The shop tour is on FRIDAY.
The cruise to Helen is Saturday, after the show... we will probably leave for Helen at 4pm, but we'll talk about a definite time on Saturday.
After the show, I need to go home and unload the truck and grab a shower... and the departure time of the last vendors is always hit-and-miss. Sometimes they're gone by 1, sometimes it's 2:30.
My home is just two exits down from the track, so my travel time is short.
Jim, the owner of Vintage Metal Works, is a hell of a guy--and I am virtually certain that if any Saturday Bolters would like to kill an hour or two at his place between the end of the swap meet and the Helen cruise, he'd oblige you with a shop tour.
In fact, another guy who contacted me about the show is coming in on Friday for it, and he knows Jim and is planning on dropping in Saturday afternoon too.
If anybody has any questions, please don't hesitate to give me a call! (706) 424-5035, or shoot me an email at
