Calendar has been marked! I'll bring a van load of stuff to display.

 

Glad you're coming. Bob Nelson will be there for sure..

 

Had a few calls and PM's about this. So, BTTT

 

I'll see you there Paul.
This is always a great day of some real nice east coast hot rods and lots of cars with real old history!

Maybe we can even get the Cumberland and Attleboro boys to drive out of town, and maybe even some of the RI guys over...whatcha say Mike, Jim, Jerry, Den...????
LSM

 

What will you be driving

 

Dennis, He lives so close, he could walk over.

How about coming down yourself, Dennis. Free vendor space with the $10 entry. We could even have a hamb meeting for photos.

 

And it's probably small enought that I couldn't forget to be there for the photo.

 

Yeah, this show is my scarecrow...

 

hey so wheres the hamb meeting gonna be? i might be wearing a youngrodderz cc t-shirt, thats how you will be able to recognize me.

oh, and no car again, maybe next year...... hopefully.........

 

"IF" Dennis shows as a vendor, we can meet there. If not we could meet up at my roadster. Noon OK with everyone?

 

Hey Paul, I recognize that garage. Roger told me about the camshaft newel post, but that's the first time I've seen it. That is very impressive!! -Scott

 

Scott,
Here's a better picture of the wooden cam with it's maker, Roger Bergquist. . It's a copy of an Isky 77.

Hope you're planning to come to the gathering on the 21st.

 

It's only happy (smiling) when it's dirty from lots of road miles. I guess I'll leave it as is after the Rolling Bones run this weekend. Thanks for the heads up.

 

damn, have to go to a wedding in RI... might stop by on my way though....

 

The info says it starts at 9 AM, but I know people start showing up at 8 and earlier. Skip the wedding and just go to the reception. No one will know, that is, unless you're the groom.

 

ha, no, not the groom. trust me, we'd rather pass on the wedding. should be able to get there for the morning tho. if you see a guy in a suit, that would be me...

 

ok, so hamb meeting at noon either by o'brien truckers' or pauls roadster. i look forward to meeting you guys

 

Mr B's camshaft that thing kicks ass-he told me about it at Ty-rods.....haha

 

It looks like I'll be walking since the C-Dan went down the road tonight.
Maybe I'll tow the '37 over for a preview!

So...are you going to make that long trip down here, or whimp out???

It's a great day with a bunch of history, old hot rods and great people. Gather up the boys and come on down.

 

Keith, By all means bring the '37 over. Projects are always welcomed. No need to wait until it's done to start showing if off.
Good job on moving the "c-dan". Now get going on the '37. Oh wait, you've got a boat now too. Oh well, can't have too many toys can you?
Hey, bring the boat. It'll get as much attention as most of the cars. The flier did say "Hemi's".

 

Paul , George here , Just got back from Hershey , Had to leave no more room in the truck , Lots of money spent .Wont make it to the reliability run ... Syracuse dirt race last one of the season tomorrow , we have several cars involved ...I will send the photos ...

 

i'll be there.I'll try & talk the other guys into going, i think there getting tired of me raggin them so they go just to shut me up!!!!
I feel bad cause i skunked Jerry today.
Its the same day as one arm bandits show in CT so i'll haul ass down there after your show.

Don't know if I'll make it Paul,but I know Woody's going.Hey when are u planning on bringing that roadster back to Norwood to get fixed.

 

I'm planning on going. We do have a wedding to go to that day but i think we can miss the mass. I'm hoping it's warm enough for the roadster. I told Mike if i take the roadster he can not put his windows up. Jim don't worry about skunking me yesterday. I owe you one now. Dennis hopfully i will remember the magazine i told you about. See you guys in a few weeks. Jerry

 

hey paul, i'm looking forward to seeing you guys again, i've been twice now and it's a great show. there is a HAMB meet and photo-op at noon?? the cumberland crew plus one north attleboro guy will be there!! maybe i can talk ya into a ride in that roadster??? see ya at 9am on the 21st...... mike

now let's see, where is NOSURF?? how about it jay? you going to be there?? hey mark, you should have brought him back here in your suitcase!! of course you would have had a hard time getting his coupe in there too!!

see you guys in a couple weeks, mike

p.s. i NEED a new T-Shirt!!

 

Just back from Hershey, got some info on the Henderson 4 powered Midget. Turns out the fire it was in was around 1975 in Boston. Anyone know about a fire in a Fire Engine Collectoin in Boston? Honest, I'm not making that up, meet the son of the guy that bought it with a few chared American La France fire engines.
