I think I just saw your car pass by the Cracker Barrel in Auburn around 6:30. I will check it out tomorrow and say hello! Nice car!

There's nothing like a Rouge vehicle to draw attention. Thanks for bringing it.

Yes, bring water and a large hat -- it was 92 and humid today when we arrived.

30ccpickup,
A lot of were first timers at one point too. Even my old truck was greeted with respect and we quickly became part of the family of the Early V8 club! We should be there early in the evening.
Cheryl is looking forward to the event, but just not sure how well she will hold up in the heat.
Are the cars on tarmack or grass?
Regards,
Chris and Cheryl

The show field happened today, and later was a cruise-in around the square in downtown Auburn.

Vehicles on display outside the Court House at Auburn.
The grass is nice and green at this location.

Compare the nice green grass at the 2009 Early Ford V8 Nationals - Auburn

I don’t think the grass has fully recovered from the building project shown in the picture with the two yellow shoebox convertibles. It sure was a great place to cool off.

I had my Junker in there at the meet. It did not rain just a heat wave. Still better then winter. Lots of very nice cars to look at. There was 6, 32 Fords line up in the show. Now to go to N.Y. in Sept. Going to take my Clunker up there also. Does it snow up there in Sept?

Yep! Wish I could have been there. Our church is building a new sanctuary and I wanted to be there to help out this week. We had a volunteer framing crew in from all over the country this week and got our new 10,000 sq. ft. building framed in and plywood on the walls and roof. Great to see it going up.
