Im hoping to see some picutres, posted of the show, & vendor area. I have heard, this is the "Largest Southeast Model car Show"..... Looking forward to seeing some photos.

I'm not sure where you heard that statement made but this show is a first time contest for a swap meet that has been ongoing for a couple of years now. Unfortunately there are no model contests in Florida that can boast the "largest Southeast model contest". That label would have to probably fall on the Atlanta NNL which is this coming weekend.

I really enjoyed the show, there were alot of great builds. Met some nice people, everyone seemed very enthusiastic and having a good time. Picked up some good deals from the swap meet. I hope the show will grow.

I forgot to bring a camera, did anyone out there who went to the show take any pictures?
