Event Coverage Who is going to the huge Iola Wisc swap July 9-12th ??

well bob, I am really the popo, but when Im not working I could give a sh*t about it all. lol

and about Poverty the only warrant I know he has out for him is a hand shake and a hello from me.

I ran it past the wife and she wasn't interested in going after joining me at the Cedar Rapids swap and not having a good time. We are supposed to go to a family birthday but I will know more at the end of the week.

Im going to see if Slickster or Onelow want to go and make it a fun trip rather than driving 5 hrs by myself each way.

 

Thursday is the best day to go. I am gone by Saturday AM, nothing left.

 

Where's Symco?

 

Man, you let the cat is out of the bag. Now everyone will know where it is. You can't keep anything a secret. Darn you Krooser!

 

anyone from the southern wi ara goin up friday morning ? maybe interested in a convoy ?

 

Not making promises, but I hope to go.

Everything I want probably won't fit in my Jeep, neither, lol.

 

We are heading up sometime later Friday AM. Will likely take the truck/trailer. PM me with your schedule and give me your cell. number is you want me to pick up the pieces along the way

 

Ok looks like Im not going, my weekend will be filled with family stuff and helping Slickster finishing his frame. atleast something hot rod related.

Wish I could be there but doesnt look like its going to happen. Poverty if you stop by on the way back let me know, we can go to the Machine Shed for grub

 

Rick and I will have Symco banners up at our sites. We will be taking registrations for the Shakedown. Save $5 and get extra chances at the engine we are giving away for signing up early. We will also be selling weekend wristbands for only $10!!! I am at swap spaces BN 5-8. Back by the car corral.

 

I am all packed and ready to go to Iola. Stop by our camp site J/K 28/29 and say "HI" to a few HAMBers !

AS11-AS12... on the paved road just west of Gate #2.

Free beverages as usual... look for the Triumph roadsters.

 

My son John and I will be in the camp ground at D29 & E29 Look for the old silver Avion camping trailer, and stop by and say hi. Brian

 

Hey PoPo, sorry you can't make it. I am here at Iola now and the weather could not be nicer so far. Quite a circus here so far with vendors arriving. Would love to meet you at the Machine Shed for a good hearty meal on the way home if possible. Not sure of my "escape" route home yet.

 

I'll be there friday or sat, not sure which. trying to trade this truck and jet boat combo for a hamb friendly rod

 

We went to Iola today and had a good day.I bought the 3 main pieces of my '49 grill ,2 pieces NOS in the wrapper and the other is rechromed for $450.I found a small old looking tach for $35 and lots of food!!! Spent some time talking to Cliffy about the Symco Shakedown ( make sure you preregister ) and had an overall great day!! PAUL

 

Had a great time, met Falcon Man and PBRMESAP. The weather was good, the campground was dusty until the rain Friday night. Didn't seem to be as many people hauling stuff out of the swap meet as other years. Way less motor homes in the campground. On the positive side there were more young couples with kids in the campground with tents or small campers then other years. Good to see more young people getting into the hobby. Brian

 

Brian,

It was good to met you as well. See you next year !

Doug

 

Good meeting you guys, maybe next year we'll have a few real cars in the campsite. Falconman.....
how does it sound when your wife's mouth is half full????
