At this years AMO Nationals in Gettysburg PA I was approached by a member of the selection committee for the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance. He asked if I would be interested in bringing my car to the show in 2018 and gave me his card. I hadn't heard of the show but after looking it up online I see it is one of the most prestigious shows on the East Coast and would definitely by a cool experience attending. I sent in my application yesterday and have already heard back that my car has been accepted! Yes there will be an AMC at one of the fanciest shows in the Nation!!! If you're in that neck of the woods the show is June 1-3 with the American cars being shown/judged on the Saturday. Come on by and say hi!
The host hotel is the Delmar with rooms starting at $389/night...I won't be staying there. The BUFFET dinner Saturday night is $185/plate...I won't be eating there. If you're looking for me I'll be in the parking lot with a pizza and a cooler of beer. Now I need to start working on my list of stuff to do to the car! I guess the new trailer will get a test on the 5000 mile haul east!

lol thanks!
I just thought it was cool that an AMC product will be there at such a "significant" show! The entry application doesn't even give Canada as an option. I mentioned this to the show manager and she said I am the first Canadian car they have ever invited!

Congrats on being picked. I was just looking at the show info online. Am 30 minutes away in New York. Concours judging is a killer. Had my ADAM-12 Matador at the Hemmings Concours a couple years ago. Got my a## kicked but had a great time. If i dont see you there, good luck.

Congrats. I would go , but I doubt they would let me in. If I could at least sneak in the parking lot, maybe I could see your car through the fence!
