Interesting...
We're headed out semi-early and *should* be there around 9:00 am.
Hopefully....

Busted !
I know it's the threads that gave it away too... cause you know I'm the type that rocks out plaid pants 3 sizes too big and 6 inches too short...

We had a gret time, first time there, the location was awesome and the breeze from the water kept things nice and cool despite being a really hot day, I'll post some pictures later.

Big props to Paul for holding it down in John's absence today, good job bro, way to come through for a friend.
I uploaded some pictures already, who ended up picking up our best of show watercool award? with the heat and all we ended up leaving a little early.

Yes, indeed. Paul, Dan, Ed, and Casey, Bruno, and whoever else helped out. I thank you.
As many of you know, my father passed on Sunday morning.
Of course, I couldn't do the show, but Paul and Jodi really came through.
I cannot thank them enough.

j.pickens sorry for your loss we haven't met but naturally I heard through the grapevine.
It was a great show we drove all the way out from VA/MD area and its now a tradition! Great people and great weather I really liked the feel of this show.
Maybe next year my body and chassis will be back together on my 57 and I can drive up! Thanks again to you and the rest for putting together a nice day.
Edit - adding some pics
My old man stayin cool-

Sorry John...
I didn't have the chance to find out or talk to who owns it...but that Hurst and the HWE / BeKoWa rack turned me on too.
That lifted corner-window was one of my daughter's favorites.

Now that Manny I.D'd it, I should have known.
Stan had this at Atco a few weeks back.
I even bought four tires off the roof of the bus, which I still need to finish paying for. Sorry Stan, I'll catch you up.
The front view looks really good in that photo.
And thanks, everyone, for the kind words.

Thanks for the props all. Thanks John and Ann for setting everything up and going over stuff beforehand. Thanks to my Wife who was a good sport, Bruno, Danny, Ed, Casey, Rich(otherwise my Wife would have roasted) and everyone else at the show who were kind enough to deal with me. Of course, i wish i never had to do it though.
