Tracer, why not bring the big truck and camp in it at the fairgrounds? If it rains you might want a place to hide out in that's not a tent. Put out a tarp roof next to it? Also you can putt around with it to both sides of the event whenever you want, and take it on the MV Poker Run and the run...

Mik, fires authorized in raised pits only at the Hagerty Tent Sector at the fairgrounds. Not on the ground. You have to bring it and wood. At the 49er RV Village same thing but they want to sell you their wood. Most tent sites have no shade. No tables unless event daddy rabbit Dave Porter finds...

These are called NEKAF jeeps, for the original builder in Rotterdam, "Nederlandse Kaiser-Frazer." US-built parts assembled by the Dutch with required highway safety equipment added. I borrowed a frontline ambulance version from a friend and took it to two of our meets in California. It had a...

Mike, great you are saving this equipment! Now I know who buys this kind of hardcore project. I drive around the north and central state a lot and sometimes see MVs like this. I probably should post photos and where they are. I don't 'know Tracer.... in a Ferrari in top gear Hwy 16 from Sac...

Today I looked at the reservation page at www.towerparkresort.com and noted the following PACKAGE DEALS that lower the standard pricing for new reservations: 4 nights for the price of 3 during certain times of the year, like during our event. That is a 25% discount - same as our group rate! If...

Well put Kurt. Back to Tower Park in April 2019! Their renovations should be completed by this Summer just in time for us to check them out at the September Camp Delta meet. We'll talk about Petaluma 2018 in other posts. The Dodge display plus the Motorcycles, Scooters, Bicycles display were...

I hear the 100 day-user visitors per day rule by KOA might be a little fuzzy. We don't how many visitors we will have but if KOA draws the line, a MV driver should get in (and we have a space for the MV inside), and probably having a MVCC member name badge on could help.

M37 and other military Dodge owners within range of Petaluma, CA this week are invited to participate in the Dodge Boys Meet, a special showcase at Camp Petaluma this Friday 2 - 5 pm. Any era or condition. Camp Petaluma is the largest annual historic military vehicle gathering and swap meet in...

Weather forecast is great! Campers stashing trailers or extra cars, pickups in the KOA trailer storage yard can block tenants but don't block cars, which will be our folks, or their car hauler trailers. Conserve space in there.

Badass MV is right! We are lucky to have two in the SF Bay Area. One drove all the way from Napa marina to the Tower Park meet east of Rio Vista a couple times and gave rides.
