Event Coverage Who has Hot Rod Vacation plans?

ER...
I'm going to Santa Maria 3 hours away.
A 3-day weekend is the closest I'll get to a vacation this summer.

 

My son and I are headin to the showdown this weekend!!! he's 5 and so excited,and so am I.

 

Heading to Atlanta over Labor Day weekend....for Dixie Fried....

 

July 15th- Heading from NA$HVILLE,TN to SACRAMENTO, CA for the poor boys Midnight M*** July25th. 2,400 miles of wind, sun, and rain in a 24 Ford Tub without the top. Can you put me up along the way so I can get the red out of my eyes!? Also thinking about Rhinebeck NY in June.

 

Yep speedweek for me to.

 

Did you start this thread to show off?
No vacation this year, the wife is havin' twins!!!
Please post lots-a pics when and if you decide to come back!!

 

From here to Steve's Restorations Portland. To Hot August Nights Reno. To Bonneville Speed Week. To Winnamucca Museum. To Pleasenton GG. Then, The West Coastal route(hwy 1)north to home. About 4 weeks. Can't wait. Got a house sitter for the first time for the critters, so we won't be worrying about that for a change. See ya all on the road!

 

Was gonna be a vacation, til I got **** canned, so Now it's a permenent vacation!!!

Going to Bonneville this year.

Finally.

 

Four friends and I are heading for So Cal, leaving Australia 27 of may for LA then a road trip, hopping to take in the Ink & iron at Long beach, plus visit a few rod shops along the way Frisco, Vegas etc ending at LA roadster show.

 

Yup, had one all planned out. Two weeks in the nicest place, women, drinks, beach and sunshine but then I thought why just a hot rod vacation?
So I went instead.

Doc.

 

Oh really

 

Yes, we will be together at last.

I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself.

 

My big trip for this year has us leaving Illinois on July 1. First night, Detroit for a cruise night. Then Toronto, where we meet 70+ rodders for the Points East Tour. Following nights in Ottawa, Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, 3 nights in Nova Scotia, then back to NB for the Atlantic Nationals in Moncton.
The tour ends there, so I will solo to Maine to visit some rodders friends, then a couple nights vacation in Lake Placid, on to the Syracuse Nationals and then home.
Three weeks, ?,??? miles.
See you down the road,
Phil

 

Big Island Rod Run.... 2 weeks away, and counting. Fireworks on Coconut Island. Look for the '50 Dodge G***er. We will be with Warren for the week.

 

Thinking about going to the Hunnert Car Pile Up near Chicago in October

 

If I can get a new rear end in my 55 by the first week of August, I plan to hit Yellowstone for the 39th Annual Rod Run. I doubt I will actually register for the show because that's not really my thing. It's not exactly H.A.M.B. friendly, but how could you beat hot rods in Yellowstone for 4 days? They say they expect 500 to 700 cars there. I kinda doubt that, but even half that number rolling around in Yellowstone would be cool.

It will be about 3000 miles round trip and I plan to be camping near Cody, Wy. for a few days before and a few days after. I'll be rolling through the Grand Canyon area, Moab and Star Valley, Logan Utah, Jackson Hole, The Grand Tetons...

This year the LA Roadster Show and Bonneville... next year the Roundup, Bonneville, and whatever else a newlywed can squeeze in.

 

Hey Kevin forgot to tell you ,they told us last week Dennis Gage of my cl***ic car will be at the show rollin tape.

 

Speedweek and GG Spokane, can't wait.

 

Its a blast, I would highly recommend it. Roundup was my hot rod vacation for the season. Local stuff from now on...

I'm in the middle of my Hot Rod Reunion weekend vacation.
More Nitro please!

 

Maxton, Loring and Bonneville. What could be better?

Counting the days!

 

Headed to Boca Cuba to do some work on my friends 56 Chevy

 

Do you have any more SALT to rub in the wounds. Sounds like a great time, good luck and post some pictures.

 

Can't do too much this year. Just came back from Milwaukee for the first SFCC "Weekend at Jeffy's" Reunion and the S**** Drive. Hoping to make it back for the Hunnert Car Pileup.

Definitely heading to Atlanta for Dixie Fried.
