I love it about Wednesday when I start seeing more cars driving around town. I get to cruise up S. Congress on my way to work in the mornings, and seeing the hot rods and customs out is sweet...too bad I have to work all day today...
How big is it(LSR)? How many cars thoughtout the weekend? Is it worth a drive from Canada? 1996 miles one way....
It's right at 2400 miles from my front door and I plan on it in 2013 after I retire and have time to do the trip without having to mak 800 miles a day on the way down and turn right around and do 800 miles a day on the way back. I've done that twice and it isn't fun anymore. Not for roundup but the Inlaws are in Central Texas.
Can't believe you have to man the booth by yourself Ryan....? Oh.. and by the way... when ever I'm sitting in my '32 ...I'm in the "Hot Rod Capital" of the world... Enjoy..... and someday I'll make it...
Chevys in for paint and chrome, shoebox is getting a new tranny as we speak. So I'm stuck in Gainesville again. But my cars are getting closer to being finished. I'll make it next year for sure! Party hard for me and take lots of PIX.
well didn't get my engine and trans back in time to take the '28, so it's me on the old shovelhead... fuck what am i saying. i can't think of a better way to get there, park at the front door, check out some rods, some chicks, drink some beer, hang with my friends... life is good!!!!!
Ryan, the shirts are bad ass- looking forward to your posts throughout the weekend. Gonna try and make it next year....Uncle Sam(Obama) had me a little to leery of spending the dough this year.
Have to work Friday But i'll goining Saturday Morining leaveng around 6:30 or 7.am to see all the stuff don"t know if the trucks going to make it i try finish it but will see
Hey, we have friends there who have travelled over 6000 miles to be there. I hear it's a bit of a hoot. Ha ha ha. Hi Keith and Paula!
I have been to tha last 5 shows, lived about 50 miles away. This summer I moved to New Hampshire. 89 deg in Austin today, predicted 12 inches of snow here. What the hell have I done. I would give anything to be back in good old Texas. Feeling pretty depressed at missing this. Have only seen one traditional rod and one custom in 6 months here. Will definately be looking forward to the picks.
I know that T E X A S is a big state but I cannot believe all the folks from Texas posting that they are NOT going. It is about 1200 miles 1 way for me ... but I am planning on going to Austin for the 35th Deuce Reunion later this year. I had to choose from the LA Roadster Show in LA , the 35th Deuce Reunion in Austin or the Lone Star Roundup ( Austin also ) ... for this years long trip. I went to LA Roadster Show last year, 35th Deuce Reunion this year ... so the Lone Star Roundup will be 2012 ...
