I'll be there with one or both my sons. Always a great Father's Day weekend. This will be my 45th. Missed one in the early 1970's when Harrah had his swap meet on same weekend. Took a pickup load of parts in 1980 (first year at Pomona) and sold out in two hours...prices were probably too low!
 
Been planning the drive out for two years. But....family obligations have to be the priority. I was so looking forward to that 50th anniversary headlight sticker.

well , my ol man is driving to the show by himself . I cannot take two weeks off of work ,NO WAY -NO HOW . He is leaving on the 7th(sat) from Massachusetts and drivin out I really need him to hook up with some barners/hambers on the way out . for safety reasons and my own personal worry. He would tell me to go F myself if he knew I said that but ,,,hes 73 years young ,had two heart attacks and I don,t want anything to happen to him . ITS a Bucket list thing,Plus its the 50th. ,my step mom is pissed,hes going . she can,t take time off work either. On the lighter side ,his friggin car screams so he aint gonna slow anybody down . submarine vetran USN 58-62. Complete FORD GUY. He asked me today, to ask you guys if he could hook up with a anybody on the way out I,ll get his route .My 17 year old daughter was going to go with him ,but she will still be in school . PM me with your where-abouts if you can ...SAFETY IN NUMBERS THANKYOU MIKE PETERSON

For the benefit of some Barners who might not be familar with the L A ROADSTER SHOW, let me briefly discribe the format, and history.
The L A ROADSTER SHOW is always helt on Fathers day, June 14 & 15. The club was formed in 1957. This year they are celebrating the 50th show. The show is put on and run by the club members. The club is limited to 40 members, 20 associate members and 4 honorary members. The show is located at the LA Fairplex/ Pomona Ca.
The entire show is a combination of 4 areas, plus special attractions. First is the display of over 800 beautiful Roadsters on display. There are 4 large buildings filled with the Commericial venders, plus outside a dozen or so large simi truck venders. 3rd is the "Preferred Parking" area. They expect over 2000 coupes, sedans, and speciality vehicles. Next to the preferred parking is the Swap meet. The swap meet is special. It caters to vintage auto items, and auto related items. No reserved spaces; first come first served. We hope you will clean out your garage and bring out some "stuff" to sell.
For futher information the web site is www.laroadsters.com. Email: laroadsters@yahoo.com Hotline (310)544-4200
