This one has been going on for 2 or 3 years now and I've heard good things. If you are in Arizona at all this weekend, stop by Tombstone and check out the Southwest...

I'm trying real hard to get my T running for that.

I've put in the Firewall, Steering & Shifter, modified the Dash, etc...

Right now the list is down to rust repairs on the 1/4s, putting in the Floor, Gastank, hooking up some Wiring, Taillights, and the Windshield.

See you there ( or not...

)

**jerry** · 05-30-2007, 04:18 PM

Thank you Ryan!

I've been lucky enough to make all of them so far. It started as a reliablilty run and into a combination run and show/party! Definitely not one to miss!!!

There has been something different wrong with my car during this event for the last three times. This time, I have a shot trans in the Buick and a bent control arm on the Merc.....Maybe next year.

**desertdroog** · 05-31-2007, 10:09 AM

I am trying to fanagle a ride from Phoenix to Tucson to Tombstone (or in the worst case from Tucson to Tombstone) as my 54 is still getting interior work done. Jerry if you have room for me let me know. I know it is short notice, but just looking to see what is available.

Mike · 05-31-2007, 10:57 AM

I always hear that this is a really fun gig.

Unfortunately, it always seems to be the same weekend as the Antique Nationals and that's where I'll be.

Hot Rod Ron · 05-31-2007, 11:17 AM

Will not be there as there was death in the family this week and family takes over. Like Jerry have been there for everyone and its a blast. Greaemonkey does a hell of a job putting it on. Hope the turn out is even bigger than last year.

1950ChevySuburban · 05-31-2007, 12:42 PM

I can't go, I have a standing appointment to get the Burb cut and buffed. Maybe next year.
My condolences, Ron. Yer right, family always comes first.
