Henderson, NC 2007

On Thursday October 18, Jim & Linda in their '57 wagon, Ed & Marsha trailering their modified '57 convertible, Butch & Sissy in their '55 pickup and friend Bob Wagner trailering his hemi 'Cuda took off for Henderson, NC for the East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame Reunion. We played trivia going down the road using our cb's and that really made the time pass! Once there, we met up with Paul, Lynda and Donnie Schneider, Earl Chesley and friends, Bud & Linda Hahn and Bill and Betty Wilcom. This year, Bill Wilcom was inducted into the East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame. Bud Hahn was inducted in 2004.


We enjoyed a great time all weekend, with only a smattering of rain to disrupt a great display at the local car dealership on Friday. Friday evening, we enjoyed a sumptious free buffet at a welcome reception at our hotel. On Saturday, over 1,500 cars & trucks lined the streets of Henderson. We had to walk at least 1/2 mile in either direction from our parking spaces to see all the cars and nostalgia drag cars. What a great day!


At awards time, Butch & Sissy's pickup received a Best in Show Award for their class - 1955 to 1976 pickups - Congratulations!

After the big show, some of us took off for 220 Seafood Restaurant for dinner - Jim & Linda had won a $25 gift certificate as a door prize. Afterwards, we cruised around a bit, then some folks cruised out to the Raleigh Road Drive In Theater to watch Smoky and the Bandit. At the Drive In, Butch & Sissy won a trophy for Best Truck! Congratulations again!

Sunday morning, we got to sleep in, then we headed over for the very nice induction ceremony. Bill Wilcom thanked Heart of Maryland Classic Chevy Club in his acceptance speech, and we felt very honored. Afterwards, we enjoyed a wonderful buffet with fresh fruit, veggies, cheeses, prime rib and chicken, and then we headed home. Although we got home late, it was a nice drive with great weather!
