time to sift through the garage and dig out everything you want to re-distribute through the club. Last year we saw tool boxes, engines, and all kinds of stuff. Who knows what this year will bring, except for what you yourself bring.

Anyone want to do this again? Need to get info if they will be open and such.

Last year NCC spent a few hours doing some volunteer work for Feed My Starving Children. Over about 2 hours we measured, bagged, sealed, labeled, boxed, and palleted enough meals to feed 53 children for a year! And had a lot of fun doing it. Feed My Starving Children is located in Coon Rapids, near Hwy 6...

I will be doing a lot of work to the 66 over the winter and was wondering if the club would like to do a meeting/tech session here. I will be completely disassembling the front suspension and steering for a rebuild. I also need to replace the core support and pull the engine/trans to replace the oil pan and...

Need time to decompress. Holy cow. I had a blast, and it's somethign to see, but I don't think I could do it every year. Since it's aimed at the business-to-business crowd, there's a lot that just doesn't interest the regular guy. I did meet a few Team Chevelle guys, chatted with Scott P, and worked on a de...

The new issue of Car Craft is out (Jan 2011) with the Real Street Eliminator coverage in it from St. Paul.

(FYI- I saw an episode of Hot Rod TV last night, covering las...

Dan Neinstadt aka DNeinstadt also got into Car Craft this month. You might not recognize his car since it's a black 03 Mustang Cobra, but he's on the same page as Derek but higher up. There's also a pic on the next page with him on the dyno. Congratulations Dan.

Some are form camera phone, most were taken in the 1/4 second between people wandering into a shot. Lots of people. Lots of wandering. I know I missed at least one area altogether too. Brief recap: AAPEX show is a waste unless you are looking for an asian manufacturer/importer. There were some manufa...

This coming Sunday is the Twin Cities Roadsters swap meet at the state fairgrounds. It's a pretty big event, taking up the entire gravel lot on the North side. Last year it even spilled over into the gravel lots to the West. Provided it doesn't rain, I'll be there trying to hock my junk, I mean valuable ca...

Looks like they are starting to use what they got from this year's show. I haven't seen it yet, but I heard that 67SS ChrisP's engine made it into a overview section. He's still pretty jazzed, and it's been a couple days since he saw it.

Brian, is there a meeting tomorrow night at Fudrucker's per the website events page? Been real quiet on here about it if there is. Sorry if I missed a post about it... I plan on making it since I have to work late tomorrow night and my new job isn't far from St. Louis Park.

Derek and I headed down to the "Run to the Hills VI" last weekend in Pigeon Forge, TN. Since his O/D was shot, he had to trailer. I got my new engine installed and got to drive the car for all of 15 miles to road test it before we hit the road and drove it 1,010 miles. LOL! We got there at 11:00 AM on fri...
