2016 Florida "Barner's Bash"

[VeryTangled]

Hi Everyone, Thank you JM! Can't wait for more reports. Have fun, oh, I guess that was un-necessary!

Thanks for taking me along with your pictures John. It looks like you guys had a fun day. Enjoy the warmth and the BBQ today.

Jeff & Chuck, wish you could have made this years gathering. We have a great group of folks here this year with some beautiful old Fords! Have had a super time so far, even though I don't have my '35 fordor here with me this time. I am getting to ride "*******" in some very cool old Fords and Lincolns. I will be posting many more pictures here when I can make that happen.
Cheers!

A few more pictures. I still have many more to post .......

Just left the "Bash". A great bunch of guys, and the patient wives who came along, and a terrific time. Thanks to the local hosts, who could not have been more hospitable. The biggest thanks to Vic for keeping the thing going and to Bill Wzorek for getting the thing going ten years ago.

I got to ride in Vic's 39 convertible sedan, his 39 Zephyr, Keith's 48 convert, Pete's beautiful 40 convertible and to take Jerry's 31 Slant Window for a drive to check out his Flathead Ted's floaters. What can be better than spending a weekend with a bunch of flathead fanatics? Some might just say fanatics, but a more fun group you'd be hard pressed to find! I hope I can make it next year!

I took a bunch of pics. I will try not to duplicate JM's.

Thanks for attending the event, it was another blast of a "Barner's Bash". I enjoyed having you ride shotgun in my '39's. Glad you had a good time and looking forward to seeing you again next year. Vic

Sounds like everyone had a great time - thanks forcthe coverage guys, and thanks to Bill Wzorek for starting the event, and Vic for "keeping on keeping on"..... well done one and all!

Hi Tom, sorry you couldn't make it. Hope to see you soon. Vic

I was having so much fun at the Florida “Barner’s Bash” that I really didn’t take a lot of photos. I’ll post a few that I did take. I know there were a lot of people taking photos so hopefully they will post some here as well. Here's a shot of my '39 Lincoln Zephyr Convertible Club Coupe in front of a beautiful '42 Lincoln Zephyr Coupe.

Vic it looks great - man you made a lot of progress on the big-Z since December. Beautiful!

 

[Vic Piano]

Thanks Andy, photographs are very kind to the LZ, me, not so much... I drove her on Saturday, the first time she has been out of the garage in a month or so... Still working on getting the dash prepped and ready for paint... Problem is, every time I get behind the wheel of the Zephyr, I just want to keep driving her, not working on her...

That Zeph is a very cool car (Vic's). I like the 42, as well, but nothing like top down motoring. Maybe a Zeph for me when my ship comes in.

Vic, I will be posting many more pictures when I get time

Had a great time at the '16 Bash. A big thank you goes to you, Keith and both of your wives. Also to Pat and Candy for arranging that great tour of Tom's collection, and last but certainly not least to Bill and LeeAnn Wzorek for all they have done to make these Barner's gathering's so much fun and so special. All of you folks have become such good friends.... thanks to me having joined the Fordbarn way back ~ 2002, beginning during Shelly's time of ownership.

 

[Vic Piano]

Milford and John, I really enjoyed having you both ride with me in the LZ (we didn't have any mishaps) and I want to thank everyone that took part in the fun.

Whew, glad that's over. I hope everyone had a good time.

Time to start the Moonshine Festival stuff now Vic. ROFLMSAO

Lawson, we saved a seat for you at the picnic and a parking spot for Apatchy, but Vic said you might be a no show, again, as in the past. What's up with that?? . Are you possibly concerned that Apatchy might not make it all that way down from Georgia? I have a picture of you and Shelly standing together at some previous event. I'll have to try to dig that one up from the ancient archives of my computer picture files and post it here .

 

[Vic Piano]

John, that photo must have been taken at the Moonshine Festival eight or nine years ago... Lawson just likes to give me a hard time... must be his way of showing how much he loves me... LOL or, as Lawson would say "ROFLMSAO".

No fears about Apatchy not making it. Is me what keeps us away. I really should not be driving at all. I cannot control the foot pedals well at all, and that is dangerous for me and others. I caused a 4 car pile up last week, totaling my car. No one hurt, thankfully.
