Classic week got off to a nice start yesterday.  Had a cruise through Carbon Canyon with Don Brown on the way over to Bill's house for our monthly meeting.  Nick's was pretty empty...a brief lull before the Friday night chaos latter in the week.  The weather is supposed to heat up for next weekend... Cool Cool Cool

Thanks you guys!!! Fabian, it's 155's up front and my same ( Casey ) 235 / 60 drag radials out back. I stripped the powder coating to reveal the original sandblasting, and just touched up the sandblasting where I needed to.

                                                             They are the Vredsteins, cool Holland made tire. Nice zigzag thread, and the sidewall looks right out of the mid sixties.

Nice pics, Sarge. The neighbors are okay with all of the Volks activity, yes? Hope SO.

Great shot of John's car... but what's with the homo Zenith Blue car in the background?

Somebody build that poor bum an engine, already.

Kobus,

Everyone has been asking about you, and if you were coming!

You are missed!  Hopefully next year you can make it!

See you in a few weeks at EBI2!  Hi to Monica!
