I will certainly expect to be there along with Keith Anderson.

As in previous years Keith and I will be preparing the Minnesota State Fairgrounds for the Extravaganza on Sunday so we may be a little late.

BTW

I sold a house with a Pole Barn so I am challenged for space.

I have several nail heads and a 60 horse flat head.

These engines are in various levels of disassembled and haven't run since at least the 80’s

If your looking for parts or perhaps building a display engine this could be your answer.

I'm not excited about shipping this stuff.

1 1962 I think mostly complete and assembled

2 1963

2 1964

1 1936-37 60 hp Ford Flat Head

3 Dynaflow same age range assembled

Yes I have a 65 but that's what I drive so not for sale.

Post by: Robk on March 14, 2019, 06:51:12 PM: It's gonna be a good party no matter what but I will be truly amazed if the snow is gone. The snowplow piles are about 8 feet tall. We need a nice dry April to dry out the lot so we can park our cars there. But if not, we will make it work and have a good time no matter what. It's been a rough mid-west winter.

Post by: GS66 on March 14, 2019, 07:58:06 PM: You?re right Rob. I will be lucky to get the cars out by then. Let me know if you would like some
brats or chedderwurst or something.

Post by: cwmcobra on March 18, 2019, 05:00:45 PM: Oops, I have to scrub my attendance. Forgot that our grandson is being confirmed on the 5th. So I won't be making it this year. Glad that we have other events where I plan to meet up with some of you!

I have decided to thin the herd on my automobile dealership literature.

I was the kid that stopped at every display at the new car show with my bags full.

It started in mid 60s and dropped off a number of years ago.

I have something like 8 2’ long filing cabinet drawers full.

If there is anything in particular your interested in I could make it available at our 2019 65GS get together at Robs.

Post by: 35chevcoupe on May 05, 2019, 09:06:04 PM: I was there but did not get any photos , it appeared to be pretty much the same old cars . In fact the swamp meet was considerably smaller than it usually was and I think the car count was down also .
There was a chance of rain but most of it went north . We,ll try again next year .
