Eastern National Meet - Franklin Tenn. June 1-4 2022

[mercman from oz]

Counting down the days. Not long to go now.

[Bill]

You going? Bill.

I plan on going, I had been planning on taking my '48 Ford. With the price of fuel, it's not going to happen. Was going to use my friend's diesel truck and his trailer to go up from Florida. I will be driving a modern vehicle instead. Hopefully, that won't stop a lot of attendees from taking their cars to the meet.

I'm looking forward to attending the '22 Early Ford V-8 Club's Eastern National Meet in Franklin Tennessee, and visiting the Driskell's "Third Generation Automotive" operation in McMinnville

Giving the '35 fordor sedan its final prep for the 12 hr, 768 mile drive to Tennessee on May 31st.

I'm wondering how many Fordbarn members will be attending this meet??

I plan on going but waiting for Nickel Plated Parts from Paul's shop and Battery I ordered 3 months ago. Been working on rentals the last two weeks. Need to repack the wheel Bearings on the Car Trailer. Plus get the Diesel truck ready. Diesel is $6.00 a gallon so $1000. both ways.It would be cheaper to drive the 32. Wife thinks I am crazy for going.

I'd love to go but am wondering if there is Camping available at the host site. Anyone know? I'd tow my '48 behind my motorhome and drive during the event.

Email the meet chairman, Danny Driskell, and ask him about Motorhome parking at the event, or maybe near the event.

I’m planning on going. Hopefully bring my 40 sedan but I need to get a few miles on the new engine and work out a few bugs. If not I'll drive my coupe up there.

John, bring some of those good Maryland Blue Crabs with you!!! We'll have a good steam'em up with Ken's Moonshine.

[Old Redneck]

Moonshine is getting hard to come by lately. I have a couple of quarts but that won't go far.There should be some being made in Tenn. Hope they don't raise the price.

Sounds like a grand time.
That's a solid 12 hours from Albion PA.
How many vehicles are expected?
Regards,
Chris

Chris, there are currently 127 vehicles registered. Your truck would make 128.

Is the swap meet there very big? I am wondering if its worth a trip just for that.
