I'd love to go Dave.....just gotta find a '70 grille for my Challenger. It amazes me that
they've never altered the cut off year after all this time.

It does seem weird doesn't it.

Maybe they figure eventually it will be quite the thing, since even the newest cars will be realy old. Even now, close to 40 years.

I sent a Facebook message to Tim to see if he's coming, but no answer yet.

Should be fun.

If anyone comes looking for us there, this is my rig at Mission last year.....

We typically pit along the river. Follow the return road along the river till you pass through a fence and we'll be there..
Behind the half track concession stand/washroom.

Be sure and post pics for those of us who can't come because of work...

Seduce the attractive, and charm the rest. ****** 489 C.I.D., roller cam, aftermarket heads, tunnel ram, stock '54 Dodge rear axle assembly: which of these doesn't belong?

I don't like the hot, but I do prefer it to rain.

Hopefully we don't get both.
