I know this is early, but it is such a good time, it's already on my mind.
2018
The Reunion is always the weekend after Labor day.
Anybody know how many years it has been going on.

12th or it could be be 13th.
John and Peg, I believe were at the 10th, and that was at least two Reunions ago.
Hope you and Victoria can make it this year, we really miss you.

It looks like Sept 7-9, 2018.

I'm "planning" on being there as always, as long as life doesn't get in the way again.


Another quality post.

Windy, use a smart phone to map a route off the freeways and enjoy the trip. I hope to see you there.

They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

I'm in Lee's Summit just outside KC with a '40 KC and plan to join in. What's the best day to be there? Got a neighborhood show on Saturday but I think its more important to be at this one if Saturday is the best day.

Will be good to see you again Joe!!

Welcome to the Stovebolt page and we look forward to meeting you.
Saturday is by far the best day. The show usually has over 200 trucks entered of all kinds.
Also several contests all day long and a live band late Saturday.

We'll have the Stovebolt awning setup and most of us hang around there get to now each other.
Well also have a few short how-to seminars, group photo and then the Stovebolt meeting.
So bring some lawn chairs.
She show hosting club treats us real good and we get our own area to park together.
A lot more info will follow when we get closer to the event.

I'm planning now on going to the Homecoming. Start reading about it and some of the activities that go on there.

My first year was 2008 the truck was finished but it had issues and I drove my PT Cruiser. Planning for this year, hope to have the MPG issues solved.
