Lets do it! The 15th of Feb is the Fontana swap meet/calif speedway! Its a small swap right now, but the purpose of this BBQ/swap is to get everyone together, meet and have an all nighter. So the party will be the night of the 14th, It opens at 2pm on the 14th. Its only $10 for a spot and we can pretty much do whatever we want within reason. Bring your sleeping bag and your necessities. Enter the swap as a seller whether you have something or not, heck just bring a few parts anyway, we all have extra stuff. Carne asada, chicken, salad, beer, pico sauce, whatever floats your ride bring it with. Lets have a blast! Who's with me? I know desertratrodder is in and I might be able to borrow "Hip" for a weekend if he can get a kitchen p***! Satin
yes bring a few parts to recoup all that $$ spent on beer. This place is all asphalt, has real bathrooms, guys and girls. The lighting isnt real good, so bring a lantern. Discreet fire pits were ok last show. If we all get there Saturday around 2, we'll all be able to get spots together. They dont really ***ign spots, one car per space sold 20 X 20. NO COPS to tell you you cant drink. They may come if you act like an ***hole though. This is about 15 minutes or so from Pomona, so if you went there, you can make it to this one. This will be a good time, so who's coming?? This would be a perfect Valentines day event for your honey!
Come on people!!! We can drink beer here!! What else do you need?? Girls?? Hell when word gets out that the coolest guys with the coolest cars are getting together.. they'll be throwing themselves at you!! Yeah right
sounds like some fun. i don't have anything to sell, so is that ok? i would pretty much be loitering, lol. it opens at 2 pm on saturday, then the swap meet is on sunday? are there any good parts for sale there, do ya know? i'd like to make it, i'll try.
Yea I think I will shake up the gang and try to get down there... maybe Sat to get a jump on the deals hehe. If not Sat then Sunday fo sho. Thanks for the heads up newbie. hehe bp
You dont really need anything to sell. But when you go in, say you are selling so we are all in the same area. The swap is small, but theres some good old stuff there, alot of true "cleaning out the backyard" guys. Not so much commercial vendors, its not big enough for them. There was a 29? T pickup for 1000, and alot of those type of parts. Flathead stuff, etc. I just figure bring your ride, some grub, your squeeze, beer, and have a good time. You can stay overnight. We'll be having breakfast too...Hope to see you there.
sweet, i'll definitely come check it out then. is there a certain area you guys will be at? any kind of food or beer i can bring? just seeing if i can help out.
Bring what you or your friends drink, bring enough food, etc to support yourself, and a little more. We will have a BBq or two there, from us, we may need more if this grows where it should be. I pack for these things like I'm moving to China. Theres always a few guys that forget food, and I bring enough to feed a few extra. Beer, everyone is on their own, sorry cant afford to sponsor that. UNLESS WE GO IN ON A KEG!!! I'm down with that.... Nice ride by the way, hope you can make it.
I don't get it??? Do only die hards do this sort of thing? Surely there are more of us out there. Satin
So, this BBQ party is for all the guys who don't actually have girlfriends that they want to still be on talking terms with the morning of the 15 after they didn't even pretend to make their girl the #1 most important thing on their minds on SAINT VALENTINE'S DAY? You better plug it as a "Hotrod Valentine Party" or you WON'T EVER be screwed again!
you got a good point Doc the 3 guys I know on this post are all married, I doubt I'll suddenly find a girlfriend before then so I'm in the clear.
Aintcha supposed to buy her a new vacuum or something like that? See now we need your guy's wives/ girlfriends to bring some honeys to hook up Prime with. Theres nothing more romantic than swigging beer all night and talking cars... right?? And you can serve her breakfast in the sleeping bag/ back seat the next morning...
Hey dont worry I'll be covered. I have all morning and part of the afternoon to take care of valentines day. Heck if some of you are like "Hip", you won't have much fun sticking around on Valentines anyway!
MEN.. break the chains that bind!!! Hard to believe that the HAMB Hooligans are so PW'd that theyd p*** up a chance to meet with their brothers.. You all have the 1st part of the day (Valentines if you forgot) to be with her, hell, bring her along.. This is by no means not a family oriented get together. Kids welcome, but not recommended. Its gonna be tough to drink that keg by myself.. but a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do.. BTW, my wife is OK with it.. bought her a vacuum
So where are we here. I guess thats all thats interested Desert. No biggy we'll have a blast with the few that will be there. Gonna be some sick cars out there too! Satin
Disappointing, but I'll live. I guess I wont need to bring all those baby back ribs I came into..nevermind the kegs too. Oh well.
Sooo.....where do we stand? Kinda like a head count so we have an idea of how much food and drink to bring? Is everyone whooooped? Satin
I guess the head count is 3, and someone please bring some contestants for the 1st ever (I think) HAMB Love Connection.. our good brother Prime Mover is without a lady... This all will transpire at the California Speedway this weekend... Saturday night.. (yes Valentines day) Satin & I will even donate some grub, come on down. At least if theres enough of us we can pitch in to get him a "local lady" Help a brother out!!!
Yes, but lets not forget the actual swap is sunday morning! No reason not to go then since she'll be so tired from last night, LOL
