Hi, it looks like we might be doing the Disney thing next May/June, is there anything you guys could recommend taking in?? Bear in mind this'll be my first trip to the US, so it'll hopefully be all new to me. Any PT/G-Machine things happening. We're gonna be over for 14 days, probably do a week at the attractions & then try & take in other things, thanks guys

Make sure you go to Old Town off 92 on a Saturday night and catch the cruise in. I might even be there rolling around.

I am moving to Central Florida next month and will be about 20 minutes west of Disney.

Cool, maybe I'll be able to meet up with you. Good luck with the move.

I hope to travel around a bit so any other things of interest? How far are NPD & Classic industries from Kissimee ( hope to rent a place there, rather than stay in hotels)

NPD is about 1.5 hours or so depending on traffic (which there is a LOT of traffic on I-4).

There are tons of things to do all along that area from water parks, theme parkes, historical sites, race sites, guided tours, nature walks, etc. etc. etc.

Are there many car orientated things going on in Florida at this time??

Frank, how far are you from Kissimee?? maybe I could explain the 3 week outgassing to you? lol

LOL, As 69MyWay said, Old Town is every Saturday night with 400 to 600 cars all pre 72. This is only about 4 miles from the gate at Disney. I will have to think about other events this time of year. We are about 40 minutes from Disney, and you are very welcome to come by. in fact tonight I am meeting a mate from England I met on another board a few years ago. He is coming over for one month a year now.

I need to warn you though the temperature is blazing in those months. It would be a much more pleasant trip in fall or spring. From November to February, my top doesn't go up!

Funny enough, I may need that lesson as I had some solvent pop last week for the first time in 10 years. Got it straight though and the paint company is paying, their boo boo.

Thanks for the info, maybe we'd better rethink the time to come over if it's really hot, as I don't take to the heat too well being fair skinned, I just turn red & peel!!

Who's the guy from England I might know him if he's into cars? Thanks fro the offer of calling by, I'd love to take you up on the offer when we come over if thats ok?

Remember, you're gonna have to strip the paint off the car thats got outgassing problems, you can't just flat, seal & paint it

if you want any advice just mail me, have a good un.....Nigel

I am trying to remeber Jeff's last name. He is a Mopar nut, has a Pro Street 66 Satilite. Met him on another forum a few years ago. He wanted to come to world Street Finals here, so we invited him over. Now he and wife and kids come over at least once a year.
