    I'll be there for sure, It's something not to miss. Look for the black and white '57 Ranch Wagon parked at the fast end of the track.

  5. My friends from England are going to this event...(After the Rockaround). They are looking for some pre-parties and good places to go to meet people to hang out with. They are into Rockabilly, Psychobilly and Hot Rods.

    E-mail me if you can send me some info - also, is there a webpage for the event?

This will mark the reunion of Fred Larsen's steamliner and his roadster together again after 38 years ! The Roadster will be sportin' a new shiny paint job , So come by M@@neyes, check it out, say hello and to shake some hands. L B ......out

    We land in LA on 30th then make our way up to Pismo to meet up with Shelly, then head on out to Bakersfield on friday early (the downside being we'll be in a hire car, but you can't have your cake & eat it too)
    slcbillygirl who are your friends from England, i know some that will be at LV Rockaround.
    This only a short trip for us just for the reunion, after we'll head up to Frisco so do any of you know any non-gold chain shops worth a visit, would hate to drive right past something good!

    slcbillygirl, they don't ring a bell but if they make Hemsby i would recognise them by sight, as they come from Gt Yarmouth they more than likely do!

  21. I fly in to LAX on Sept. 30... Booked a hotel in Bakersfield from Thursday night to Sunday morning...
    I don't know if my buddy in L.A. can get 2 days off from work to leave on Thursday, otherwise I'll meet up with him at the races... That means that I have to go in a rental car then, otherwise in the RPU...
    On Sunday morning we'll be going to El Mirage to check out the action down there...

    Jerry - A HAMB meet would be good, because it sounds like you and I need to meet up. I am planning to bring a Ford car rear end over for Deyomatic and he said you were taking it back for him.

    I've got to find Radshit also, because I have a 289 short block for him.

    So how about 12 noon at the south end of the stands?

    I'll be there. Hope to make the Rattlecan deal on Friday too. I'll be wearing a red ballcap with a big white "N" on the front (usually stands for "Nebraska" - but during the CHRR, it stands for "Nitro!"). Look for me with the Standard 1320 group around the "grove" area. Supposed to have a golf cart rented, so I hope to get everywhere.

    I'll try to wear my HAMB drags shirt sometime during the meet - and I'll prowl the rat rod area at the end of the bleachers.

    A friend and I are staying at the Vagabond in B'field. Stop by and introduce yourself.

  27. Me & CK are planning to be there on Saturday.
    I'll be wearing a white Australian T-shirt with 50 Ford convert, black 32 highboy three window and orange Willys' coupe on the front.
    Got a New Zealand/Australian style hat as well.
    And a ponytail.

    CK will be ... well, he's just CK....

    I'll probably drive the pickup down.
    Hauling some parts for the Southland.

    Far as I know right now, little brother and his black Henry J won't be there.
