My wife hasn't sent the entry in, I think I'm going to have to pay the extra dollar the day of the event! I don't know why it works this way but with all the weekends that have nothing going on, this same day is suppose to be the day Pinks is in Seattle, and it's the Pushrods car show in Hoquiam. I know the Pushrods show is a small show, there MIGHT be one other Buick there, but it's one that I never miss, and there are guys that I see there that I only get to spend time shooting the breeze with one time a year. I'll make the Friday night gathering for that show. Won't be a lot of the guys or cars there yet, but what the heck. I'm going to the Buick show, I just wish all the things I want to do weren't the same day! If I only made three events this summer, these would be the three that I went to!
I'm ready...I DID get the Day (well night) off!!! So I'm pretty stoked. Gonna drive it in from the Jail.... mmmmmmm..... wonder if I can get a Police Escort...:laugh: Chris, We still have a meeting on the 9th?? I'll bring that business card, and the Cat (with her new '63 License Plate)
Roy, You know I'll be there. Gonna drag my sorry carcass in from work that morning so I should be there pretty early. If we need any help anywhere I'll be available. Besides, it'll keep me awake. uzzled:
Shocks & rear swaybar go on tomorrow:TU: A few more shake down runs and off i go friday for a 5-6 hour drivep
I'm looking forward to it! After a couple weeks with nothing going on, this weekend has the big Buick show that I will be at, there is a show in Hoquiam that I'm going to miss for the first time in several years, and isn't Pinks going to be in town? Oh well, Friday night in Hoquiam for a warm up, Saturday in Puyallup, and if the weather holds, there should be lots of cars out and about in Longview! Should be a great weekend!
Sounds like a big turnout on Saturday. I looking forward to meeting some of folks I know online to meeting face to face. Weather man Says "low 70`s" But around here the best report is walk out the door and look. Til then Gary
No,your not worthy!!p :bla: Yes,yours will be there also.I guess i should bring a couple of extras,just in case:bglasses: Good weather would be nice,2 years ago i went thru 2 coats,2 hats and 2 t-shirts.If i would have had spare pants i would have changed them as well.Where are you staying overnight?
Thanks Jamie - but I really am worthy.:moonu: I am staying at the King Oscar motel just north of Puyallup on 167. A trucker motel - not much but it has a bed & shower and it is where I stay when I go to the Goodguys in late July. Close to Puyallup. Be there Friday night - stopping in Oly for dinner with the grand daughter - then the motel. Might even be up for a parking lot visit when I get there if any other Buicks are around.:beers2:
sunday looks like the bad day, for rain, looks like the pontiac guys are going to get wet. I will be there, dont know if I am bringing my kids or not. Never know I may fall asleep in the back seat of my buick again this year like I did last year.

Looking forward to seeing you all and the spectacular Buicks on Saturday! The Buick Open is always one of the high points of my automotive year, and we have the opportunity to "wow" Puyallup with an incredible turnout of vintage Buicks.
