I'll not be able to bring my '66 C10, but will drive my '02 Silverado instead. I've wanted to come for years. I was holding out to bring the '66, but decided to come without it to enjoy the trucks. Maybe some day I'll trust the Ol'66 to make it. I'll arrive sometime Friday evening and return home Saturday evening. See everyone then.

When you pull into the park, just ask anyone where the Stovebolter's are. They know us and treat us real good. BTW, the show usually has over 200 trucks entered and we should have around 10 to 15.
Mine will be on the hook behind a F-250. Don't expect much though, and you won't be disappointed.

It all goes to charity and if you are nice , you can park next to my F-250. Just don't let any rust fleas jump over on my truck, it has enough fleas now. Where are you staying at Friday evening?
Most of us will be at the Econo lodge in North KC.
