Who is planning to attend this year?

The '87 is not ready yet, I didn't give it much love this year. I will be changing the oil and going over it to be sure it's ready but nothing special this year.

I will be staying in Gulfport, close to Island View Casino.

I’ll be down sometime the weekend of the 9-11th, in Ocean Springs, visiting a 94 yo uncle who still gets around better than I do!

Plan to look around some. Had planned to bring the 5.3 swapped S10, but it’s not finished due to other set backs.

Ever been to the swap meet? Looking for some IH Scout 2 parts and wondering if it is worth it.

I wish I could say I’d been to the swap meet but the one time I tried to go it took 2 hours to drive from Ocean Springs to the Coliseum and it was closing when we got there. Plan accordingly.

Well the maintenance is done on The '87. Engine oil and filter are changed, front end is greased. Truck is ready. But of course it will be raining the first few days and I will be driving it down in the rain. Fortunately The '87 is a fully functional truck that can be a daily driver.

Pics to follow soon...

Yeah, tons of rain forecast through next Wednesday. Fingers crossed for clear weather Thursday for TnT, my Blazer only has a bikini top so heavy rain would be a deal breaker.
