Event Coverage 2022 Stray Kat 500 May 6, 7 & 8, 2022

WOW! That is looking too kool! I cannot wait to see it later this year. You and Clarence will be floating on air.

 

Man, Clarence is going to look great! Love that color!

 

I'm already floating in anticipation. It's been 4 years since I drove it.

Thanx man. Washington Blue right outta the late 30's. Single stage. No clear. No pearl. No metallic.

 

I would be floating too. You have a lot of kool roads to look forward too...... That is one of the ten reasons I hadn't painted my Merc. You are a lot more mature than I am. I would be crying in the corner if I didn't have my favorite toy to drive. Lol!

 

Good for you Atch(Mike). I’m sure you are anxious to get back out on the road.

 

That's going to be fantastic Mike!!!!! What a great color choice!

 

Life happens - My registration is now a donation to keep this event alive.

I owe a BIG debt to the folks here at the "Traditional Customs" forum. A 60+ year old dream happened because I wandered by here and found the Lead Ain't Dead show.

I have wandered off - it is "sort of" explained in my signature below...

The schedule for Friday's Reliability Round. We are leaving to go to Prairie Song 10am. We will be leaving from Stray Kat headquarters, the address is 700 N Delaware, Dewey, OK

The other two runs; The Mercantile in Pawhuska and Starbirds Museum is when you are able or want too. If you have any questions please let me know. We have some guys ask, when they are coming into town, could they just meet in Pawhuska or Afton. Yes you can...… Our highlighted run is Prairie Song and we will be leaving 10am Friday.

 

Been a while since we've been to Prairie Song....looking forward to going back!

 

Another bump to show off the award the Crossmembers will be giving out with some artwork by Alan Childers. May be @drdave picking it this year.

 

Alan has a lot of talent, Thanks to the Crossmembers for giving away such a kool award.

 

Baby Shower at a car show? We have been very humbled that the Kats want to host a Baby Shower at this years show. Chase & Kacy are very active with our event and they want to do something for the Kat Family.

Below is the Information.....

 

Very Kool Mick! Look forward to meeting your grandkids.

 

Thanks for posting that Mick! I just got on here to do the same thing.

Cool trophy Jeff!! Possibility exists we will have to leave Saturday evening....baby dedication at church on Sunday and I think Logan and Derrick are dedicating the grandkids.

 

Lol...may only be Jimmy left on Sunday morning then. I'm sure he can handle it if we can keep him from picking some Camaro or something...

 

Hahahaha!!!!

 

Is there anything happening in Dewey or Bartlesville Thursday evening? In order to be there Friday morning I'll be arriving Price Towers Thursday afternoon. A 6 hour drive to get there at or before 10:00 am Friday would mean leaving home at 4:00 am. That just ain't happening.

So Is there anything I can do in Dewey or Bartlesville or anyone I can meet up with Thursday evening?

Unfortunately I'll be driving a late model as Clarence came home from the painter only last week. He currently has no seats, no wiring, no lights, no gauges, etc., so I won't be driving him.

Next year, however...

 

Pre-registration will close today at 5pm (central time). If you would like to register to save $5 go to the web site www.straykatkustoms.com hit the "Kat Show" tab.

Registration will re open 8:30 am Friday morning at the station aka Stray Kat headquarters. 700 N Delaware, Dewey.

If you have any questions just let me know.

 

Check out some of the pre-registrators. (new word?)

Mike and Tammy Stiner bringing their new tribute to Bo Huff Kustom.




The El Camino has been out away for a while. 70’s survivor.





Shan and Tammy Gaily finished their 51 hardtop convertible Mercury. Project for over 30 years. We need to congratulate the Gailey’s for staying after it..

 

The weather is looking good so far! Let's hope that doesn't change!

 

I get to come back this year finally, can't wait.

 

The host hotel, Fairfield has three rooms available for this weekend. Give them a call (918)331-2100
Tell them you are coming for the Kat show.

 

Getting close now...which means I better start getting 3 cars ready to head that way. We did put all new vacuum hoses on Samuels headlights tonight so maybe it will quit winking at folks. And, I figure we can finish up putting Silas’s car back together tomorrow after the last second paint work. Then, I just need to check my car over I suppose. Looking forward to hanging out with everyone!

 

Hope you guys have better weather over the weekend.

 

Yep, looking like a nice weekend as best I can tell with rain ending this evening. The calm after the storm, as some might say. Might be a warm ride home Sunday!

 

Leaving in a few minutes. Will anyone be there this evening?

 

Not until Thursday night, remember?

We're leaving in about an hour, see ya all in a few hours!

 

Keeping it simple/traditional, I like that! It's gonna look great.

 

I'm sure that there will be picture threads but till then here's a pic of Mick's deck lid:

 

See you soon! Headed that way in an hour or so.
