Whoa, recovery time, is Bobb putting us to work on the trucks? The 19th is good. Monroe is on the 18th and 19th, but the 18th is the best day for that. The two month weather forecast calls for sun, with a slight chance of rain, and no chance of snow.

Hy Guys, it looks like the 19th is winning so far. How about some of you guys who have never come out or have only come once???

Hy 1958GMCNut, I've given up on the idea of taking a truck. When my two current other people projects are finished, my projects come first!

Hey all you " lurkers "......perfect opportunity to introduce yourselves to the gang - we don't bite !
Bobb has an amazing collection of old trucks, and is a wealth of knowledge for all of us interested in the hobby.
All the guys are friendly.
Doesn't matter if your truck is under construction, up on blocks, or finished.

Hey Bobb,
The date is circled and I'll bring the '54 barring and set backs.
I am hoping to take in Monroe also there Super55, since I won't be making it to Portland this year.

Hy Guys, this is just a bump to try and get the attention of some of the people I know live in this area and have never attended any of our events. Please people come on out and join us, we are a good group of people, and we have a common interest. My pickanick gives you the oppotunity to take your vehicles on a bit of a run, either through the countryside, or on the freeway. A few of the guys have come in a "convoy" through the countryside each year, and they have fun, and support each other if there are any problems. Once you get here you get to eat whatever you brought to cook on the barby, relax and BS with everybody, tour my rust exhibit, play horseshoes, pretty well whatever you like. So come on guys, come out and meet us!

John...Boyd and I will hook up with you guys in Abbotsford. Not sure what Dave or Trev are planning on yet. We usually run out Vye Rd thru Yarrow for a cruise in the country, but can certainly run up the # 1 as well.
