My name is Nate Rogers. I grew up in small town, WA, and now I go to school at the United States Merchant Marine Academy in NY. My 72 Chevelle is now sitting at home under the hands of my dad (yikes). He is keeping it all shined up, but the gas was allowed to go bad. I'm only home a few times a year now, but refuse to even think about selling the American history. It's good to find a site like this where so many people with the same interests can connect. It's my only way! I look forward to reading your posts and posting a few once in awhile myself.

What Oregon show did you go to? I would recommend the Long Beach Rod Run in Long Beach, WA. It's a really good annual show with cars from all over.

This is a collection I ran across of the turnout at "Rod Run to the End of the World" 2009. One of the best parts of the weekend is the cruise into town, but there are some real genius drivers out there showing off as always. Last time I was down there a 90s corvette did a burn-out, lost control, and nailed another showcar blocking traffic for the cruise.

I should be able to make that show! I remember hearing about it from a few people and I ended up with a flyer somehow. I'm looking forward to the 16th. Thanks for the link!

Ray- Did you ever see the yellow Chevelle on craigslist in Tigard? It was a 71 or 72. I was just curious if that thing ever sold. It was on there for a loooong time.

Nate,
I did see it, but not sure if it sold. What small town in Washington are you from?
