With Spring Fling 2017 being the at the same time as the Portland Auto Swap Meet, I will have to miss Spring Fling.  But looks like I might then have time to go to MATS!   :)  You should go!!!!  When was the last time you went to MATS?

Years , our business is always stupid busy at that time


303 Mopar

I've never been but it looks like a great time!  Not a huge fan of Vegas but most of the action is away from the strip.

I love Vegas , mostly away from the strip or for the bands that play there , i have hiked in the red rock canyon , grand canyon is not too far , Hoover Dam is amazing too , Almost had a job there a few years back but the green card stopped me yet again

I love Vegas, but already have a tripped planned there for Memorial Day weekend.  Red Rock Canyon is awesome if you get a chance to go on a cruise.. :bradsthumb:

Hmmm I was all about it when it was MOPAR's only . . . I feel that now it will be over run with Ferd and chebby's  . . .  Would rather save for other MOPAR only shows . . .  :dunno:
Drive it like you stole it . . . And they're CHASING you!

Last year they opened it up to other makes, but only a handful showed up. It is still I'd say over 90% Mopar. We will be attending again this year. Love the event and love any excuse to go to Vegas  :woohoo:

I was at the MATS 6 years ago with buddies and I want to return, maybe next year.
It was a very nice trip, We rented 3 Dodge Challenger at LAX and we stayed 12 days between Vegas and LA.
I remeber the trip between Los Angeles and Las Vegas with our buddy and his 70 Hemi Cuda. :inlove:
70 Dodge Challenger 340 A66.

I'm waiting for parts but we should make it with Greg's Cuda. He's going to trailer it and make a few runs and I plan to drive down in the Viper. I feel that the Mopar attendance should be about double what it is. There has to be way more Mopars around than what show up. So I'd just as soon it fill up with Fords and GM's that I can check out than die due to lack of participation by Mopar guys.

Sounds like fun but now that it is not a MOPAR only show, I'm not that interested.  Plenty of shows like that a lot closer to me here in Michigan . . . if it was still all MOPARS, then maybe.

Very few brand X cars were there last year. I have to agree, better to have a show with some of the competition than for the show to go away completely.  :grouphug:
