    Norm Blackmer from CIC CHAPTER started this event 25 years ago. I'm glad he did. This was my 3 rd year participating and it was just alot of fun. What makes it so special is getting together with a grate great group of people.



    We would welcome your our appearance here next year. How about driving one of your cars here? You would be a shoe in for the longest distance award.



    By the time you arrived here your economy driving skills should be well honed.



    In 1981, when the speedlimit was 55 MPH, I drove my 64 El Camino from Elizabethton, Tn. to Burbank, Ca. and averaged 26 MPG. It made for a very long trip at that speed!!!



    Hope you and anyone else can make it here some time.

    Best layed plans of mice an men.. is how I remember the quote. I've made it to Laughlin several times and was planning to be there this year. Was going to bring the English Hudson, but, alas, I spent the weekend doing body work and paint prep. It is a great show, I will be there next year. From here in Northern Utah, it is a two day drive....

    the object of attention in the top photo is a '53 Hornet cp., driven down from Vegas, with a THICK Clifford head, Clifford intake manifold, a Demon carb., and a supercharger arrangement (I AIN'T into hot-rodding so can relate intelligently all the other attendant goodies) - I have several exc. "under the hood" pics of this car but don't know how to post them here.

    Other great cars: Buzz Stahl's '50 C8 cp. (1st outing), beautiful '49 C6 conv., gorgeous '36 T PU, etc.

    I've got the pics in Picasa but don't know how to transfer them here. Sent some to Sam last night.

    Had a great meeting with some of my oldest HET pals - at dinner Sat. night there were 5 of us, 3 of whom have belonged over 40 years!

    It was a great meet. Low turn out. I think there were about twenty-five or six cars this time. Usually we see around thirty-five or forty. Still a great meet and thanks for the pictures Matt. I didn't get to talk with you, you must of left early, or I was in the casino trying to get my twenty bucks back. Which never happened! :D

    Hey 'oldhudsons' I'm looking forward to seeing that super charged Hudson. It was only there for an hour or two I guess, and I missed it too.
