Is there going to be a new thread for the 2020 HB event?
There is now, you just started it.
I know it is April 25th, and is suppose to be Epic as it's the 25th anniversary. It's also only 4 months away!? I love this show, and it totally screwed up my mojo when it didn't happen last year. Looking forward to making the trip down for 2020.

This will be my first time. Does anyone know the schedule and best hotels to stay at? My wife and I will be coming from Fairport NY.
We most likely will be staying several days to participate and do some site seeing.
If something needs to be done or we can contribute to the food fund.
I have a printing business so I can print up signs , banners, decals if needed. I don't print fabric.
Really excited about this event.
I'm really looking forward to this event. I went to the 2018 event which was a major influence on my decision to buy my kit. I was really disappointed there wasn't one last year. My car (Mk IV) won't be ready by then but I already have it on the calendar and awaiting further details.
Factory Five usually has an agreement with the Shorebreak hotel. It's right on PCH and a block from main Street.

I plan on going. My car won’t be painted but I might trailer it
Made reservations at the Shorebreak Hotel and prices are decent. Any update on the schedule of events?
The wife and I went to the 2018 show (right after receiving my kit) and gave me a lot of ideas and met some really great people. I can't wait to show off my new baby at this one. It has been an incredible journey getting to this point and we are looking forward to seeing everyone!
I'll be out of town - again.
I've missed the past THREE years and was hoping to go this year. I planned a vacation specifically because I thought there was a conflicting car show at Main Street the weekend of the 25th and the Factory Five show was alleged to be a week earlier.
You guys know that technically, I started this show, right? (Please cry me a river.)
It was one year after the Replica Show at Knott's Berry Farm (2006?) I suggested that after the show a bunch of us drive to Huntington Beach and park in the lot by Main Street. Maybe 15 of us went. The next year we did the same, but had an area roped off (I didn't coordinate the roping off, was it David?) I think it may have been by the 3rd year Factory Five ditched the Replica Show altogether and sanctioned their own show at H.B.
Eddie, 'Ol friend, I remember those days well. I still have the video Sergio made of us all cruising down Beach Blvd to get to the parking lot on the pier side . . . Hell, I still have video of some girls signing your car at that very lot.
Sorry you are going to miss it again, would have been nice to see ya, I know I owe you a beer or two . . . maybe I'll make the Stone Brewery trip this year if I haven't already missed it.
Stay well my friend . . .

Looks like Dave cancelled Huntington Beach along with the Factory Five Open House this morning. Sad news.

Very sad! I was really looking forward to getting out of the house for the first time in many months...
Oh well, I guess this gives me more time to get ready for the show.
