Anyone else planning to attend? INFO HERE

I'll be there on Saturday. In my truck, if I can get the carb rebuilt by then, else in the Toyota. I don't think I can afford the 200 mile round trip at the current 6 mpg and high-priced gas.

Great show. No trophies, just a bunch of old school rods, customs, trucks. Nothing newer than 1963.

The thing I like best about this show is the relatively high ratio of non small block Chevy engines. Lots of 1st gen Hemis, Nail Head Buicks, Olds Rockets, Caddy V8s, flathead and Y Block Ferds, some GMC 302s and even Stovebolt engines.

But my favorite 2 years ago was Bombshell Betty. With a 320 inch Buick straight 8 it has set six land speed records. Last was 165 MPH at Bonneville 13 years ago.
