Since it appears the world is going back to normal-

Does anyone know if this show is going to continue or is it officially over for this once great show. I want to say that this was what was left of the slant six club and these shows started happening in the mid 80's The first one I went to was in 1988 in Lafayette.

I hope its not over this used to be such a large show used to be nearly 100 cars showing up and one of the biggest swap meets too.

Having a 2021 Bay Area SL6 show will depend on if the Redwood City Marina will let us use their parking lot and rest rooms like they did before Covid-19.

Sad to report that the Port of Redwood City is still under COVID "lock-down" restrictions and does not want us using their parking lot or restrooms for the 2021 SL6 car show.
"Check with us next year" where the only encouraging words they had for us.

After 35+ years of doing a SF Bay Area Slant Six Meet we have reached a "transition point", mostly because the main organizer of the event, John Moran, passed away along with the difficulty caused by the pandemic.

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=65248

I feel there is still strong SL6 interest and old membership in the area that will support a nice meet but it looks like we will need to find new organizer(s) and a new location to do this show.
We still have about 200+ names on our mailing list but list updates stopped in 2019 when John passed away.
Let Todd E. or myself know if you want to help keep this show going.
