  7. $30.00 per 10x20 space, under roof or outside,...in the swapmeet area to the south end of fairgrounds, not to be confused with inside vendor buildings.
    ...remember, Vintage auto parts and related items only, no new parts unless N.O.S.,...no clothes, sunglasses, diecasts, etc.

    Oh man, saw that Mothership is playing Sat night in addition to Shack Shakers on Fri. Think Torque Fest wins the weekend. We'll be there on bikes.

    I've spent this spring learning upholstery. You will have to check it out next time you see it. I think it tied the whole car together really nice. Other than that, I've been doing all the restoration stuff that you don't really see. New control arm bushings, heavy duty springs to even the stance, new gas tank, new wiring, tires, etc. going to get deep into the drivetrain next winter, I will hopefully have a new shop.

    This was a shot from last year by Nick Holliday. Every year we go on some kind of cruise. This year we will be cruising the back roads heading to Field of Dreams. Join us Friday afternoon!

    We always have Car Club picks on Stage 2 around 5pm on Saturday - if you want to get a hand made award ready, just go to the volunteer booth before 1pm on Sat and they will give you instructions on getting your pick to Stage 2. Thanks for all that have helped in the past.

    Are you going to be able to bring the coupe too? Or couldn't you find a truck driver?
     
  24. No coupe this year, just the truck. :(

    Just a heads up - I will be in Dubuque pretty much the rest of the week - if anyone has questions, Sam from Tin Butchers, Steve Day, or Justabeater can probably answer. THANKS and seeya at Vintage Torque Fest 2015.

    Is there a waiting list already for the louvers? I would like to have you do the hood on my 51 Fleetline. If you could add me, I would appreciate it.
