OKC SW Street Rods National
« on: April 04, 2010 - 08:28:02 PM »
Hi All-
Open invitation;
Next weekend, 9-11 April, Okalahoma City will host the Southwest Street Rods National.
The actual show will be at the Fair Grounds.
That being said, every year the Street Rods, along with local muscle cars, cruise the Meridian strip.

Next Friday, 9 April, my friends and I will be at Louie's Grill and Bar, located at I-40 and Meridian
They have a great patio out front, and we'll be sitting all of ten feet from the cars cruising Meridian.
Louie's is a family friendly restaurant, so all are welcome.
Plenty of parking and plenty of good seating to watch the cars.

OKC police block the I-40 exit to Meridian, so get there early.
Or, exit McArthur and take Reno back.

Historically speaking, Meridian is jam packed with cruising cars.
And, Louie's parking lot becomes a haven for show and street cars to admire.
Fun time for all.

Current weather forecast shows 75 for Friday and 77 on Saturday

I'll be there with the Rumble Bee.
If my neighbor can get the Cuda started, she'll be there as well.

Stop by and enjoy an evening of cruising or watching.
If you do, say hi to me: I'm the tall guy drinking a Corona.

See ya next week,
Ron

Ron,
Looks like the weather will be perfect for the Street Rod Nats.  I am glad they have opened the show to all cars and trucks 30 years and older.  I wish we could be there but my husband is having an epidural injection tomorrow and I am not sure how he will feel.  We live less than 100 miles away and we have been before.  It is a blast.  Hope everyone in the area can make it out.  Blofish and Pink Ice are ready to get out of the shop.  We have added another project to our fleet.  We have a 1972 1/2 ton Dodge Truck that we are restoring this summer.  My husband has had it since new.  Maybe next year we can drive it to the Street Rod Nats.

Hi All-
Fun time last Friday at the Car Cruise.
Got there early for good seats. But, the wife fell ill, so we went home too early for the show cars to arrive.
Such is life

That's my B'Cuda and my friend is getting his 1941 Dodge WD truck
