    Me and my dad went to Knoxville left my house at 5 in the morning got there aroung 8:00. finally found a place to park that didnt have a chair in it. That place is to spread out cars every where. Cant look at cars there very well. looked at the swap meet and venders bought a few things ate lunch. went to the HAMB meet and great got there 10 mintes early no body there. Had a good time drove back home hit 500 bugs and 1 dead dog. Time with DAD ...Priceless...

    I was waiting on a buddy to show up, he got there late. I didn't make it over to the steps till about 12:20 and didn't see anyone I knew either. Had a good time, weather was nice and some good cars. Like most everyone else I don't like the change of venue but since I live here in town guess I'll keep going till they stuff cotton in my arse...

    I had saw Hot Rod Ben on Friday over in the swap meet and asked him about the M&G. I had always missed them so I made it a point to get there and I thought there would be a crowd or someone would say Hamber or something but I guess not. Oh well like you say maybe next time. Here are some pics. I like Ford Trucks so the pics are slanted that way some

    Pics with a few Cars mixed in.

    Nice vehicles just not in this crowd. IMHO Cars Pre 65 and Trucks Pre 73 would have been better accepted. Just my opinion. Hope you enjoy the pics

    Thanks for the pics. I had planned on going on Saturday but got tied up with a house issue and couldn't make it this year.

    Next year I hope.

    Some guys wearing NSRA shirts stopped by the parts store I work at part time on Friday evening needing a belt, some Honda (???) P/S Fluid and trying to patch up a power steering hose - I wonder of they got squared away OK?

    I hate what this show has become. We have been going to this show for a LONG time. When I see pics like those last few.... I remember why we don't go anymore.
