Title: BACK TO THE 50'S
Post by: wildhog on 2013-06-13 21:39
I will be at Back to the 50'S next week along with Allan ( Kiwi Ragtop) from New Zealand. We should be in the area of Cosgrove and Dan Patch Ave. This is close to were you pick up the mugs and by the Ladies craft center. Should have Blue and White Sunliner, Red Ranchero and Red and Gold 300. Stop by and say hi. Tom

If anyone has the opportunity to attend this show, you should.  Up to 15,000 pre 64 cars on display on the Minnesota state fairgrounds that is not only huge but well shaded in spots for comfort on hot days.  Everyone is driving around from area to area so you get a good review of most cars there.  Good swap meet as well but not many 57 fords!
I have attended this the last 5 years as we usually spend the summers at our lake cabin in northern Minnesota.  I wouldn't miss it if i was up there.

On my bucket list when I get mine done...that is unless some states in between adopt age restrictions for elderly drivers before then.
Wouldn't it be cool a few years down the road if we could organize a Tx/Co/ Ks cruise to Mn for back to the 50's. Kinda a reverse of the Austin Roundup!!

I have gone to it for many years. I actually thought my car would be ready this year. But I am current;y having issues with my new motor. I will still go, but one day I will start collecting my posters (every car that gets entered gets a poster, my bud with has about 12 now on his garage walls).
