the $200 to do the poker run is getting a little much, but fun non the less

 

had an absolute blast

thanks to the World Famous Swindlers!

I took over 200 pictures and a couple dozen short videos
I'll try to post some tonight

 

Damn it. I missed it again. I spent the day pulling the engine out of the 59. Why couldn't the engine held together for one more weekend... Looks like everyone had a good time.

 

Hated to miss it, but had to attend a funeral instead.

Chris, will get up with you to figure out that firewall.

thank to everyone who took pictures.

 

Paul, you lucked out bud, running out of gas right at a gas station, that's darn lucky. I also liked you burn-out over the railroad tracks that was cool.

there are my feet stiching up from teh green roadster trying to find that dam rattle
the run was a blast cant wait to drive my car on it

 

I had a great time,
awsome weather, beatiful scenery, fantastic cars, and a ton of cool people to hang with

yeah,
I was watching my gas for the last bit wondering if I was going to make it,
she started caughing at the crest of that last rise, I was really hoping there was I gas station at the bottom of the hill, not knowing where we were..
it was bone dry as I started down hill, I shut it off and coasted that last half mile or so to within a few feet of the pumps!

for a poker hand I pullen ace, then a king, then another ace then another king, last card was an eight, but that was good enough for second place- $150.00 !!

as a few of the cars were leaving they peeled out going up the little rise before the tracks,
so, what the hell, I can do that
Seacrist said he saw daylight under my tires
could be, it felt like I was flying for a second there hahaha

 

You can fly and I'm a witness....

 

Thanks for the photos fellas, I feel like I was *almost* there....

 

Hey Paul, Sorry we lost you on the way south. I was told later that you've got some real low gears. I thought you were right there with us but headlights all look the same in the mirror at night. The Swindlers Rock! Best weather yet. Thanks again guys.

 

There are two joys of hotrodding. One is the build the second is the social events.
I am new to the area and I have met the greatest guys and gals. Thanks to the swindlers for a fantastic event.I will not miss the next one. Please try to support the companies that helped sponser.

 

Wow !......The World Famous Swindlers put together a spectacular line-up of cars !......some of my Canadian buddies were there, and raved about the good time they had, but I was committed (or should be ) .....I won't miss it next year if the invite still stands.......Thanks for the pix.........

 

Yep, I saw it too!..... There was air!! I was wonderin if you'd make it or not, when I saw at the size of that gas tank.
