Johnny,
I hope to have my car back on the road this summer. Maybe, just maybe it will be ready or close enough to be in a picture with your Bird! I am in SW OP. I've met Steve and John and some dude in Liberty who has a 69' project I bought a hood from. I say we get together for a beer!

Doesn't Missouri have a traveling regional car show between. KC, St.Louis and Joplin. Two year in a row at one place then it moves. Thinking it might be KCs turn?

John,
Jim's bird? Wow...I'll keep I look out in K.C. And I have some friends who will also. Do you think they'll try to strip and part it out...that's a hard car not to notice?

Greg,
Let us know about Branson. We're trying to get some folks together in K.C.
Posted By: Johnny Mac Re: Kansas City - 02/28/08 06:08 PM

Hi Guys,

Hoopity here. No. of the river, 169&291 between KCI and Liberty. We have a big show at KCI in June this year. I am one of the organizers and we had 700 cars at our last one.

I am looking for a 400 hood if neone has an extra. I have a nice flat hood. I don't want to cut it for the tach as the tach will not go with the hood.
Posted By: Johnny Mac Re: Kansas City - 04/23/10 05:08 PM
Who is running? I should be soon. Looks like there are 4 of us locals.. Hoopity, Ruffnut, KCPaul + Me, then we have Greg in Springfield.

I will PM my contact info.. maybe put together a quickie in May before the big show in June?

Hey guys. SWMO member here. Please keep me informed of any gatherings. I currently have 2 '69 birds. One was dropped off for media blasting just last week and the other is a project to be handled in the future.

Posted By: daisy Re: Kansas City - 11/21/11 07:33 AM
Not sure how this site works but would like to see the birds in the KC area. I have two 68 conv. 400 and 67 conv. 350. working on both of them to get ready for 2012 summer top down weather. Glenn e-mail glennett@yahoo.com
