Re: Western New York!

I blew out my back and I'm out of work for the week. So, no work on the truck. I can't sit still for more than a few mins. So, I went and got some stuff for the interior and I am working on that right now.

Re: Western New York!

ok here is the details for the TRI FIVE car show

when
Sunday July 5th 2009

where
Great Pumpkin Farm
11199 Main St
Clarence, NY

time
gates open at 8am
registration closes at 12:30pm

prices
pre reg is $13 US dollars
$15 at the gate
entry fee admits driver and one passenger
all spectators are $7 and children under 12 are free

no trailered vehicles allowed on show field

contact info (im not associated with the club, i just know a guy from work who is in it)
716-634-1149

if anyone needs a form if they chose to pre register, i have a few left here and i can always get them from Rich who i work with, so let me know

i was thinking to roll in together we can meet at the nearby Eastern Hills Mall which is a few miles down the road and cruise in from there. The guy i know is always in charge of parking cars and said he will make sure we are all together.

Easy Up tents are a plus to bring since its always sunny in the open field, as well as some folding chairs, bring your cooler with water and whatever drinks you want. pop and beer has usually been free, i will make sure 100% what the answer is to that this year (reason for charging spectators) so if you are over 21 and care to drink responsably, do so. Drunk driving is one thing i cant stand and will not be a part of it. bring some snacks or food and a grille, they usually have a hot dog stand a Mrs Ribs Mobile Kitchen there cookin some good things

Re: Western New York!

Its spider webs. For the Spider steering wheel, and Im painting the truck a flat black with some old school pinstripes and a few webs on it. But I need some old steel rims from the 80's 15" with the moon cap and the chrome ring.
