Hey, Y'all, made it down from New Jersey, but blew a headlight bulb during the trip.
I'm in need of a Euro style barndoor headlight bulb.
If anyone has one 12 Volt, 45/40W please let me know.
The original part number is N177012
alternatives are:
Flosser 24540
or other brand 49671
Please let me know.
Thanks,
j.

I know you're kidding, Ivan, but I'd really rather not have to drive home 1100 miles padiddle.

There is still time.
We are heading down tomorrow. But I will check the form late tomorrow while at the party at Kips.
If you aren't sure about coming, no worries, you can register when you get there!
These are the classes, so chose the one that best fits your bus
Custom
Stock
Vintage
Passenger
Commercial
Camper

I am not going to be able to make it to Friday Go Karts due to many circumstances outside of my control.

That is the place where we went last year, the address is on the home page and its about 10 mins from the BB show location. If you all show up as a group they can run you no problem - there is no reservation. I would stick with the 1:00 time in case someone that is planning on going does not see this....
Thanks,

Bringing this to the next page...
We're in St Pete now, see you guys tomorrow! |

|
|
A few of us going to the bulli got a crappy reception from JC in the office at Ft. Desoto Campground. This morning we met with the supervisor who said that JC would get a formal disciplinary write up, verbal admonishment, and retraining in cultural diversity and general courtesy.
We hope that our conference will make others' arrival pleasant and that all vehicles, including RV sites, are scrutinized for alcohol, overpopulation, and quiet time equally (including the raucous playground).
Beautiful campground, repressive atmosphere; as for us we're getting out of here. |

| Safe to say that show was pretty impressive. Not sure how it was in the early days but that show was probably the busiest that I have seen it. Very nice job on the location and organization. |

I agree.
Robert Kennedy and his team did a great job, and I was pleasantly surprised by the staff at Quaker Steak and Lube. The outdoor seating for lunch at the show was really nice. I'm not a big fan of parking lot shows in general, but with the facilities of the restaurant and hotel available, this is as good as it gets for this type of show.
I know I'll be back.

Thanks to everyone who helped lay out the event. We hope to see you guys in the Spring. Nice to meet you other folk for the first time.
The prizes were over the top.
On the way down a truck driver made this shot and saw us at a Flying J later in the day:

Gotta love a show location that you can get a good Bloody Mary at.
Good place for the event.
