Ahhh......Vegas!!!
This weekend there are two kinds of car stuff going on here.............sort of a weird mix;
NHRA
Viva Las Vegas
I don't expect a lot of crossover...........

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Bob, there is a THIRD show........Rat City Ruckus. You won't want to miss that one, I know you love rat rods.
Word is that Viva has banned certain cars this year, so there may be a spillover of those to the Ruckus show.
How will you possibly get all of these in with such a short amount of time !

Suspension and exhaust should be completed today kenny, but we're still a ways from done.
Rat City Ruckus is a grundge band out of White Center (community within greater Seattle), damn rat rodders can't even be original about their naming!

He got burned real bad sometime around 1970 and had to quit. I guess he's still alive somewhere in Southern Cali.
Yeah, Brown is the real deal, if he can keep a good car under himself just imagine how good he'll be with some experience!Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
