Two of my favorites!!! Can't really recommend the fish sandwich while you are suffereing a heat stroke though.
I believe we covered the WHOLE thing. We tailgated with hamburgers and hot dogs for lunch both days. "Nourishing" Snacks were Hershey's ice cream and cookies. Next time I'll plan on a day and a half. I was draggin' the afternoon of the second day. A lot of vendors and corral cars were pulling out Sat afternoon.
I was there Thursday, Friday and Saturday.... awesome show! Took us that long to get through all the vendors, and that was just walking down the center of each isle and cherry picking any vendor that looked interesting. I found a set of four nice chrome center hubs for my factory alum. slotted rims, the guy was firm and wanted $60 (tried several times on different days to get him lower, lol) but they were in good shape so I caved. I also purchased a alum. sport steering wheel with leather grips, looks very similar to the Ford factory ones. Bought a temp. gauge and a '79 Thunderbird Heritage brochure (would love to find a '79 t-bird to purchase, anybody know where there is one in decent condition?). My bud bought a front clip to a '79 Olds Toro, which we'll restore to hang on his garage wall. Anyway, awesome experience all around... except for that d*mn hill... it's a killer on the legs after the 50th time....lol.
Did you see the Grabber in the corral? Really nice. When I saw it on Friday the price had been marked down a couple of times to $9K. Saw it leaving Sat PM but don't know if the driver was new owner or not.
No, I didn't see it, can't believe I missed it. Was this one of the cars in the auction? If so, I didn't go across the street to see those cars....
Yeah, I thought so too, and bonus... the center steer heads looks really good as well, so I won't be forced to utilize the re-popped ones....
Craig, not that the re-popped ones aren't awesome...... but I'd rather have original...... I even saw some "Stallion" center emblem stickers ones on eBay, which might be cool, but I didn't buy any....
Ugg. I just looked at their website and I will be missing the All Fords Nationals this year for a friends wedding. Well I guess I will have to wait till next year again.
