Thanls to Doug for inviting me along for a great day on the Swindlers Poker Run. Thanks to all the Swindlers members for their hospitality and effort , I had a blast! Thanks to Chris and Jamie for taking these great pics of the hot rods and customs, especially Marks, roadster, the Couver Kids 32, and Dougs 32 coupe (it hauls ass!). The food was super and the scenery was beautiful despite the overcast. I will be back next year......Terry
Whoops, Almost forgot Logans outrageouos Model A coupe and Dave Yorks B.C. Kustom...............Terry
This was my first time to the poker run. It was the greatest time I've had since I can remember. The drive on the run was insane, being from Wyoming I had no idea that there is scenery like that. I can't say enough, really. Randy killed it on the food, the best BBQ I've ever had. The best cars and the best folks in the world, hands down. I would like to thank my great friends the Swindlers for letting me be part of their group, even though I live way the hell out here. Did it rain? I didn't even notice. What a blast. The only thing that sucked is that B.A.K(hudsoncustom) wasn't there, I missed him for sure.
My rat rod is totally going to break down on this run next year.......that is if Thee Inland Emperors Flathead Reliability run doesn't claim it first.... thanks for the great pictures Chris. It's good inspiration to get my ass in gear.
Looks like you had a good time, I'm glad to see thee Emperors were well represented. By the way, these two photos need to in the H.A.M.B. calendar thread because they're two bitchin' pics.
I trailered it. They're not sketchy, they're Firestones. Ha ha. No, I figured they would be okay for the run. I'm in the middle of building a '34 five window, so all spare expenses have been going to that. I hope to bring it up next year.
Looks like a super time, wish I could have made it. We're now prepping for our run on Nov 5th and can't wait. http://www.acescarclub.com/News/ACES Poker Run 2011/Poker_Run_2011.htm I didn't realize how different a poker run is than other "car shows". I really had one of the best times last year at our first one. Thanks for posting the pics, really enjoyed them!
