I was there last year on friday before the car show on saturday. I was looking at a green 72 vert setting next to the road in a hotel parking lot but had to pass. The guy that had it was a nice guy and from grove oklahoma if I remember right.
That was the same weekend that eureka springs had a bike rally so it was the best of both worlds.
Dont think I will be able to attend that weekend in october. My loss.

I was there last year with Ol' Red.(parked across from SHOWME!) Not going to make it this year. Red is fine (Better than last year!!) but I'm going to be in FLA for 2 weeks.

I'm not gonna make it this year either!Hammerhead popped a piston when the dizzy broke!
I was not going this year anyway's after being tailled everywhere I went by the POPO while I was there!I was very disappointed by the way they treated a few of us.I wanted to be able to take in the sites with out a cruiser a half car off my rear!I was very good and did not provoke the escort back to the campsite everynight!
I hope that it is better for everyone this year.In the past we enjoyed it alot!
Please keep us let us know how it goes this year.I love the town!

My next door neighbor told me about this. He went last year and was really bragging on it. I think he took his 82 Silver special anniversary vette there. He was looking forward to going back this year, and I thought about following him in my vette. But, about 3 months ago, he was riding his custom bike back from the races and a drunk girl left a local bar, and ran over him, killing him instantly. I got home one evening and noticed he had left his car outside underneath a tree, and was just about to walk over and jump on him for leaving it there, when my other neighbor called and told me that it was him that got killed. I wouldn't mind coming, but I think I'll wait till next year. Be sure somebody post some pics on here of the rally.

Coming up after the Harvest Festival in Rogers.
We'll be up after we work the Harvest festival in Downtown Rogers. We sponsor this and make free scarecrows for anybody that wants one. There's live music on the stage, farmers market and hay rides too. Starts at 9am and finished at 1pm.
We do this every year. I'll probably drive the 71 there. Lotsa fun and could be a break for you all and a great twisty ride through state forest to get here. (about 20 miles) I'm giving our face painter a set of vette emblems to work off of in case anyone wants one.
