    Just curious to see if any HAMB members were going to Springfield MO this coming week May 22-25. We gave up on Knoxville this year to attend Springfield. If you come, look for us and say Hi. We will all be driving 48's, Chevy Convertible, Chevy Pickup, Cadillac Sedanette and my old Poncho Convertible.

    Have fun at Springfield, wish I could make it this year. We were out there in 2012 and had a great time. Springfield is a good city and watching the cars cruise in the evening, with all the locals watching is a lot of fun.

    It's been almost 10 years since I've been to Knoxville, never attended as a participant, but enjoyed my time there as a spectator.

    It will be my first time there. The other guys I will be traveling with have been before. Just hope its better than Knoxville has been the past several years. This will be the first trip for the Poncho this year. Hoping for a smooth trip there and back.

    I am planning on being there.
     
  8. I'll be there in either the coupe or the stake truck. Still haven't decided which one. I'll be parked somewhere down the hill near the 4-H building.

    I may be there on Friday afternoon but I'll definitely be there on Saturday. We usually park in the grass island somewhat near the Safety 23 inspection area. I'll probably be in a gold 64 chev. station wagon but I may be in the truck in my avatar. My brother WZ (john) will have his flamed 48' chev truck and there will be a couple 32 coupes with us as well. Please stop by for a visit. Sam

    Might have a for sale sign on it.
    Always a good time cruising.

    The wife and I just got back and we had a blast there. First time for us we will have to go back with something that will make some noise and turn some heads.

  26. I've really gotten bad about not taking photos at car events. On the other hand, I tend to spend WAY more time talking with friends at the events. I didn't do a whole lot of walking around, this year, but I did cruise the grounds, helping a buddy make an award choice. The car that he chose was a very HAMB friendly '29 roadster.

    Dad chose not to drive his '34 down, this year, so I had him drive my '40 truck. It caused some confusion, when folks would see the truck go by, then see me behind the wheel of the coupe.

    We got ready to leave and Larry's coupe quit just at the fairgrounds gate. Another electric fuel pump failed. A trip to O'Riellys for parts and we were going again.

    I bought an extra engine for the flat cad guys at the swap meet.

    Had that same experience myself a couple of years ago. Finally quit using Airtex from Oreilly and put a Carter P4070 on my 46, no more problems.

  30. Q, the landscape shot, from the side view is my new wallpaper! Very cool! Now that I have striping on my deck lid, I need to clean up that cork gasket that is sticking out from under the badge on the back!
