Napavine 3 I tried to not duplicate pictures but you will see some variations of the same vehicle. It isn't too often that you see an expansible van going down the street with its sides out. This will be the last batch of pictures from me for this event. Check it out next year.

Napavine 3 3rd batch.

Napavine 2 Here is the second batch.

Napavine Parade display 2013 First off, if you haven't been to this event before and you wondered if you should, get there. Aaron and Amber are the best hosts that one could imagine for an event such as this. Not many of us have a place that we could host 40 or 50 MV's let alone make sure that...

Next years is Indiana and it sounds like they have some neat things planned for that.

Time to bump this. Convention is 25 - 27 at the Portland Expo Center. We moved in 9 vehicles today, including one M18 Tank Destroyer and an M3 Stuart. There are over 175 vehicles registered for this event. Plus over a couple hundred sales tables. See you there.

If you guys can give me a buzz when you are ready to pull out of exit 99 southbound, in case everyone is there and you go a few minutes early, 360 870 0706. James we expect anyone that wants to do the parade to do it and we will have a space for everyone that wants to pull in and show for a...

2nd batch Second batch.

Move in Night Here are a few pics of some of the preliminary attenders to this event. Missed a couple of them but you get the idea. Took the M54 out to Aaron's tonight and on the way on I-5, right where it turns from 2 to 3 lanes, had someone decide to pass me on the right. I had my signal on...

Mike, do a rolling slow down and it would be nice depending on lineup if something big was bringing up the rear. I really hate being on the freeway at 40 - 45 with a WW2 jeep. But for some reason, people give plenty of room to the 5T. Whatever happens, we will make it work.

Add Exit 81, southbound on ramp, at 0645, two WW2 jeeps. You guys should be there about 0650 or so. See you Saturday morn. P

There is always the old volunteer method, you, you, and you, with me! We might have an extra WW2 jeep or two to kick in the mix. Showing the variety of vehicles is a great idea.

That sounds like a game plan. I will pass it on to the 1st Sgt. He will be coming across on 93rd ave. which is the overpass, so he will turn left and wait. There isn't much room, but there is some, on the on ramp, as I have waited there before. Most likely I will catch you guys at Exit 81...

Mike, could 1st Sgt. Gifford tag along with you guys, meeting at Exit 99 at 0615? His only limitation is that he will be driving his 43 CCKW and it only does about 45. He doesn't want to slow you guys down, but wouldn't mind some back up in case something happens. He is not on this site and I...

I would say if we have volunteers that wish to do the parade. I am thinking of doing the display only as I will be setting other display items out. At the end of the parade, everyone that wants can come set up in the display area as well. This is a good point Mike. Perhaps we set the display...

Have to go with NDT's advice. One picture sure looks like corrosion in the head between the cylinders. Definitely have it checked out and milled if needed. I really like JB weld and it would probably work, but so would a nice flat mating surface.

Is anyone bringing a display with or other than their MV's for Saturday morning. In discussion with Aaron last weekend, we were thinking 10 or so vehicles for the parade and the rest, that would like, on display in the grassy field in front of the grocery store in Napavine. We will figure out...

Watch the low wires this time of year. They are supposed to be at least 14 ft. above traveled way, but with the heat. Who knows? Looks great. See you next weekend. P

Looks great Mike. What is your overall height now?

But it's restorable and running when parked. :D Thank you for sharing the pic. I didn't think to take pics of any of the ones that I saw.
