    The Saturday night shine & show at Kroger's in Spring, TX will start on Mar 14. I'll be skiing in Colorado with my daughter's family. But Randy (the guy that organizes the show) is having a "pre-season" show this Saturday during the day about 5 miles from the regular season show. He tells me that he has 750 spaces reserved and if the weather holds (it is supposed to) he may fill them up.

    Location is about 1 block east of TX 249 on Louetta. See you there.

    And now for something other than AD trucks

    Also seen at this car show:

    Check out the hub caps of the flame job 70's Chevy truck. I missed them, but Ken didn't.

    The '35 Chevy truck has a blown small block.

    Then there is the picture of Ken taking a picture of a BWM R90 with sidecar that he thought Nate might like to see.

    And last, my favorite weirdo mobile in the whole show, a blown Pacer with A/C.

    Saving the best for last!

    In the first picture, you'll notice our resident AD wannabe's truck (Hanlon's awesome '57 GMC) parked as close as possible to 2 AD's. The orange '54 was my favorite of all the AD's at the show. The red one is one hot SOB that runs racing fuel and gets about 3 to 4 mpg. He ran out of fuel about a 1/2 mile from the show and needless to say his wife is probably still pissed at him. (Another story!)

    The Pacer reminded me of Wayne's World on steroids!:D

    Shows

    You guys have me itching for a car show! Won't start around here for a couple of months yet. I'd still like to see pictures of both of yours in the show.

    That Pacer is pretty cool!

    Probably the one Ken referred to as "the one with the ugly mug".
