Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Have to commend you on using the train system . Not many people do vacations with them anymore. Always a rush to get to the destination. But like motorcycle trips the destination most times is secondary to the ride. Saw this and thought of our conversation the other night.

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Welcome Gerhard. What part of Germany? I will be heading to Germany for Oktoberfest from 9/13-9/26 while you are here in the US. Enjoy.
Your itinerary skipped the southeast! The C10 Nationals are 9/27-9/28 in Maggie Valley, NC. That would've been a great show to attend for a European C10 fan. I am surprised nobody mentioned them. Are you going to C10's in the Park in Texas 9/20-9/21!

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Dear Lady, Gents new question:
In which state to buy a original stetson and which one. Is 10X the right one? I like this one but no experience. https://www.stetson.com/store/hats/w...ml?color=black

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
That store location closed. There are several other stores available. You might enjoy going to the Ft Worth Stockyards, maybe take in a quick rodeo at Billy Bobs Texas?

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
.
Hey Cornerstone, Are you attending Goodguys during that weekend with your truck? You might consider it as it really is a unique experience to be able to drive into the show in a C10 ( or any classic ), park and cruise through the show and up on the track at the end. This would be something that GerhardH would truly not have had the opportunity to experience. Sunday isn't the best for Classics only ( All American Sunday ), but it's still the best way to attend a car show! -klb

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Any good western store will be able to help.
One of the largest selections I've ever seen is at Bear Creek Western Store about an hour above New Orleans in Montpelier, LA. Open 7 days a week, very knowledgeable staff and very good prices (actually better than most of the bigger "chain" stores. I've been dealing with them for 30 plus years. https://m.facebook.com/pages/categor...2129939155793/ If I'm not mistaken a 10x is pure beaver felt. That's what my Resistol is |
