Just a reminder May 14 15 16 in Lebanon TN. Yes the show has been moved but I hope attendance does not suffer from the move. There arent a lot of people stepping up to the plate to put on great truck shows, so we all need to show our support!

Plan to be there

 

Too far for me to go

 

Too far?

"She who must be obeyed" and I attended the 2008 F100 SuperNationals.

We flew from LAX to Charlotte, rented a car, then drove to Knoxville, where the 3 day show and swap meet was held that year.

 

Won't be able to make it this year but I am anxious to see how the new location works out. I still plan to eventually make my "maiden voyage" to the Supernationals. Tried in 2013 but fried the AOD in Athens, Tennessee (500 miles from home!). Please post lots of pictures and your observations for those of us who wish we were there. Thanks, Steve

 

well, I changed my mind... been itchin for a road trip and I made reservations today... comin in friday afternoon and will have Saturday only. Might see what's cookin and pickup some trinkets... Saturday should give a good indication of the crowd after the move....

I'll be the old balk guy in the Supernats shirt.... should make me easy to find (yea right !)

later

Prior to attending the 2008 event in Knoxville, I typed a post in a related thread on FTE that I would be going. Several members then typed posts asking how they could contact me, one asked for my cell phone number. I told him I had no cell phone (and still don't), but said to look for an tall oversized tub wearing a Hawaiian shirt.

Walking the swap meet around noon the first day, I bought a used 1965/66 F100/250 Custom Cab/Ranger plastic chrome instrument cluster bezel that contained the optional oil and amp gauges.

Several minutes later, a guy comes up to me, says are you NumberDummy? I don't recall his name, but he was the Mississippi FTE chapter leader. Then when he spotted the cluster I'm holding...says where did you find it, I've been looking for one for years!

I pointed to the seller, said he has another, but without the optional gauges. After BS'ing for a few minutes, I sold the cluster to him for what I paid for it, 25 bucks.

 

dang Ken, from your house, it's like going out for lunch... come on up

 

so ??? who's going beside me and Don ???

 

I am, I will be selling parts and having a few frosties for sure. I have to deliver a frame to BJmayberry and I sold a 56 coe body and will be delivering it as well, so look for me

 

Kevin, Will stop by and say Hi, to you and Tony. John, I think I may have met you once at a previous Supernational meet and greet,
possibly 2010 when it first moved back to Pigeon Forge. Truck will be parked somewhere in there, and I will be wearing a Supernational
shirt too.

 

looking at the weather this am for Lebanon... WU has 50% chance of rain Friday and 75% on Saturday... if that doesn't change by Wednesday, I'm cancelling reservations.... hate it for Charlie but I don't want to spend the money on trip and room to look at an empty parking lot and a motel window... hope it changes.
