We'll be driving right thru there on the 7th on our way out to the OR coast. Calculating our available timeline though, we wouldn't reach there till 5pm
.
Unfortunately we can't depart earlier, bummer. I guess I'm square.

I happen to know a 1929 German Scout Car replica will be there this year. Lots of good stuff to see.

Was a fine get together. Picked up a 24V Dwell/Tach meter w/o manual( see my wanted post).. A good pal gave me a matching orig set of M170 data plates and patent plate with delivery of 2-62. The ambulance has long since been scrapped and the plates are all that remain. Great man-cave deco.
If they launch the decoy rockets my camp is TOAST!
I LOVE this truck, 1939 Dodge VC5.. WOW!!
Airing out the Centurion.
Me with Jim and Joe's bobbed 35, M37 and "Pearl" the harbor mule.
The story on the GPA is it was purchased as you see here for $60g, will go in for complete resto then ship to a collector in England..DEEP POCKETS!
Lots of nice iron on display and for sale..
