Verona Hometown Rumble
« on: April 30, 2016, 09:06:44 AM »
This is the event we will be attending with Starc Traxler and some others. Starc is having a Buick party and there is a show. All are welcome. We are staying in Madison at the BW West Towne Suites the night of the 4th. We plan to drive the 65. Maybe see some of you there!

Dan, are you going to drive the yellow car down for this? John, it's pretty close for you too. The get together is at Starc's shop. Parties are more interesting when there's more Buick people there! Twin Cities guys, we're staying in Madison June 4 after the show and party. Staying at the Best Western West Towne Suites. Hope some of you can make it. Loren, I'll be handing out some cards there.

Several Buick's here, three nailheads. The 66 runs good, Starc put redlines on it, they squeal loudly! The 65 ran great on the trip. The band was great, so were the Bavaria brats.

Dear Jim, Chuck, and mid-60s Buick fans hot tires and hotter sausages, . . . .

Fancy redline tires - huh?   So where pray tell did Starc obtain such rarities?

Bavaia brats? . . . . Sounds delicious but alas a bit difficult to obtain here in California.  Are the even remotely close to the Nuremberg brats that can be found at Trader Joe's?

As the resident chief around here, curious minds want to know!

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

WOW, looks like a great time. For some reason you guys in  the northern states seem to get started early in the season. Must be the long winters. Us in Ohio are just getting started.
See you guys in BG.
