    I know Iron Invasion JUST happened, but I also JUST happened to get my '64 Caddy...and would love some end of year cruise opportunities.

    Let me know!

    Morris is supposed to have a big show this coming weekend.
     
  3. Run out to Morris this weekend for their newly-added October Saturday Night Cruise on the 13th (the summer cruises draw 800+ cars).

    Then stay over or come back the next day for the Lion's Club show (1200+ cars) at the chemical plant on Rt.6 east of town. Plus a huge swap meet. You won't be disappointed.

    Good to know! Is the Morris show more traditional HAMB type rides, or a "typical" car show?

    Try for Morris this coming Sunday. Rain date is the following Sunday. Last year was over 1,000 cars. Google Morris Lions Club Car Show for full details.

    Go to the memorial drags at the grove and the Kreepers party on Sunday. Those are going to be the kind of shows you want to be at!
