Paul, here are a few more photos from the Moonshine Festival. I've exceeded my photo limit on Photobucket:( so I'll have to delete some old photos before I can post more. Vic

Looks like 39 and 40's were THE car to have at the moonshine fest. After running the heck out of my 39 I know it will make it down there next year. Motel rooms hard to find? Vic, we are going to try another ford barn tour for 2012 also, ideas are welcome.

Chuck, we'll most likely do another Florida "Barner's Bash" sometime in February or March of 2012. JM got a hotel room just up the street from Dawsonville (surprised me as I thought they would be booked). There were more cars and people at this Festival than I've seen in the past five years that we have been attending. I think ours was the only Convertible Sedan ('35 - '39) in the show. Hope to see you in Florida. Vic

By pure chance I was visiting an old buddy that lives in rural Dawsonville { 1,137 miles from my doorstep } & knew nothing about it until I saw the endless stream of neat stuff going down Georgia 400 . When I saw a nice 34 drive by it was time for a quick snoop but his Galpal had made plans :eek: so we got chased otta there quick . Yeah I know but I was a captive audience . Neat deal from what I was able to see :D . David J

My wife and I were fortunate to have our son go with us and he took these pictures. He likes all the cars and didn't concentrate on flatheads, so look at the pics that interest you.

JM, Had a great time at the festival with you, Vic, Steve, Mike and Cliff, and Tony. Loved the cruise in your 35 through all those hills and curves.
Steve and I could not believe how tight that vehicle is and how well it runs.
How about all those Southern Fords down there? I have never seen so many in one town anywhere/
Vic's mother is a real sweethart and a wonderful host. Good thing we left before we all gained another 20 lbs from her hospitality. Sure hope I can make it again next year.
Hope you had a safe trip home.
Hal
