    Uncle Chet:
    Not taking a car this year.
    Have the pickup loaded with swap meet treasures and have to go through Kansas City and pickup the give-a-way car lift on Wednesday on my way to Arkansas. Since you are retired now, you have no excuse for not being there.

    Ha Ha! You'd think I wouldn't have an excuse but I do. I've been devoting all my new found time working on the house. Projects I've been meaning to do for years. Once I get some of the bigger ones knocked out I'm going to start working on the cars. You have a safe trip and I hope you find some new treasures to replace the ones you're selling!

    Manyolcars,
    I apologize if I didn't get this posted soon enough. I added the thread last Thursday. I did put the swap meet and the car show on the HAMB Calendar in January this year as soon as Ryan made the site available to add listings for 2013.
    I hope you will be able to make the swap meet and show.
    Thanks,
    Larry

    Just called Buzz at 479-656-3929. He said if you e-mail him at [email protected] he could scan a flyer and e-mail it back to you. You would have to fill it out and get it in the mail so it would reach him on Friday.. He has to have the pre-registration by Friday. Surely the pony express can make it from Fort Smith to Gateway by then.
    Really enjoyed seeing your coupe run at the HAMB drags
    in Joplin and checking it out in the hotel parking lot.
    Hope to see you there.
    Larry

    Ladies and gentlemen:
    Headed to Kansas City to pickup the four post car lift for the car show. Remember:
    Car lift will be given away Saturday, June 8 to the owner of a vehicle registered for the Gateway Car Show. Winner will be determined by a random drawing of entry numbers. Drawing will be held rain or shine. Winner and registered, street-legal vehicle entry must be present to win. Vehicle does not have to be judged to qualify for car lift give-away.

    Hope you both can make it.
    Picked up the 4 post car lift this morning in Kansas City and it is on site in Gateway, AR ready to be given away to some lucky car show entrant on Saturday.
    Weatherman says it is going to be sunny and clear from Thursday through
    Sunday.

    Uncle Chet:
    I'll take some pictures of the swap meet and car show grounds layout. Gateway Town Park is in fantastic condition this year. Grass is green and freshly mowed. Not muddy and no problems with dirt this year. Weather is supposed to be fantastic from tonight through Sunday.
     
  18. Hey,...old tin, don't bother unloading the hoist, just bring it over to my place and while you're here you can help me set it up!!
