Thanks for the pics Stuart.

And, the superbirds still get no respect. Your car is a lot nicer looking than the coronet.
I've been to a lot of car shows where halfway decent b or e bodies will take the show even though there's an absolutely perfect Superbird in attendance. Why is that? Convertibles tend to get passed over as well for some reason.

Too bad they didn't get the 150 cars that they had expected. The constant threat of rain didn't help. It has rained so much around this part of the U.S. that we've only attended one show since they started back in March.

I used to think of Branson as a hick town with a bunch of hayseed actors in corny country shows. Not any more. I started going up about six years ago and now we plan our vacation around the August cruise every year. The only probelm is that we had to give up the Nats since it's the same weekend.


sorry you missed the bandits brother

well they all went on a cruise of branson with the bandit and  then watched christine

  Ian and I packed up for the trip back to KC and we just had one more stop to make for Dinner ,  Food will always play a big part in my road trip threads

this old guy accosted us in the parking lot as we were leaving ,  He had to tell us about his buddy superbird that is a 383 hemi and how he really wanted to order a convertible but couldnt afford that option .
We just nodded and smiles and left quickly

alternator swap monday night , after math of branson trip .   Much prefer this trouble them last years .

  ultima alternator has a life time warranty

    it was   $1.00 to up great to a 78 amp , so I did it with the modern touch screem radio I figured it needed it . This one has a better design I dont think the  rear main wiring stud will pull out of this one .

Have fun. We're supposed to get more rain on Saturday. I guess there won't be a cruise-in for us Saturday night. Darn rain.

I was hoping to get my 1969 Superbird with the 383 hemi out this weekend.  ;D

Gotta love that place!  Last time I was there I was with a bunch of college buddies, we had taken a weekend trip to Springfield and were headed back to Rolla.  We convinced the roll thrower to smoke one of our buddies in the head with a roll when he wasn't paying attention  :lol:
