The Greenville, SC Eurofest has opened applications for showing your wonderful shiny, modified and/or restored version of a great Swedish product.

Registration to show a car is $75, pre sale day passes $10, day of the show $15.
This event is pretty upscale from cars-n-coffee and local shows. While not Amilia Island or Pebble Beach it is only a small step down and attracts lots of high end cars including a number of million dollar super cars and a number of serious efforts at making Volvo's perfect.
It is held on the golf course at the Embassy Suites Resort in Greenville and has a number of associated things to do including sessions with BMW and Michelin both US headquartered in Greenville. This is a beautiful venue and a day long event.
This is my fourth year to attend. Winning first place in the Volvo Class my first year with the V8 Volvo sorta got me hooked. Michael Yount is a multiyear first place winner, last year with his LS3 conversion of an '82 242.
The Saab folks stuffed the ballot box 2 years ago by an aggressive effort to get owners to show up and we should not let that happen again. Volvo's and Saab's are in a Swedish Class together.
Many of the TurboBrick forum regulars from the southeast will be there either showing their cars or just visiting with other Volvo nuts.
I will commit to being there with the Brand New Bertone if that means anything after having to cancel two years in a row due to unfinished restoration issues.
Please indicate you interest in attending in this thread and forward to other TBers that you communicate with. Perhaps we can get a real showing of Volvo's there.
