The Heritage Show is here upon us again in Whitesburg, KY on September 6,7 and 8th.

Vehicle Entry Fee is $20.00
Spectator & Parking is FREE! Camping is also FREE!

It's a truck show mainly of minitrucks, lifted trucks, and pretty much everything in between!

I'm making plans to make the show, myself... There's a few members down that way (Doc this means you) that could possibly meet up!

Here's a flyer-

 

I wish I could go down there this weekend. Looks like a fun time!

 

The girly friend and I are going in the AM and I'll be taking TONS of pics to share.

 

Just not my thing, even though it is right here in my hometown. I applaud L.M. for what he has created, but I just can't personally get excited about those low rider trucks. My friends went. They said there was a big crowd.....

 

Doc, there were some nice 30's, 40's and 50's vehicles there.. A few trucks, a few muscle cars, etc.

Not everything down there had airbags...

I made the trip for $35 in fuel, and got 18.61 mpg for the trip (Approx.) and that included driving in whitesburg, etc.

 

Ahem! You know what's coming, right?

 

Did I read in another thread that there's another show in Whitesburg next weekend?

 

I think that's Doc's show....

 

My girlfriend MADE me take pics of this one..



















There, ya pic hounds!

 

I wouldn't exactly call it a show, but I'm hosting a second annual gathering of the members of the 1948-56 FTE forum at my place. About 18 members will be there, with about 12 trucks total (counting my own). It's pretty small and laid back. We'll just sit around the campfire and see who can tell the tallest tale. This gathering is MUCH different than Heritage 2K. We're much older (I'm probably the youngest at 39), and, considering it happens on my private property with my kids riding their bikes up and down the driveway, I keep a pretty tight leash on who attends and how they act. Campsprings, you are welcome to come by and take a look if you want. I work very hard to limit it to people we "know" on FTE. One guy is already here. He drove his 1952 F-1 with a stock flathead from a place called Albuquerque (I'm not sure, but I think that's on the other side of Hazard somewhere ). I live between Blackey and Whitesburg out in the sticks. I've worked really hard to keep it a family-type atmosphere. You won't see anybody flopping around drunk (or some dude wearing a Batman mask), and we'll probably all be in bed by midnight. I know--the police are on standby. Our cruise is nothing more than the period correct trucks riding up through town, up on Pine Mountain, getting lunch, and then coming back to my place.

 

Doc, if there's any way I can do that, I will. Weekends have become very busy for me with the kids and sports. I would love to bring the family down to that part of the state. They've never been there. In fact it's been a while since I've been there myself. I was down near Harlan on 119 a couple months ago.

 

I guess I'm literally a blacksheep at 24; In that I could literally go to Heritage and then drop by Doc's and have 0 issues with the non-alcohol, etc...

They changed my schedule at work, and instead of getting OFF work at 4pm, I now have to go IN at 4pm. I seriously wanted to cut someone...

So unless some wild weather kicks up in the manager's head, I'm not gonna be able to make it, Doc.

But feel free to hop over to the BS threads, etc! Good to see ya on the boards.
