truck nats maggie valley
 

has any one looked into where to stay yet ?

Re: truck nats maggy valley
 

Charlie has the host motel listed as the Quality Inn. If you check out the tourist info for lodgeing in Maggie Valley it has the largest number of rooms listed. There is a motel right across the road from the show but I think you can safely say that it has not been remodeled since the early 60s! It may be very nice, clean and even cheap but my wife said she wasn't staying there:lol: . I haven't really checked into lodgeing any further. I may try and find a cabin with a Jacuzzi nearby.

hey when is the truck nats?

Re: truck nats maggy valley
 

Shouldn't have a problem finding one. I may drive up on Sat. the 6th. http://www.autoshows.cc/shows.php?show=chevy

Re: truck nats maggy valley
 

I checked through the Quality Inn website and I can't find a room cheaper than $80. On Charlie's website he stated he got it for $49.

What's the name of the hotel across the street from the event, Asa?

I just need a bed to sleep in.

Re: truck nats maggy valley

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Anything has got to be better than the show hotel from last year, it
was the worst room dollar for dollar of anywhere I have ever stayed,
Rob just get all the info you can, and if anyone will do a group rate.

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

i will get everything i can find and ask about group rates and if they will let me i will get pics of the rooms too

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

You :metal:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

i just tryin to help :)

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Glad someone is, anything is better than last year, the wife almost
left me when she saw the room, she said we paid how much for it?

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

was it that bad ?

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Well it was $99 a night, and it had a jacuzzi in the living room area next
to the bed, it was shaped like a heart, and it looked like it was installed
during the 70's, I guess it could have been worse, just not what I had
expected to get, the regular room rate was like $129 or $149, that was
the show special, I;m just spoiled I guess since I always stay in Cabins.

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

well i will look for cabins to :) i think the wife is wantin to get a cabin

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

My wife prefers them, also how far is PF from there :confused:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

roughly 100 miles or so
you will be closer to cherokkee than pf i think

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Damn, she was hopping it was closer, so she could go outlet shopping,
not sure if she will drive an hour & a half to go shopping or not, oh well.

Re: truck nats maggie valley

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

ttt for the evenin bunch

Re: truck nats maggy valley
 

Bryan I think the name was the Holiday motel. Check the address on Charlie's flyer and compare it to the address of the motel. I am pretty sure the motel's info said it was across the street from the festival grounds.

Re: truck nats maggie valley

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Hey Eric, I may end up needing a 67/68 hood also, no money for a cowl right
now, so keep your eyes open for a complete clip now, instead of just parts :(

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

I have a hood,but it has a few dents in it,no rust or bondo...and its white...

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

And the gmc stepside,may have good stuff..and the 68 K/10 may also have it...I will get them soon...when i get some $$ back in here

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

K, color means nuthing to me, lol, just quality, gonna scrap my 72 front
clip, or sell it for pennies on the dollar, if all goes well it may leave the
show rolling w/ the 68 clip on it, I luv doing parking lot body mods :lol:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

I will keep you updated on what i can get between now and maggie valley...Who knows you may be right:crazy:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

I have a feeling that this is going to take a little longer than George's Hood Bumpers last year. :)

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

If all goes well, yes, I'm gonna change the front clip at the show :lol:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

I never go without my toolbox and gloves! Let me know if I can help. Make sure you spray down all your bolts with PB. It would suck to break one off and have that halt your progress.

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Never fear, I will bring some duct tape and zip ties :lol:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

And you may want to bring some straps..if i find you a front clip...:lol: :but: Thats right,you are going to swap it out in the parking lot:metal:

No i am going to push and get the 69 rollback done,and round up a load of parts before then...to take to the show...

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

Well I was hoping to get a very small partial $ credit for my 72 clip :lol:

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

I can do that...

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

There are alot of cute little motels.I didn`t see anything shabby.I think I stayed at the Holiday Hotel,I liked it.You probably have to go out by I-40 to find a national hotel.Be sure to see the Wheels Through Time museum there.I posted some pics in Misc.Pics.

Re: truck nats maggie valley
 

For those with some time to kill. There is some nice trout fishing in that area. Cherokee has their own one day license and some good size trout. Those with NC license can find all types of creeks from wild, catch and release, hatchery supported, and delayed harvest. There are also some pay trout ponds. Enjoy.
