Well A little dedication to the Memory or butch049 the Carshow we missed
Well Back in 2015 butch49 wanted me to meet up at a Carshow in Nebraska or Kansas.
I always worked as a Roads inspector out of State and just never made it back home for any shows. Then when I did it was raining hard all the way to the one I was going to attend in he suggested I try again next year. So I never went and come to find out he passed away that next year. He always talked about his job at O'Rieleys Auto parts and i finally called the one in Concordia, Ks and they told me he had passed on. So this weekend I went to one of the Carshows he attended in Nebraska at Western, NE about 287 population. I did manage to get a Trophy for my trip. It says runner up I was in the same class as the Blue Mustang I never get much credit for the 197K that is on my car verses the Mustang that is probably 10 years newer than mine. on a side note: ( when I first joined the Forum there was some discussion about why I posted a photo of Dale Earnhardt on my signature. He made the comment I have met Driver number 3 and he looks exactly like Dale E. Fun stuff. Anyway dedicate the Trophy to butch49 an his Monte he called the heartbeat. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...0f012d4bbf.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...e4a0d5c9e6.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...76276aa71d.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...27156689b9.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...09b8705e55.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...391701b26e.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...13c438a30d.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...914b35f8a0.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...8c764cf0cc.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...54fe93bdcb.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...bd3fd46060.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...0a805f55c0.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...d0e4d716eb.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...ee4cf2e632.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...f3e29170cf.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...d5273b1397.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...9915b0eb3f.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...806c985b70.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...c2434480f1.jpg |
That is pretty cool that you made it to this show, even though Butch is no longer with us. He is one of a few members sadly lost :(

I am thinking that the first time he saw me was in a small town on the NE/KS border that was doing there 150th celebration and they asked me to be there for that to do my Dale photo opp thing. We raised 500.00 in a short time for the Crisis Pregnancy Center in this area. All free will donation stuff. :flag: The Governor showed up too and I knew him from several precious events, he was an Eagle Scout and so was my son. :flag: I was surprised he remembered me from the Boy Scout thing. :chevy:At that time Butch has an El Camino and I had told him how nice It looked. :chevy: |
