KELMO Posted September 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Charlie may show up in a SWDP shirt, but he's gonna leave in DCDC shirt(smiley emoji here). I told Greg last year that if it weren't for our wives, he and I would be useless. Becky does a killer job. We spent most of the day yesterday in the hangar cleaning vehicles, packing what we could, and staging what we couldn't pack. And, as luck would have it, we are trying to adopt a 7 month old Husky puppy out of Cali. If all goes well the puppy will come home with us from Williams. Can't wait to see everybody again 2 Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 The weatherman sez rain in New Mexico on Friday, but sunny in Arizona Friday and Saturday. So the weather should be good this year at the show, but I have a feeling I am going to have to clean the car when we arrive on Friday. Meh, I'll just show her dirty. 2 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Kelmo are you bringing Hot Wheels? Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Charlie, don't be silly. Yes of course I am bringing Hot Wheels. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 700 of them. Lots of Datsuns, some Mopar, some Chevy, some Ford, and a few Tomica/Tomy things. Hell, there may even be some original Redlines. We will have some T shirts also but not too many as it is hard to sell a shirt that has New Mexico all over it in Arizona. So, you're really gonna be there this year? Are you bringing your dog? 4 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 This show had a great turn out. Visited with many old friends and meet many new ones. There was many trucks this year and some other Japanese cars, Mazda, Honda, and even an early right hand drive Suzuki 4x4 that was only 48" wide. There s was a really neat pink and white fade Nissan Figaro. Nissan Figaro 3 Quote Link to comment

We put 500 miles on it getting to and from the show, top speed was about 60-65mph. She was floored at winning the award. 2 Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted October 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Aaron, your wife is pretty cool. She hung out a bit at the booth and even bought some Hot Wheels. This year's show was one of the best since the start of it 9 years ago. Greg and Becky (mostly Becky) did an outstanding job. There were many cart/trucks there that had not been there before and some cars that have been there almost every year and it turned out to be a really good mix of people and cars. It was great to see old friends and meet new ones. I actually took pics this year and as soon as I can get them transferred and blah, blah, blah, I will get some posted. 3 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) That Figaro is a sweet car! Edited October 8, 2019 by Charlie69 2 1 Quote Link to comment
Chopper Jim Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Thank you all that came out. It was nice to see old friends & meet new ones. Very good time and fantastic weather. That Figaro was cool. Well deserving of an award. Now we want to know, is the top a canvas or hard top. Charlie69 & I want to know. Chopper Jim 2 Quote Link to comment
