Cruise-In Possibilities

Bud Wor­ley recent­ly con­tact­ed us to let any clubs who lost their venue, due to the clos­ing of the Triple XXX Dri­ve-In, that the Mus­tard Seed Restau­rant — 5608 119th Ave SE, New Port Hills, Belle­vue, WA already hosts a Wednes­day night cruise-in from 3pm-7pm.

Early Bird Swap Meet Returns To Puyallup 

Back in Feb­ru­ary 2023, at the close of the Ear­ly Bird Swap Meet, the Taco­ma Mod­el T Club announced that they were no longer going to spon­sor the show BUT since then a new spon­sor has since come for­ward so the 2024 event will go on this com­ing Feb­ru­ary in Puyallup as before.This year’s Ear­ly Bird Swap Meet is being held Feb­ru­ary 17 & 18 at the Wash­ing­ton State Fair­grounds, 110 — 9th Ave SW, Puyallup, WA 98371. Adm is $10, booth space starts at $50.

The new owner/sponsor of the Ear­ly Bird Swap Meet is Sil­ver­Dol­larPub out of Spanaway, WA. The new own­ers are plan­ning on mak­ing the event big­ger & bet­ter than ever. Ven­dor Space is still avail­able. Call them at (253) 318‑6385 or email to: admin at SilverDollarPub.com if you have any ques­tions about the event.  As per usu­al, I will be in the main hall in our usu­al spot against the wall near the refresh­ment stalls. Grab some fair scones from the food ven­dors and stop to chat by our booth and pick up a few Yel­low Books. I would­n’t say no to a cou­ple of scones …

 

NOTE: Listing Error for Portland Roadster Show

We goofed!  Our List­ing on page 18 of the 2024 Yel­low Book for the 68th Annu­al Port­land Road­ster Show on March 15–17 has some gar­bled info in it. The cor­rect address for the event is: Port­land Expo Cen­ter, 2060 N Marine Dri­ve, Port­land, OR 97217 and a work­ing phone num­ber for the Multi­n­om­ah Hot
Rod Coun­cil is 503.232.4567. Email to dc33ford at yahoo.com. How our phone num­ber and Kami­ah loca­tion got into this list­ing is a bewil­der­ing event that our data based should not have allowed. We apol­o­gize for the error and thank eagle-eyed Roger Billings for spot­ting the error and noti­fy­ing us.

Don’t Miss These Fun Events!

 

The Mis­te­qua Casi­no Car Show, this August 3
in Chewe­lah, WA (about an hour North of Spokane)
should be quite an event. Not only is the casino/hotel
very nice & offer­ing great food, but the adja­cent auto
muse­um promis­es to add an extra lev­el of enjoy­ment
to this mid-sum­mer car show. Don’t miss it!

 

 

Over on the Olympic Penin­su­la, in Port Ange­les, WA 
the local Kiwa­nis Club is spon­sor­ing their Third Annu­al
Car Show & Chili Cookoff this August 31 at the Clal­lam Coun­ty Fair­grounds. The Car Show & Chili Cookoff event has been a real fun time for all over the past cou­ple of years and pro­ceeds ben­e­fit Kiwa­nis Club Char­i­ty for Kids. For details, con­tact Lynn Spradling 360.461.9308. Cool cars and hot chili. What more could you ask for!

 

The 40th Annu­al Rod Run to the ‘End of the World’ is being held on Sept 7–8 in Ocean Park, WA. The Beach Barons Car Club puts on the annu­al event, and they work hard to make one of the events of its type in the North­west. If you’ve nev­er attend­ed, make it a must do event for 2024. You won’t regret it!
