East Texas Events

[pvtjorge]

Any parades/events taking place in east Texas this month?

Houston has a big Veterans Day Parade each year. But, you are so far East it might not be worth the drive. No parades in the Golden Triangle?

i think we will have to wait for memorial day

Be nice if there were enough MV's on this side of the state to have a convoy once in awhile. I am a member of BMMP over in the Houston area. And your right Barmann it is a ways to travel for events. I don't care to haul my vehicle down town and try to find a parking place for that parade.

But I have done some with them since I finally got the vehicle on the road last summer 2007. They do one at Tomball every year. It's a big parade. I'm going to try and make that one. Tracy do you know of a local parade on Memorial Day? I see you are just right done the road from me.

I just learned last night from Pistolnut that Brent Mullins Jeeps is putting on a huge vehicle parade/event in Bryan College Station.

Still a long drive for you, but unless something is going on in Tyler, about all you have to choose from this week.

 

[pvtjorge]

Do you know what date the Mullins thing is?

pvtjorge, i think they might have something near the veterans bridge every year.

I just looked on his sight and it is not mentioned. Pistolnut who works in College Station has called me twice about it. A parade of MV's all the way through both College Station and Bryan Saturday with the vehicles in a static display for the rest of the weekend.

I can't find a sight that says that however. Sorry. You might try calling BMJP.

 

[pvtjorge]

Guess I'll try to call Brent tomorrow for some info.

Tracy, yes I saw and talked with the gentleman in Lumberton on the M35A2's, He is a Army veteran whom is the business of selling insurance. He has been buying the trucks in Louisiana. By the way I belive I was in your place of business a couple of weeks ago if it is on College. Do you have an MV now?

 

[tracy]

PT, it is on college st.
do you know how much he wants for his m35's??
almost ready to buy

 

[tracy]

[pvtjorge]

Yes, he said he was selling for $5,000 A friend over in Houston told me that he thought that was a little high. You can always make an offer,
His number...... 751-3276
I don't know if you went to Hot August Nights on 11th street back in august. I took my M38 and rode up and down 11th street a few times.

5k is too rich for my blood....i would hope they are in great shape for that cost.
2500.00-3500.00 is what i will spend-maybe he will come down if they dont sell?
havnt been to the cruise in some time, work in bmt but live in winnie.
if you see a deal on any m35's close let me know,,,,
