hey guys, just noticed at the end of july americruise east and west are ending together in lincoln nebraska. just thought id throw up a post and see if any hambers would be with either of those groups. i live right between the host hotel/down town and the fair grounds so if i could walk a block to meet a hamber i normaly would have to drive across the country to meet thatd be preety cool. tim
JimA will be there and leading the tour from the West Coast. What more of an excuse do you need? http://rodandcustommagazine.com/hotnews/0602rc_americruisereg/
Hey Tim, I'll be there with my T-Bucket and will have several buddies there. You should stop by and say hi. I'm in Omaha so I won't be coming in with the tours. If you are joining in Americruise there are going to be free tours of Speedway Motors. That place has some great historical stuff!
The cost is only $20 for the car, driver and passenger. That includes the tours and the show and a tour of the Speedway Museum.
cool so looks like there will be a few of us around. we'll hav eto make a point to bump into each other and put some faces to names tim
I'll be there as well, the west tour is stopping here in Kearney on the last over night stop before Lincoln. I plan on jumping in with them then and crusing the chyrsler that way
There is some pretty good info at www.rodandcustommagazine.com hope to see some of ya'all there Vance
I will be there. I am part of Savoy_mans group. We have a car club called the Bastards that are bringing 5 or 6 cars down. I have a 55 Ford that is running up against the wire to get it there, but damn it. I am going to make it! Hope to see you all there! Scooter
gonna be there for the 0 to 40 and 40 to 0 events,are they going to have the chassis dyno there this year has anyone heard?
Anyone else getting excited for this event? My car club is busting its collective Azz to get my 55 Ford done. We have all the replacement sheet metal in place, just gotta finish bondo work and prime it. Should be finishing that up on Wednesday or Thursday for a Friday departure! WHOOO HOO!! It sure makes things easier when you have a good club working with you to get things done. I think our list of cars going is: my 55 ford, a 62 impala, a 57 plymouth savoy hard top, 62 ford bronco, and possibly a 23 tbucket. We are leaving a 58 Savoy behind and a Ford unibody pickup behind. Look for a primer black 55 Ford with radiused wheel wells and a Bastards Pinstriping motif on it. See ya at the show!
i doubt ill hit the actualy show but look for a flat brown 53 ford customline with a bullet hole in the window down town.

I'm in. I'm thinkin' the rest of the Road Burners are going down Friday morning. Our two Rug Burners are taking the trip down with me so the Twinkie doesn't roll out 'till Friday nite. Speaking of the Twinkie, a buddy of mine sent me this link from the GG Des Moines coverage. I guess there's something to be said about "Gary Meadors Yellow" cars http://www.good-guys.com/events/photo_detail.asp?photo=0342_HLN06.jpg&next=54&prev=52&eventID=HEART06
Americruise was a BLAST! O st was too damn full of cops to have too much fun. But overall the weekend was a good one!! Only 1 minor problem with the car. Had a loose connection at the ballast resistor that caused me about a 15 minute find and fix. But all went well aside from that.
