KJ's Dodge Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Wow! That is an amazing turn out. I may have to try and make it down there one of these years from Washington as well. KJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John-T-53 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 (edited) I had a great time...well worth the drive! In addition to all the trucks, I enjoyed the scenery of the countryside up there. Those are some good backroads to cruise on! But most importantly, Thank you Tim! Edited April 9, 2012 by John-T-53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48Dodger Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I want to thank everyone who found time to help out at the event...I had a great time! Claude and his son Joe Church show up every year on a friday and do a ton to bring the loose ends together. My son Zac, his mowing and hauling abilities and my daughter Karissa, her shopping and food prep skills. Also I gotta acknowledge my Brother John, Bob Koch, and Jim shepard for inspiration I know how hard everyone works to make it each year, and I understand the frustration those guys feel when the deal falls short. We had a few who really wanted to be here this year, and I wanted to tip my hat to them for doing what they could to be here. Reg Evans: not feeling up to snuff Gary Martin: was on his way, fuel failure, had to return home Budstruck: work tomsb2b: family DollyDodge: engine not done monkeytruck: baseball funraiser event (he's a coach) gentlemen from Modesto: sick (1937 sedan) Don Coatney: keeps forgetting the right day to be here (lol) It's worth noting that John-T-53 was on his way and broke down. He had his truck towed back home, stuck a screw driver in it and hit it with his favorite hammer. It started up and he hit the road again and made it! (2 hour trip) I haven't got the whole story on Gary's panel truck yet, but he's been here the last three years without fail....hope its an easy fix. Again, thank you everyone.....it's my favorite time of the year, and seeing that many Pilot-house Trucks in one place is always a thrill. Timothy A.

msjenkins Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Man, seeing all those trucks sure makes me miss mine. I was going to come over and bring my truck replacement but its not quite ready yet. I plan on trying again next year. Who know, I might have another Dodge by then.

Jim Shepard Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 I had a great time and am sorry Reg and others didn't make it. I especially had a nice time talking with Doug Johnson about his cool '50 Plymouth sedan. It's a three speed with factory overdrive, which is the unit I want to eventually put in my truck. Doug was kind enough to take me and Charlie for a ride to see first-hand how the OD works. What a difference! 60mph and not a peep out of the motor. Thanks Doug. Also, I was glad John made it after his early troubles - nothing a screwdriver can't fix. Here's a photo of Doug's car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ194950 Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Thanks for the kind comments Jim! Hope you find one an OD unit that fits, reasonable, to install. Love mine! I did have fun. Really appreciated the welcome from everyone at the BBQ! Stay in touch, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48Dodger Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Of course you and your muscle car are welcome! Do a search for the other BBQ years, and you'll see lots of cars from the 60/70's era. 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
