The Smokey Mountain Nationals are focused on the Advanced Design (AD) trucks and since I drive an Art Deco 1946 Chevy I thought it would be prudent to ask if my truck would eligible to register for the show, probably not for judging but at least allowed on the grounds for a good parking spot. I did mention that I would be attending with the Southern Stovebolters group.

Here is the first response: "Archie, this is Dave. I haven’t heard of the Southern Stovebolters group. How many are coming?" My response: "Stovebolt.com with about 23,000 followers, the Southern group of about 25 has met the past two years in Lebanon TN. Coming to you this year from southern states. They would like to park as a group." Then Dave introduced himself and supplied a phone # for contact the I will PM Tuts 59. "Well we are honored and will have a special place for your group! Thanks for thinking of us. Can i announce on the FB group page?"

From this point, I will leave it to Tuts 59 to make any arrangements for our group and information about Stovebolt.com for announcements on their FB page.
