Just got back from Medford & the Jalopy ride. I put 10.2 miles on the Diablo on the ride, it wasn't that great, the Diablo wasn't running so swell :x . Upon returning to the event from the ride was the raffles & trophies. To my suprise I won FIRST place with my Diablo in the unrestored class, while Jeremiah B. from Spencer won FIRST place in the restored class. :D :D
They also had a vintage fashion show where my wife, who was all geared up in John Deere clothing won FIRST prize which was $100 cash :D
The other couple we were with also took home 2 trophies, a second place in the cutter class & a second place in the unrestored class which his Johnson was in.

We had a awesome time! All the trophies was just the iceing on the cake :D

Take care all & until next time, BOTTOMS UP

I've seen Mrs. Bottoms Up and she would win trophy's no matter what she was wearing.

Sounds like a great time even if the weather did not cooperate.
Too many Diablos and parts to count.

I had a great time too. Didn't go on the ride though, the weld broke on my hinge so the hood was flopping around, I have to do a little work on it for next weekend! Anyone interested in coming to Spencer? It is our 13th Annual show and ride, the ride is about 10 miles long, another great time. No fashion show though.
