    I am originaly from Sioux City. I now live in Keller, TX.

    I have a 1931 Model A sedan body, currently at my dad's place just north of Sioux City. I need it transported to Texas. If you know of some one with an empty pickup headed south in the near future, I can pay their gas money for the trip down.

    I'll be at the Big 12 Tournament in mid March. We can do a handoff there. If that works.

    Thanks,

    Yah 4th Street Cruise is still one of my favorites! It is only a couple of miles from my house-just in case my ride brakes down it's a short walk! You have any dates for these other shows you spoke of?

    agreed a little get together would be cool maybee we can come up with sompthing this spring -summer ! as far as the shows i listed i believe these dates are right but dont hold me to it i havent got my show schedule yet this year ! goodguys 4th july weekend , jully 11th bologna nats , memorial day weekend 4th st cruise , not sure on the tiki eyeball show i came across it last year by word of mouth from the promoter & rumor had it his buisness shop was lost to the flooding this summer so i don't know ! i also look forward to meeting some out of state hambers as i also go to back to the fifties , good guys kansas city , the hot rod power tour ,hunnert car pileup , thanks brock and hopefully boneville this year . if any one knoes of any other good iowa shows hit me up , my friends and i are always down for a good road trip ! as far as the weather comments i hear you guys if the roadster pickup was together i'd be tempted to get it out , this weekend feels like a heat wave being above 30 compared to all the -0 to 10 % degree temps we have been stuck with !
