Event Coverage Stray Kat 500 May 6, 7 & 8, 2011

is there a year cut off this year ? i heard 64 and earlier....could this be true...

 

Very Kool! The Caddy is looking way too kool and good luck getting it back on the road. You will have a good time in your sled.

The pre 64 is what the show is set up for. I have friends that have pre 64 car but
they are not running, can't afford one right now or its not able to make it to the show.
So they are bringing a later model. As long as it is kool, that is what is important to us.

We've set up the SK 500 as a social thing more then a car show. That is the most
important part of a car show.

Right now we have 210 pre-entries which is a lot more then we've ever had at this time.
We have room for 650 cars and if the weather is purrfect we will be over the 500 mark.

I've had calls from guys making sure that we will not turn them away because we hit our
500 mark. We don't think that it is kool to turn people away and we will keep that from
happening.

If you have anymore questions let me know.

Happy Trails, Mick

 

One year my car decided at the last minute that it didn't want to make the trip, so we drove our Acura (were pre-registered). They let us in, though we parked behind a building instead of on the street! Still had as much fun as usual. As Mike Cook said one year, "The SK500 is a three-day party where a car show breaks out!"

 

Mick....... This was on my "to do list" this year, Unfortunately we won't be able to make it. I have 2 cars that have to be ready for interior by the end of May. Gotta make it while I can. Looking forward to next year and hopefully c ya in Salina in July. Chris

 

I forgot about that LOL!! When Mike said that on the radio, the DJ about lost it. Thanks for
parking the Accura behind the porta pots. LOL!!

No problem Chris we will be doing the "Kat" thing for a while, so you will have plenty of
chances. I'm honored that you would eve think about bringing the caddy to Dewey. That
is one sweat ride. Looking forward to seeing ya in Salina.

Happy Trails, Mick

 

Well, if you let Duncan's Acura in, can I just register my dash, since it is the only part of the car making the show? LOL Got the last coat of primer on last night, so hopefully one more pass with the sand paper and it's ready for paint and then for Ron.

 

You can register any part off your Merc. Did you get a new, old one? What did ya do
with the old one?

 

me and fudpucker got our rooms chanced to include thursday night so will see ya that morning, OMG 4 days in dewey, does that make me a resident?

 

you'll need a green card...

I'll be there in a borrowed '28 roadster

 

It will be easier for the cops to catch up to ya..... LOL!!

Kool!, One of these days I'm going to borrow Jack's Roadster. Look forward to a future
post on the HAMB about my first Roadster experience.

 

Speaking of borrowing cars....here's a shot of Mick driving Jeff's Caddy on Saturday, I believe is internal monologue right about here was "don't wreck, don't wreck, don't wreck, don't wreck."


I'll be in Dewey late Thursday night as well, looking forward to an extended stay in Stray Kat Land!

 

Mmm...Gravy! And there is a some meat under all those potatoes.......Mmmm....Murphy's Steakhouse RULES! See ya' soon.

and here I am trying to eat a healthy lunch trying to believe that it actually tastes good... now you show me a Murphy's pic and I'm throwing this garbage lunch in the trash and I may just have to drive to Bartlesville this afternoon

 

Is Mick going to be done with his Merc by then? It's really cool to have your friends chip in and get a new motor.
See ya there friday morn. Have the coffee made!

 

We drove a couple of hours just to eat lunch @ Murphy's a couple of years back.

I was praying the whole time don't dent the Caddy. I had an escape plan, if something
were to happen I was going to throw it to the floor and make a run for the border. LOL!

That has to be one of my highlights of my life time. I've driving a lot of cars before but
there is nothing like driving Jeff's Chopped Caddy with that wild Fat Lucky interior. This
Kustom Nerd felt like a Bad Ass.

"Gravey over all!" I'm eating there tomorrow.

 

Yes, I got a "new" old one and tossed the old "new" one if that makes any sense. LOL. I chunked the customized (if you can use that word for what they did to it) original and got a replacement stock one to go back in.

 

Love Murphy's

 

is that toad in there lol had to say it

 

You DO realize you just lost all your brownie points for the Okie of the year award?

 

You are sir, you are.

 

I know but it was funny as hell lolit was worth it

 

Merc is back on the road and I had my first successful test drive last weekend.
The motor thing is still over whelming. I was so shocked that day and don't know
how I can ever say thank you enough for the gift. It was a very kool day.

You guys have a safe trip over and I can't wait to see your Suburban scrap'n up the asphalt.

LOL!! That is so funny and true. I guess that I am the "Toad" of the Kustoms, no I'm
not, that is Doug Reed and he is very kool. The Toad in the movie got Candy Clark, I
got Renee, a lot of similarities..... Scary

Happy Trails, Mick

 

she'll be there thursday for ya, i'll just leave the keys in her and turn my back!

Happy Trails, Mick
