Folks Of Interest Official.....Kiwi Kev thank you thread.

Me and Ladyshifter have to publicly thank one of the most generous and honest Hot Rodder that I know....not only did Kevin and his family make us feel at home at there home they also did for an enormous amount of the greatest people I have met. What a wonderful B-B-Q.....So thank you Kevin and family for taking the time out for us....if anyone else has some personal thank you's for Kevin and family this is the place.

 

Thanks, Kevin.
It was awesome. Great atmosphere, great food, great people and great cars.
I cant wait to do it again, it's getting bigger and bigger every year.

 

Kevin,
Thanks for letting us local biker slobs view your wonderful piles of stuff and feed us in a spectacular fashion. Excellent job on the pig!

While Royal is thankin' Kev. I'd like to thank Royal and Kev for their always good additions to the HAMB.
Bein' here on the east coast I have not yet met either of them but, I hope that the day will come.
Have a good one, Smokey

 

I was only there for a bit but had a ton of FUN. My head was spining like a top with all the stuff you have and tools. But best of all thanks for opening your home to a group like us.

Many Kiwis in attendance! Can't forget to thank my friend Mike who is the one with the pig cooking knowlege and is the real hard worker. I owe him!

 

Please tell me more about that gold 35-36 Ford pickup.

 

G´day Kiwi Kev
Looks like you guys had a great time, sucking on all that piss and great food.
But most aussies know that kiwis are more into sheep than pigs, so whats the go. Just giving you a bit of local friendly humour.
No really, looks like you had a really great day.
Hopefully I can get to come up and meet you guys some time.

I am in Guadalajara, Mexico working on a 50 merc here. Its on the HAMB.----Mexican Merc 50.
So when its done I plan to bring it up to the shows/runs.

Anyway, keep up the good work, catch you next time.
Tom, (oz40)

 

Metalsmith, Chef, Party Host, Outdoor Decorator....What else?

Got couple signs for you, one of these days I will leave them on your door step..Maybe next year your guest should bring a sign for you as a token of their thanks.

 

Kev, glad to see you got that pic with the Southern Culture On The Skids. To all who didn't make it, they played a great set on Saturday that I think has not been mentioned on the Primer Nats posts. Are you gonna be doing a tech article on the light up pig eyeballs by the way? I'm not sure, but I think it was hooked up to a 6 volt battery with a voltage drop and NOS cloth wires!!
Thanks again, D.

 

WHAT???
No invite extended to your mid-west girls??? Where's the love???

 

It definatly was a great time! Here's some of my pic's from the BBQ..

Pig Prep!
