Do You own a car built by Durant? '31 619

Re: Texarkana

I'm not really sure but it looks like 4 modern and 3 antique at this point. Also, there is a Star touring and a Durant coupe here in town if they show up. They've been notified and invited.

Re: Texarkana

Ok now we are a week away. How's the registration going? If anyone is just not sure if they will attend. Don't miss out on a Durant gathering. You've never had so much fun and will not be sorry for sure. You will meet the nicest people on earth and that's a fact! Soooo if you haven't registered yet, get those registration and checks out now!

Re: Texarkana

Don.... registration is in the mail! We'll be driving in from Ohio and arriving sometime Wednesday afternoon or early evening. Thought about riding with Frank, but he drives too slow and all he wants to talk about is cars!

See Ya there... Jim G.

Re: Texarkana

Hi Jim......

I guess you are correct about my driving. But at least I didn't get lost in Chicago on out first trip to Green Bay !!

I may be slower in getting to Texarkana, I'm bringing the remains of 100 Durant products with me.

Re: Texarkana

Jim
If Frank starts with car #1 and the story behind it etc and continues on, you will not end up in Texarkana, but will be knocking on Rick's door or Bert & Sonya's in California before you know it and they won't be there.

Re: Texarkana

Today was perfect starting with a slow soaking rain with hardly any runoff. Rain, to some extent, is forecast thru next week at 20%. Around here that is regarded as pic-nic weather. At least it won't be blistering hot and muggy. I'm doing my best to preclude any errant hurricanes spoiling our activities.
Everything else is going smoothly except for Texarkana city maps. The Chamber of Commerce dropped the ball and is out of them for at least another couple of months. Well, thank heaven for Google!!!
So, drive your old car, bring it on a trailer, tote it in boxes or just bring pictures. Come on and join the fun!!

Re: Texarkana

Wow, couldn't believe AR is so far from Iowa. But I have my trailer and the car is inside already, so we're headed south next week.
Don did you get my reg.?
Don't forget your banquet dress. Jan and I really got into it after Auburn - can't wait. It's a blast!

Re: Texarkana

Hi All.....

Cathy & I have our new old outfits packed, The show at the banquet is always interesting.

If Jim G packed his zoot suit, he may even get invited to another wedding (remember Auburn)

There is still time for anyone else who has been thinking of going. It's going to be a great time for all Durantonians.

See Y'all on Wednesday in Texarkana......

Re: Texarkana

The banquet will be interesting this year. After the vittles are done there will be a very special entertainer drop by. Door prizes after the activities.

Wayne, I received your registration but need to know your wises name. I'm making pin back buttons with your names in advance.

Re: Texarkana

For those of you still on the fence about coming to Texarkana, people who attended the Astoria meet had a wonderful time. Here are a few short movies from that meet. But we'll make new memories in Texarkana and yes you can show up at the last minute.
