I'm hoping to be there. I probably wouldn't be in my 72 even though its sitting Justin the other side of the lake with a really fast leaking pinion seal. I'd also be down for a meet an greet in the Springfield are.

We are in for a Fordification Meet & Greet in Springfield. Would like it closer but that is being selfish.

I am looking forward to meeting all you guys from here at the show. If our truck does not make it we will be in a maroon Blazer 4 dr. We are only doing Saturday in hopes parts arrive in time Friday so we can take our truck. Yes she is a slave driver forcing me to swap starters on Friday just to make the show Saturday.

A meet & Greet would be great and Springfield is close for me. In fact, I have to go into town once a week, (usually on Tuesdays) anyway. Perhaps sometime in September or October it would be cooler, but I'm close, so I can afford to be flexible to the needs of the others who have to travel farther.

I just got home from Branson. It was a good show, but the only Bump that I saw was a beaut belonging to Dennis Wissmann. I took several pics of it, and invited him to join us here and on Facebook. He sounded interested in us. I only found one fellow Fordification member, Brandon (didn't get his last name)" FordTruck", from Arkansas. I had the announcer make an announcement for all Fordification members to meet at the booth, and first call got no response, but after lunch, Brandon responded, and we chated for quite a little while. There were a lot of Slicks and F1's, and of course many 53 -56's. There was a 35 pickup that was just perfect. Does everyone want to see all the pics, to see the diversity, or just post the Bump pics? I also need to know if i can post all to the website, or should I post them to Photobucket?

I went Friday and stopped by Saturday. my sisters 1950 F-1 broke down on the way there sauturday :cry: they decided to wait to replace the radiator... bad idea. but i found no fortification trucks that i could remember seeing on here. nor heard an announcement. sorry :doh: but it was a great show. i found some inspiration and more modivation to finish my truck. i do wish they would choose a better location with a bigger parking lot next year.

I had a family emergency that popped up Thursday morning. I was unable to make it. I had preregistered about a month ago. Oh well maybe next year. Post all pics please. You can house them here in your gallery & if I remember correctly you can put all of them in a single post.

I wasn't able to get Fred roadworthy in time, and it doesn't have A/C, so the wife wasn't hot on driving it, anyway, so we were in our Maroon Focus.
