book in Aug, because it only allows 1 year ahead.

There was 3 rooms with multi beds, but you can also drop a air matress in the kitchen and lounge, then you would have 5 rooms.
At a push someone adventurous could do the same in the laundry. I think Ill expropriate Gurmeet's room for next year.

Gareth also said he might pitch a tent or sleep on the tray of his ute. Lots of options. There is a large lawn.
The rental is rated for 6 occupants and the owner is next door. So thats probably close to max. There are 2 toilets, but only 1 shower.

There are loads of chairs and wifi, though its very weak and feeble. Better than nothing though. Freezer and fridge for beers etc.

The holdens got plenty of attention. My camaro faded into the background. Even through I cleaned it

The only cars that stood out where a few of the concours ones as well as the rat junk.

Ill probably take the vxr8 next year. The gearing suits the autobahn better. You want something that cruises 100mph+ to keep up with Gareth.

as it will probably be something from the late sixties, early seventies, I doubt it will cruise at 100+ - maybe in a straight line but not round a bend

Sounds like prime muscle car era.
Pro touring stuff looks good. Plenty of t56 conversions for them.

Nice big block camaro or chevelle, or impala even depending on the space you have.
Loads of nice impala's at the show.

I'm thinking something like this:

Looks well sorted for the price. Im so tempted, only problem is Im on holiday next week for 2 weeks so its likley sold by the time Im back. I was thinking of flying over one weekend to check it out.

Looks very good.

That is outside my price range, landed in the uk and registered, I reckon it would be about £28-30k. Plus I'm pretty much set on either a nova or a Tri-5

These are my "halo" cars:
Chevy Nova




or a 1956 Chevy Bel Air with LS1

[gsd2000]

After the last trip I would really like a 56 belair

Ok I booked same place again, though looks like upstairs this time. They say the limit is 3 Im not sure on the situation as it looks a tad different.
You can cancel right up to the date pretty much.
It might be sensible to book another place as well if we have a good sized crew going.

Check this place out http://www.booking.com/hotel/se/elevgra-nd-1.en-gb...

Same distance from the show, but in another direction. We may need to split the convoy up. Id recommend booking asap. This is/was available today and similar config/spec to what we had. Sleeps 5, £300 for Wed-Sun 2-6th July.

I might book into the campsite in the show

[gsd2000]

I was informed by a few people that the campsite is mental, and that if I entered I would be mentally scared for life
