Saturday night dinner: Every year many of the attendees go out to dinner on Saturday night at a local restaurant. This is a great opportunity for the collectors and dealers to socialize after a day at the show. Sometimes as many as 50 people show for the dinner. 2010 location tentatively will be Orazio's Restaurant in Clarence. There is room for approximately 50 people.

Display tables are free, so come and share your custom models with fellow enthusiasts! There will be a small entrance fee for those wishing to enter the competition. For people with only a couple of models for display, we will have limited room in glass display cases to exhibit your models. Bring your models, we need your help to make this show the equivalent of Model Show Europe with hundreds of custom built models on display.

Previous years have shown the unveiling of new models and prototypes including the much anticipated Bucyrus International BE 495B shovel, Sherwood Model's Euclid C6, Towsleys Collectibles Bucyrus 49-R drill, Oshkosh models, Manitowoc 4100 crane. What new models will be displayed or available this year?

This is a show that just has to be experienced. Come watch the working models dig and bulldoze through the sand pits. Find those old or new models for your collection. See the scratch built and customized models from master craftsmen. This is the show everyone will be talking about. Already collectors from Europe, Asia and across the US and Canada have told us they are planning to attend.

(Some diorama ideas are: trucking depots, highway construction, quarries, demolitions, mining, building erections, laying of pipelines, canal building, dam building, the ideas are endless. Have fun, be creative, show off your talents. Displaying models or dioramas also gets you early entry into the show)

Message from the promoters:

Friends, collectors, enthusiasts,

We invite you to the 7th Annual IMCATS Show. We look forward to catching up with all of you who attended in the past and to meet new people who are coming to the show for the first time. For those of you who have not attended an IMCATS show yet, the show is a great time of meeting with fellow collectors, seeing some great custom work, filling in your collection, seeing new prototype models, meeting manufacturers and a chance to spend some great quality time with people who share your passion for construction and truck models. No where else other than at Model Show Europe in the Netherlands can you experience this.

For the enthusiasts and the kid in all of us, this show is the chance to see many of the machinery seen building highways, building sky scrapers, building bridges, digging in the mines and quarries on a smaller scale. Many of the large mining machines many of us will never be able to see except on TV or at this show in miniature. This show is like the Discovery Channel coming to life in miniature.

Several years ago we set out to develop an annual event to showcase the custom works of model makers here in North America. Our goal was to establish a show on par with the renowned "Model Show Europe". We ask for your help in reaching our goal. This show is the opportunity to share the appreciation of your work with fellow modelers, collectors and enthusiasts. We ask that you come, participate and bring your custom work to display. An optional competition will be held for those desiring to compete for prizes.

Thanks for your support in making this show a reality,

Brandon Lewis
