I am not sure if the Midway Expo center would be a good idea or not. I think they usually RENT that place out. They probably wouldn't care for a bunch of guys hanging out in their lot unless we are willing to fork out some cash.
Any Thoughts?

 

HEY ALL,

I WAS SCROLLING THOUGH OUR POST AND REALIZED WE ONLY HAVE A HANDFULL OF PEOPLE HERE. WE NEED TO GET THE WORD OUT TO EVERYONE. IF YOU KNOW A GOOD TRUCK OR CAR CLUB IN MO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW AND I WILL SEND THEM AN EMAIL LETTING THEM KNOW THAT THIS FORUM EXIST AND THAT THEY ARE INVITED TO JOIN US.

IF YOU DIDN;T ALL KNOW MY NAME IS STEVE.
I GUES I SORT OF TOOK THE POSISTION TO PLAN OUR GET TOGEATHER. I AM NOT REALLY 100% FAMILIAR WITHT HE COLUMBIA AREA BUT I WILL TRY MY BEST AT IT. DOC (F100 DREAMS) HAD A REALLY GOOD POINT. IS THIS GOING TO BE A ONE DAY DEAL OR A WEEKEND THING? IF IT IS A WEEKEND THING I SUPPOSE WE NEED TO EITHER FIND A CAMP SITE OR A PARK. I GUESS WE COULD EVEN GET HOTELS, BUT WE NEED TO KNOW FOR SURE. I NEED SOME HELP AS TO WHAT PARKS ARE AROUND THAT AREA AND SUCH. I WAS THINKING EVERYONE ROLL IN FRIDAY NIGHT SOMETIME, WE ALL GET TOGEATHER STATURDAY, HAVE LUNCH, CRUISE OUR TRUCKS AROUND TOWN, AND THEN HAVE DINNER SOMEWHERE. THEN WE COULD ALL DRIVE HOME SUNDAY.

YOUR FAMILIY IS INVITED, BRING EM' ALL LOAD EM' UP AND SHIP THEM OUT. THERE'S NOTHING BETTER THAN WHEN THE FAMILIY'S ARE INVOLVED, THIS MAKES IT TWICE AS FUN.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU ALL THINK

Hey all I just joined...Sounds good to me on this Columbia,MO. get together.. I live just north of brookfield,MO. and the wife and I would love to join the Missouri chapter..we have a 1968 F250 that we just bought 2 weeks ago..and belive me it needs work, but with your alls ideals we can get it in top shape..I used to be a chevy man until my wife converted me..so if someone can let me know when and where we will be there..THANKS,Travis

 

Actually, Steve has taken the lead on all the logistics for the meet up. His email is theracingtouch@charter.net . Look forward to meeting you and the family. Once again, welcome! Doc.

 

hey guys theres a group in branson called somthing like fat fendered ford or somthing like that and they have a huge get to gether every year in branson. I came accross their web site the same day i found FTE though I didnt look in to them that much at the time we might can talk or email them and see if they would be interested in our group?

 

sorry to say this, but branson=ick IMHO (couple bad experiences there ) but that is beuatiful country down there, and the people are great, and any kind of function like that could be really fun.

on a side note, think that we could join in on any another, larger, club in MO? itd be easier for us to plan, plus thered be even more enthusiasts to hang with. or even something like the next Fun Ford Weekend that hits Gateway? IIRC they did that twice last year (knew about once, not sure about the other)

 

Hi Everyone! Columbia sounds great just say when. Joining in at an event would bring in a larger group of people though. Gateway had a Ford Challenge listed May 16-18, KCIR has a Ford Weekend on July 12-13, and the Show Me F 100's have a show in Branson the weekend of July 11-13. I live in the KC area so Columbia is only a couple of hours away and St Louis maybe 5 hours same for for Branson.

 

I'll try to make it but the only ford that is together right now is my 97 explorer

my 93 is getting a new motor
my 84 is waitning for me to put it motor in it
my 79 has a 429 waiting on it
my 76 need me to get off my butt and finish the exhuast and bed
my 76 wrecker is pissed off ot me right now
my 71 360 is on it's death bed got the death rattles baaaaaad

man I need a 6 month PAID vaction to fix these trucks

 

Has there been anymore Planning on a get together for this summer ?

 

Not that I know of Trouble. Theracingtouch (Steve) was suppose to be doing it (I volunteerd him, lol), but I haven't heard anything from him in a while. Maybe the war has his hands tied, he is a Army guy. Doc.

 

Hi guys, Im fairly new but the fun ford weekend is a huge show and lots of fun. I went last year and had a blast. But im up for anything as long as i get to see some nice ford trucks all at once.

 

i was thinking about going to that, if theres one in stl next year, i might even enter the truck, i hope to have a cam, header, and possibly new gears in by the end of next summer. that would be kinda kool to go to this year though, how bouts it guys?

oh, and welcome to the MO chapter, JFord!!!

 

Were is the Fun Ford Weekend held at??? Might be something i'd be interested in going to.. Thanks JOHN

 

the last few times its been held in stl, its been at gateway international.
