Dammit , Jim... I don't think I will have my car built by then. Hmmmmmm. Maybe a 55 gallon drum of mountain dew and a big box of skittles I might could just make it. Have fun

 

Looking forward to this show. Cars are always high quality. My favorite bunch of folks also. Worth the drive a little south of the Springs.

Roger: Maybe those new engine mounts will be done, new engine installed, and maybe the long anticipated debut of the famous 1955 Cadillac?

Tom

 

looking foward to seeing everyone again and once again outstanding t-shirt design by roger jetter again

 

The chow alone is worth the drive.

 

Tom, the mounts are built and done...but I'm not sure the engine will be back in and the front clip back on in time...would be nice to put some miles on it tho...we'll see.

Thanx Dave, the shirt features the late John Shady's Turquoise '53 Chevy convert...

And YOU have such a loooo-oooong drive...!!! Is the paint dry on that Merc yet...???

let's do it. I'll get the wife to ride shot gun with the 300 m lens

 

Who's Kirk ?

 

Curt,

Glad you're coming, sorry you missed Gunnison, it was a hoot.

Hey, maybe we'll get to meet Kirk..................

Johnnie.

 

This show is a GREAT time....so those of you intendin to cruise, I am hittin Omelet Parlor on Filmore at 8am

 

Kirk? Wasnt he that bad ass kat who drove that kustom called The USS Enterprise?????

 

OH YEA.....James T. Kirk.........I forgot.

 

Hung out with the Lonely Knights at the Denver Modernism Show on Sunday. Nice turn out, but small in comparison to what I expect to see at Paint N Primer.

If you haven't been previously, PnP is a low key event that focuses on our kind of cars and more importantly, the people who build/drive them. This is a family event with lots of food...and space to hang out with some really great car folk. No egos or attitudes...just good people who get it.

Looking forward to seeing you all down there.

 

I have attached a file for those of you that want a flyer with directions to the event that you can print out:

 

Looking forward to the show, a friend of mine has been before and says its a great time.

mike1951, my buddy and I are going to try and make it to the Omelet place. We won't be hard to miss, 1962 Bonneville in various shades of primer and a 1939 Ford rat truck with 6-2's on a blown SBC.

 

1953 Buick....4 door. Pretty easy to see as well. I'll have my red HAMB ball cap on.
Worst case, see you at the show

 

Made it back into town...we'll be there!

 

BTTT gonna be a great show tomorrow, I'll see you all there. PM me if you want to meet up to cruise down there

 

i love waynes car. Very cool. Museum car right? So clean.

 

the guys from my crew are being lazy and we are meeting up at my shop around 9am. The guys are usually late so probably 9:30. You are welcome to meet up with us. Either way, we will see you there.

 

Kirk here.... the Enterprise is up and running again as of last night. I just have to do some cleaning after I get home from work today since it hasn't been touched since Kansas. I be bringing one of the kids down with me. Can't wait!

 

Hey, "Kirk"

It will be good to see you. Still need a drag plaque?

Spock

 

Yes, please! I haven't seen my other one on Ebay yet.....

 

I plan on being there just to meet some of you. Don't have a car yet (looking) so we'll driving the 4runner..yeesh
