My son Zac and I plan to go over to see Floyd's Museum Wed am. I think Chuck Nixon wants to ride along. Does anyone else have any interest at all in seeing the museum. My number one reason for going is to see the Z-11 and the clone of the Holley Farms 63 NASCAR with the 427 Mystery engine. Of course, he has many other great and unique cars in the museum.

Tom, the three of us from NJ will be stopping in at Floyds on Wed. AM as well. That is our overnite stop on the way down...A little breakfast followed by muscle cars..what a way to start the day.

Tom, when are you leaving Mustang? I'm thinking about leaving Tyler early Tuesday morning and get to Goodletsville Tuesday night. I just have to find a hotel for Tuesday.

Bob,
Zac and I will most likely leave sometime Mon (Mem day) and drive until we get tired and pull over in a rest stop (I'll have the 44mag. and the brick), then continue Tue to N'ville.

Tom, right now doesn't look good for me to get to Goodlettsville for the Museum trip since I may not arrive until Wed afternoon. If that changes BobFMTyler will know as we were going to travel together if I could leave early Tues with him.

thanks
Chuck

Rachael,
It's in Sevierville, TN, about 3hr east.
I'll be pulling out Wed am, sometime after daylight-thirty. The more the merrier. If you like performance/muscle cars, Floyd has some great ones!
We'll probably be back sometime about late afternoon-thirty. In time to fire up the little grill for burgers-dogs-beer (my treat each yr for CB).
Will that work for you? (we're at the Best Western)

Racheal,
Why don't you just stop by Floyd's on the way to CB04? It's in Sevierville, TN. Then we can all go on to CB from there. If not, the beer will be iced and when we get back, I'll be burning burgers and dogs. My treat.
