I called the Holiday Inn tonight and they got the list from the promoters for reservations today. They tell me they should have everyone entered in the computer by the end of the week. Anyone bringing any unrestored 30's era gas pumps to the show?

We are bringing a boat load of pumps. Something like 30 as that is about all we can haul. Some will have to stay home. A couple 30's era in the batch I think.

Last year Frankpl & I did approx. 2100m going w/ a trailer, I let him drive about 100m.
In 1999 I went from here to Albq., NM, to La Junta, Co. to Burlington, Co to Bismarck, ND, [to pickup a friend & his pumps]. Back South to just East of Omaha, Ne. before heading to IG. Total 2766m & 42 1/2h. [according to the map].
Usually do 1800-2000 going.
