    I just looked at a larger pic of that building and it is great. On the top center, that's an actual bas relief sculpture of a plane, I think, flying over ocean waves .

    Those Lincoln caps are looking good.

    It is not fair taking pictures of fat guys rolling over trying to get up.....LOL!!!
    Thanks for posting the pics....I guess?

    We had a great weekend on our way to Delano car show (Wichita) we hit some
    shops on the way up. Jeff Meyers in Ark City Ks was our first stop. Jeff is working
    on soom kool stuff for Salina.

    After a tour we all kruized to a local diner for bite to eat. It was kool to watch his Caddy
    cruizin the streets.

    Then to JD's house to look at his current roadster project. The frame work is killer.
    Our final stop was Yblock's house What a day and we hadn't made it to the
    show yet.

    Delano was a very koool show mark it on your calendar for next year.

    Travis took some killer photos while riding shot gun with Dustin (Hvychvy)

    We had some kool quotes this weekend. We took our time so we stopped a lot and for
    the first five minutes, the first thing that Travis would say was "WHAT!! What did you say?"

    The second kool line is on the way home we stopped at toots in Howard,Ks to get a bite
    to eat and Dustin got out of his Hot Rod and was checking the bottom radiator hose. He
    looked back at travis and said " its not anti freeze, so it must be oil that is hitting you in
    the face."

    Dustin (Hvychvy)won one of the kool trophies that were giving away. He won the Best "Rat Rod"
    trophy. His Hot Rod is far from a rat rod, it 100% Hot Rod. Here is a picture of Dustin
    posing with the award.

    Hey Mike,

    Your right the building has a large wow factor...

    If your into Kustoms you have to love old art Deco buildings. When
    you drive up to the Museum your first impression is over whelming

    Wichita is blessed to have such a kool place.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

    Thanks for the entertainment. I'll never miss another Delano show. It was very kool!
    The location and the culture was awesome. How many times did you start up the
    "Trixie T" She sure sounds good barking out of those krazy pipes....

    Happy Trails,

    Mick
     
  14. Looks like you guys had a great time. I haven't been back to Kansas is way too long. I's like to make it down for one of the runs. It looks like a gas.
    Do you guys know about the Beaumont Hotel? Airplanes can taxi right up to the parking lot from the landing strip. it's on the way to Howard.
     
  15. Love seeing your Merc in action Mickey.
     
  16. That's not just any plane, it's the Spirit of St. Louis.

    I've driving by the hotel 100 times just hadn't stopped to check it out. I almost
    stopped on our way back but we were trying to get home to beat the heat. I'm
    gonna have to stop next time.

    Not sure they still do , was a big deal years ago , i'll find out . We used to fly over from Beech for lunch once in a while. Just talked to one of the guys and he said they were still doing it last year and thinks they still do it today, grass strip and all.
