Title: Car Craft Summer Nationals July 18-20 2014 Minnesota State Fair Grounds
Post by: mdkd on July 08, 2014, 09:28:47 AM: All

I haven't been to the Car Craft Summer Nationals in years but it is happening in 1 1/2 weeks and my calendar is clear so the plan is to bring my white 65 GS HT.

I understand last year they had over 6,000 cars at the Fair Grounds which would make it the second largest show in this part of the country to the MSRA Back To The Fifties at 12,000 cars. Unfortunately the Back To The Fifties show doesn't allow cars newer than 1964.

It should be interesting.

Perhaps I will cross paths with new converts and old friends of the 65GS.com sort.

Happy Cruising.

Only 2 days left and the Car Craft Summer Nationals fire up here.

Next week is the BCA Nationals in Portland Oregon.

August 7-9 the BCA Heartland Regional is back here in Minnesota.

After he retired my dad always said he didn't understand how he had time to work before he retired and now I'm starting to understand what he was talking about.

Life is good! :hello2:

You are so right about retired life. Keep a work schedule so you know when the off days are, if you work overtime keep track and put the hours toward comp days.

Have fun guys!, wish I was going. Had some great times at the 80,81,and '82 CCSMNats with my '66 GS at the Indy and Springfield events. Also hit the '84 East event in Syracuse, NY. I gotta start getting out again.
