Message me if you are interested...it would be nice to get some Ford Trucks in there, hopefully mine will be making it's debut..so the Best Truck and Best Ford is locked up for me...just kidding.

***For you tractor guys...there is a Tractor Show on the 2nd and an Ag Parade, I don't have the information for that stuff though.

 

Mine is getting to be less of a show truck all the time... after this last trip, my sister ended up taking it to Colorado, blew a tire, ripping the rear fuel neck out again,as well as the front, and took out the brake line this time. Now I have to drop the rear tank because the fill hose was exposed for rain and crud, so I don't want to take the chance on that garbage getting into my fuel system. The positive point is that I needed to drop it to work on the fuel gauge anyway... I'll have to see about getting my behind over there though. I wouldn't win most beat truck, but it seems to be getting there...
If I have to adhere to the 77 and older, I guess that means I would have to push my 77 to get it in place, since it hass decided to not run unless I opur gas down the carb... maybe one of these days I fiddle with it some more. I figure it's a carb issue, just gotta get back to working on it again...

 

Didn't see you there, truck not quite ready?

 

i couldn't enter anyway so i didn't even bother..i was on the board to help recruit so we couldn't enter the show..and i worked anyway over at Drake's.

 

That makes sense... I got there late, so didn't get to spend a lot of time looking unfortunately.

 

I stopped at the show real quick over my lunch hour (work at KINZE). Looked like a really good show and A LOT of nice looking cars. Had the wife with me so I didn't get to stay very long, it was too hot..... Oh well.

 

The parking fiasco was my main complaint, not enough time for me to have made use of the bus and remote location. Did you get to see the Kinze display? Pretty cool!

 

Yep, the Kinze display is about the same that we do for the Farm Progress Show every year (minus the antique tractor display).

 

The antiquers were what I liked the best, the mini Massey was pretty cool...
