Well, well, well, here we are again, less than 3 months to go until Fred's annual extravaganza. It's been 14 years that we've been promoting (or a reasonable facsimile) the best Gas Bash in the west. Friday, Saturday, Sept. 19-20, 2014. Santa Rosa, CA. Signs galore, pumps, globes, cans, country store, soda, beer (lots), etc. Call Fred if you need a flyer or info. (707)-291-1666

I am so excited for this!

Ken and I will be there
Ray

I always look forward to Fred's, the Bash is Great and the People are Better! Jim

That's it, suck up to Fred..........

We will be there in the Lodi corner with my son Jason and family.
Mention this add for a free beer. Ted

Although in Ca. never been this gathering, could those who know or have been there please list some choices for lodging ? closest is preferable but also want to be where the action is in case there's any selling/trading going on after hours etc. Thanks !!

No, that's pretty much an annual to-do..........

If you're planning on going to the show book your room soon ! The "Wings Over Wine Country" air show is taking place that same weekend. Santa Rosa will be a busy little town on those dates. By the way.....it's a great air show !

Anyone interested in an Echlin Cabinet?

Mike

Thanks for the post Mike!! Anyone else don't be afraid to jump in,water is not Ice Cold.

Looks like Tbirdgas is bringing quite a load with him. Can hardly wait.............

But ...

Is he bringing the "Washington Chief"?

If so, he would need a police escort for the BEAUTY!

Look forward to seeing you all!

Hen

For the Chevie Fans, Fantasy 15" lens, told its a decal fired on

I will be there.

Good.....

Tbird, you bringing the whole house?????

Was the earthquake felt here?? damage??

No worries, Paul!

Fred's Bash is outside BIG OPEN area, so no bricks will fall on our head should there be one!

Man, you sure know how to tease with your "good stuff" ...

Hen

No damage at Fred's. Refrigerator works fine & we have back up coolers.....

Not Fred's, it's lodging and a certain warehouse I go to.

Hope to See a Big Turn Out @

You selling the Carnation boy and Stokes ice cream sign?
Ted

Stokes ice cream sign is a shameful plug for the swap meet. I do have 2 arden boy signs (a 2 footer and 3 footer)

I guess that is a no on the Stokes sign

Arden sign should stay in the Pacific Northwest..........;)

That would be correct

LOL Carnation boy to me I guess. Bring em sell em PNW guys have too much stuff. Ted

Wait a minute......................

I'm going to bring this very early Monarch Motor Oil clock to Freds if anyone is interested at $1800. It is old and original. My wife can no longer read the numbers so I'm going to try a spinner clock with much brighter display.
Let me know at hotcidr@cox.net
Thanks
Ray

Just over two weeks; lots of "chatter"..........

I was at Tbirdgas' house Sat. night; he is bringing the mother lode......................................

Anyone bringing Golden West Coffee signs??

or tin's????

Got a bunch of Golden west coffee tins but Pam won't sell them.Ted

Assert yourself and Put Your Foot Down and Bring Them

Who shows up with and sells the moving blankets?

Dick and Diane Kinsey

At least we know who's in charge........ (thank goodness!!!)

Mr. Stover is bringing this nice Copper Collar Gill Body globe

Figured I'd throw my 2 cents in, cant wait.. camera battery died so cant post pics, youll just have to wait and see what I'm bringing, be there thursday late afternoon...Frank

Frank's 2 cents are worth $27.50.........

If this is an auction I'll up the bid to $28.00

Wow I feel like I may owe you guys some change

Not at all.................. One week away.............

10 day weather for bash. Ted
http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/USCA1027

Looking mighty fine.......I'll be there tomorrow & give a first beer/hand report................................:)

Don't forget to save Bill and I a spot down in the corner. Hope my credit is good for the fee, forgot to give it to you last week,

Anyone bring a Ben Hur can like this, want a 9++ can

Bringing these two signs, any interest in advance

Quit teasing us Ray..........

Anyone have their phone number? If so Private message me.

Thanks,
Mike A.

50/50 chance that I may bring this, depends on room and if I can load it in the truck by myself(not as young as I use to be)

I will have it picked up and shipped what's the price Paul?

US 66 Detour sign is spoken for...thank you
Ray

WOW only sign I wanted. Ted

Ready to buy some 6 foot signs! I'll be there. Only a few days to go.

Just got info if coming from the south on 101 the Fulton Rd. exit is undergoing construction. Proceed to next exit Airport turn right at signal then you will run back into Fulton. I don't know if this will effect cars but if you are towing for sure use the Airport exit.

Weather report says maybe some precip Thursday A.M. so the roads might be slick, hasn't rained for a long time, drive safe you guys.
Friday mid 80s mostly sunny.
Don't forget your cameras so you have some home movies to watch later.

Tom, I need two more tables, total of 4, if you can do that. Found a bunch more signs
thanks
Ray

Ray, you can have mine. I usually bring my own. I am bringing a few signs as well.

Big Thanks to Tom and Fred, Great Show this Year!!

You're welcome. Already gearing up for next year.
