Default A visit at the home of BobK

I am on a road trip summer vacation to Minnesota and Wisconsin as well as the Iola swap meet. Along the way, I was fortunate enough to be invited to stay overnight at the home of Bob and Maggie K. My favortie brother in law is along for the ride and we are having a blast.
You can read about our trip to Bob's here:

I was kind of disappointed that the Canadian Pontiac valvecover that Bob extorted from me isn"t on his wall of fame. However I did see a 54 Stude wheel disk that I could use as a spare & a nice 60 Merc. grille that would look great in my 59 El Camino. Bob contact me for shipping instructions. P.S. very nice collection.

There's no room on the walls since 1999... be happy it made it into his house!

Oh yes it is Robert, look at picture number 12, top row second one from the left. It's a side angle shot so it don't show up too good.

Paul it was a treat having you and L spend the night, (Maggie say's you guys know how to make beds). You are welcome anytime.

With the lifestyle that you live, it would be very expensive but I'd like to help you out.
