IT'S GOING TO BE A BAD ASS BITCHIN "BIG TIME" AT AREA 57 IN BRANSON MO. Sept. 12-14 2008. YA'LL COME SEE US, YA HEAR!! www.sledsinseptember.com Later, Lynn
Things are looking great to make this a premier Kustom and Hot Rod show in the region. Hope to see some of you Southwest MO - NW Arkansas guys out at the show this weekend! Any questions PM me. Thanks Larry www.sledsinseptember.com www.area57events.com
I'm sad to say I'm a 100% maybe. The problem I have I can only go for the day and not looking forward to the drive home. Hoping to make the decision tomorrow, I'm really going to try to make it. Larry’s not on the HAMB very much but he is one kool guy and has one of the koolest locations for a car show. The Dick Clark Theater / Area 57 is one of the koolest places that I've been in a while. Like most guys I hate Branson, but their location you avoid 90% of the traffic because it is located right off of the 65 highway. The entry fee is worth the money just to see the feature cars and the Area 57 museum. The museum is pure butter!!! Larry walked me through the Museum last year and he had to watch me close because I wanted to steal some hub caps. I love '57 Lincoln caps.... Checkout their web site and take the virtual tour. http://www.dickclarksbranson.com/coolcars.cfm The show grounds are at the Best Western so you'll be able to kick back and relax. Hotel rooms are very nice, cheap and a super breakfast buffet. Should be a kool weekend!! Hopefully I'll see ya Saturday. Happy Trails, Mick
Mick Thanks for the kind words man! Yesterday was great, nice weather and some really cool cars! We got about 3/4 of the way through "California Kid" on the big screen before it started raining. Today it says overcast and the possibility of late showers. We had several cars roll in last night during the movie and expect more today. Looking like around 60 cars for our first year if all goes right. Thats not alot BUT the level of cars we have here.....WOW!!! If the weather holds good later tonight we have the Maxwells playing at 7 and American Grafitti on at 9. If you just want to come out and look at the cars.....bring a camera and tell the guys at the gate your a HAMB member and read this on the board I will make sure you get in FREE! If you have a pre-1964 ride.....vehicle registartion is $25, you get a FREE pass to the museum Mick talked about ($18 value) plus a killer Sleds in September special DVD with vintage 50 drag racing and old 50's drivers ed type hot rod safety movies and other goodies! Mick, hope you can make it, would love to have the Merc here! Thanks Larry
Man wish I could go to this but I just tore my car down for the season to do some updating!! I am there next year for sure!! Sounds like a great time!! -COS
