A group of my Stray Kat brothers and myself are planning a major road trip for next spring. From my home near Salina, KS (home of the KKOA Leadsled Spectacular) to Wichita, KS then Vegas for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend, then to Austin for the Lonestar Roundup and back home. I'll keep you posted on what the plan is, and of course I'll blog from the road on that trip. 3250 miles in a bunch of kustoms in various states of build across the midwest and southwest and back. It should be an adventure!
Here's what I saw on my last trip to Viva in 2010
And here's this year's coverage of the Lonestar Roundup.
Looks like a good time to me!
See you at a show,

A Busy Weekend Part 3: Lake Afton All Wheels Car Show
Part 3 of my busy weekend was a Sunday drive down to Lake Afton, west of Wichita, KS. People have told me about this show for years and I've never been able to make it until now. A free show for both the spectators and the show vehicles, I had my resevations, but I was proven wrong. A great turnout of every imaginable kind of vehicle and tons of great people.
Although the show officially starts at 11, there were around 100 cars there at 10 when I showed up.

















The scene at 10am











The Thunderbird club showed up in full force!








Kevin's 64 Galaxie for the 2nd day in a row, always good to see you my friend!


The Mini club showed up too!



I want!

A friend has one of these Lotus Elise's and they are a blast!



The Corvair Club showed up too


1951 Ford Victoria





Johnny's dope kustom


64 Ford Galaxie 500

Stance

Something tells me it's as fast as it is pretty

Who doesn't love a VW?

The truck crowd was in attendance







A lowered early Bronco

John & Butch lining up



This just looks like fun...until you have to shammy the roof

This looks plain fun.

Steve's bad ass 52 Chevrolet




A Wichita legend, Fundamentals member Doug's Toad

Johnny's simple and elegant 58 Chevy kustom




Cameo Cakes' Divco has a mini me now

Pure speed

Even with 4 doors, Hudsons are kool

Well that's it for my wild weekend of Kansas Car Show Fun! Hope you had a good time out there, click on any of these photos to see the full photo galleries and I'll see you at a show.
