All set.

I usually take one of my buckets full of cleaning supplies so I can clean the car up before the show, but a normal bucket wouldn't fit in the trunk. I stopped by the local detail garage and grabbed this shorter bucket and some smaller spray bottles.

The weekend was a blur, so much so that I didn't snap any pics. Friday we went to Greer to the CCA museum, then to the hotel in Asheville. Had dinner with some friends Friday night, and drank too much beer in the hotel parking lot. Saturday met up with some friends Saturday morning and after coffee, took back roads up to the show. We had a little rain heading back to the hotel after the vintage, but not too bad and ended the evening with more parking lot beers. We had a few little issues with the car. There is a stumble/hesitation that intermittently shows up for a short time if the car heat soaks. We swapped the coil and it was great for the rest of the weekend until about 2 miles from home. The ac could use a recharge and it has a little pull to the left under heavyish braking. All and all I am pretty happen with how it performed. We have some mods and maintenance planned soon, but we might wait until the winter and do it all at once. For now it just needs a good cleaning.
Really love your E9! Definitely a set of BBS Super RS would look great on this.
