I realize with COLA especially gas & lodgeing going up was wondering if any of the chapter folks beside me plan on attending?

 

I am planning on being there. I don't have any room plans yet. Gasbuddy.com says its going to cost be $112.50 for gas there and back! The hotel we stayed at last year looks to be the same.

 

Im just gonna drive up early Saturday morning if I go and just stay the day...

 

A buddy of mine & I are going for the whole week bascically Wed - Sun; Our wife's will be coming over on Friday evening. We're taking alot of 70's thru late 50's parts to sale. Purchase a swap meet spot this year to off load some extra's. Hope to break even with all exspense. Well see lol.

 

Where and when, boy I will be glad to see my 73 again one day.

 

Mark; Supernationals will be bascially the second week in May; 17th thru 19th; there's a website as well.
This event is in its 30 plus years event and located in Pigoen forge, In my opinion its not as nice as back when Pat ford ran it; but we all have to learn to adapt to change.

 

Yea with gas the way it is,we just gonna do Saturday...Olus planning on going to Fun Ford Weekend in Bristol in June I think

 

Gonna need to find help to get my slider setup on a hinge for my 73 it seems, not sure it'll be ready for the nationals, I need some seats now, and no passenger seat until the lift is moved.

 

Mark are you in Maryville or where now? If you get a chance; try posting a thread in the chapter; if I can't help ya maybe some other chapter members can!

 

In Maryville, once the guy gets the seat base in, I'll be going to get it, he just doesn't have the health to do the work, he had heart surgery last year, shouldn't be working on anything. I'm afraid my seat is too big too, factory non reclining low back, not good for my condition, doesn't have my needed support.

 

Almost less than 2 weeks away and my truck isnt ready yet lol

 

Mitch it was good to see you. I posted some pics from the F100 Supernationals and the Nashville Goodguys show in the 48 - 56 Forum.

I went to the GG show and found out that the shows are on the same weekend again next year. I agree show is different than when Pat had it. Will try to make it up to Whitehouse in July.

 

Still waiting on my 73, I really need some seats to pull this crap off, getting my hands full, once it's back and drivable, I have to fix the white one, if it'll hold out that long, beginning to think I'd be better off replacing the lift in it with another like the one in it.

 

Donald; it was cool to finally met ya face to face; we had a good time at Supernat's as well; first time as a swap vendor; made some great contact' s and even heading over to Glasgo Ky; tomorrow to look at some old rusty trucks for future builds.
hopefully see ya and the rest of the chapter members at Whitehouse as well.

 

That is one of the pluses of doing the swapmeet. The contacts you make are worth a ton. I met quite a few last year and this year. Hey if you see any 53-56's on your way to Glasgow send me a private message regarding.
