I'm up in Sandpoint, and there's a couple of other Mopar guys in this area.
There are allegedly a few Mopar guys in Coeur d'Alene, but I've only met one years ago.
Got a buddy in Meridian, Mopar guy & member here, and there's a fair amount of car culture around him.
Got a great drag strip in the area.
Mountain Home looks like a nice area.
Idaho is definitely not "west coast" in any sense; most of it's a lot like going back in time.

No longer a Mopars Unlimited Club here. Many of the people in the Mopar club have joined other multi-makes clubs, or sold their old cars and got out of it. There is a FB page for the club still up last I looked. Maybe one day the guy that ran the club will try to get it going again if enough people ask?

You can find car show listings for the whole state on the USRI website. The Emmett show and the Payette show are the biggest and best by far.

There is another car club that several of those Mopars Unlimited guys switched over to. I can't remember the name of it off the top of my head right now, but that would be a good place to connect to some of them.

At any rate the Mopar activity here is pretty thin now vs what it used to be say 10 years ago. Someone should start another Mopar club if that guy is not going to ever do anything with it, but I'm not sure there are enough peeps left who would join and participate.

Apparently Topside never makes it to Spokane. 😎

The northwest is loaded with car guys. Car clubs are passé. You’ll find plenty of classic cruise spots and shows in the Boise area in the summer. Hit the local speed shops when you get there. Firebird Raceway is still going strong from the looks of their website. They host some big events. There’s Hot August Nights in Lewiston if you want to venture that far north, and big shows in Spokane, Coeur d’Alene, and Sandpoint if you want to venture up into God’s Country. 😃. There’s a northwest classic car event flyer that comes out each year that lists events and clubs. Look for it when you get there.


I’m listening.

Not often, Big - honestly not a fan of the place.
Worked there for 6 years, can't believe now that I did that 130-mile round-trip commute for 9-10 hours of Hell.
I do go into the Valley to bug Scott Smith from time to time, though.

I went to Lewiston's Hot August Nights in 2019 and was really impressed with how well organized it was and the high quality of the cars. I am partially relocated to that part of the state and hope to be there permanently this spring. I believe the nearest track will be Spokane, about 130 miles or so. Hopefully some of the smaller cities have Cruise Nights in the summer?

I just moved to Nampa Idaho last month....and brought my Mopar with me. I am glad you dug up this old thread. I am looking forward to the car show and coffee and cars events when spring hits.
Niel (a member on here), lives in Eagle, we haven't had a chance to meet up yet.

Hi Andy, i looked up your shop, it is near where my son-in law works, Purple Sage Golf Course. I will swing by one day and say hello.

Loving it, some of the nicest people around, lots of outdoor activities. I even went ice fishing for the first time Sunday. In Nampa they had a cruise going on Saturday, hard to keep the gear heads down for long around here LOL.
Drag strip 15 minutes from my house smile extra bonus.

That would be great!! I am right down the street from there and drive by golf course every day on my way to work on Mopars at other work.
