Marble Falls show-n-shine.

Was just wondering if any of the locals were coming to town.
Main street is short but it always has a good turnout of cars.
Looking forward to meeting any member that may show up.
I will make sure to get some pics for you guys. David, (Lonestar)
I hope will bring his W-30. Steve, bring that drop top Olds...

I plan on being there. May need to clean it up a little. It is not a show car, but it is mine. I'm about to the point where I will need to throw buckets of $ at it. What time does this start?

Here's the Marble Falls flyer for those interested. There's also a show n shine in Liberty Hill on Saturday that Texas442 (Ali) plans to attend. MF is closer for me but with the weather forecast to be in the upper 60's a longer cruise might be nice. Adam & Steve, I'll be in touch to let you know which way I'm headed.

Beautiful day, clear skies with temps in the 60's, in the Texas Hill Country to get out and exercise your Olds today! Met tru-blue442 (Adam) and newcomer droptopolds (Steve) at the Marble Falls Show N Shine and afterwards took a short ride to grab some lunch with the brides. Pics aren't very good but maybe they're better than none

Looks like you had a nice day for the show...

Hey, I finally get to see the main drag of Marble Falls

Was there a good turnout?

Hi Ted. Not as many turned out as I have seen in the past.
There was probably 80 cars just guessing. A lot of folks there though.
I got a pic of my guy at Fastenal with his 1912 Brush one cylinder brass car.
It was really a nice one. The one I really liked was the 58 Chevy with a 3 deuce 348.

With 80 cars, I would call that a decent turnout for a small town show.

Eric, it was a real nice turnout. The weather was great too.
About 3 years ago, there was two more blocks of cars though.
A line of 70-72 Buick GS's and a few GSX's, that didn't show this time.
The Oldsmobiles beat the Buicks this year! There was one 67 Wildcat vert.

It was a pleasure to meet Adam (tru-blue 442) and David (Lonestar) and get out on this nice day in Hill Country. The show was very enjoyable, meeting with everyone was great fun. Would love to do it again.

The Brush was really sweet. Never seen one before. The old crank start reminded me of the first tractor I used (John Deere M). Lots of nice iron and good Olds representation.
