Default SCR8 - Maco's

Since Motion1 & Smooth plan on having their Motion Maco there at SCR8, and we now have another very nice one out in California, we (www.MakoShark2.com) are thinking about having a Maco reunion combined with the SCR8 reunion... since it is in middle of the US.

So far, these are the people tenativly planning on going...

http://www.makoshark2.com/2sharks/
http://www.makoshark2.com/wayne_fields/
http://www.makoshark2.com/johnnymaco/
http://www.makoshark2.com/motion1/
http://www.makoshark2.com/tony2ta/
http://www.makoshark2.com/cars/73corvette/

So far we are just in the "planning" stages... any thoughts about it?

Those are some Very Powerful looking Cars!
I wouldn't mind seeing them in Person.
I recently talked to Mr.Rosen,and he remarked to me how much he really enjoyed speaking to us all at the SCR6 Dinner Banquet.He said he thought us being a Yenko crowd,we wouldn't ask him as him many pertinent questions about MOTiON.
Needless to say after 3 hours of him &amp; his Crew responding to us,he knew he was in the right place,&amp; people.He told me he would enjoy a return visit,if need be.

Just Wondering... what are some signs of an original Shark verses a Reproduction Eckler's or Paragon kit?

I have NEVER heard of a Paragon Mako Shark replica. Every time I've heard of an Eckler's Mako replica, it ends up being just a simple tilt front end that has an almost stock appearance.

The Motion Maco has a distinct front &amp; rear. Just look at the Owner's Pages menu at the different sources (Silva, Motion, Bohannon &amp; 1 Geiger) to see the differences.

I think the Kenneth Haines car was just a Eckler's tilt front-end.

Silva is the originator of the Maco body style. The Silva kit was about 13 different pieces. The Motion molds changed that to 2 pieces (the front &amp; the back). The Bohannon mold changed the front dips. I have only seen one Geiger, and it is just very different.

My thought on SCR8 would be that it's a "Supercar Reunion", so i would think any supercar of any kind would be gladly excepted. Yes even mopars
