I told Gloria that there'd probably be 20 people showing up but it would depend on the weather.

Ralph,
Did you get your fuel spitting exhaust figured out ? It would be good to know; I wouldn't want to be smoking a cigar behind you on the road.

Scott, we purposely tuned it that way to help out the big oil companies!
Actually it's going over to my buddy's shop today to figure out the problem. Me thinks the carb jets probably have to be sized differently. We'll also check the timing while it's there.
I had pulled the plugs the day after I saw you and surprisingly none of them show any signs of running rich. But the engine does not run smooth, especially at higher rpm.
It's just been too darn Chicago-like, to be driving to get it to the shop.

Ralph

Tin-Man the McDonald's is on the east side of Wburg on the 60 and you will arrive there right after passing a couple of Shell stations.

What they all said; Should be on the run with no top Sunday. Wifey said she is coming. She usually doesn't come because no other women show up. Too cold. Who is bringing the female side? Anybody, huh? What?

Fitz, Does that mean some o' the other fine outstandin' gents have bin known to bring either their wifeys, girl friends, significant others or a bed warmer for a ride? Or conversly some of the gay cabalero's just bring themselves, being the female side.

Do tell.

Sandi is planning on coming, as long as I stay out of trouble between now and then. And we may have another couple that just finished a total restore of a 68 mustang fastback. Bullet Green, a Steve Mcqueen wannabee ! It'll be interesting to see if he can keep up with us going up the hill.

Greg brings up a good point in his post. Will there be anyone in the west area that I can hook up with for the ride to Wickenburg? I have no issues finding the place myself, however I would feel more comfortable tagging along this first time out.

I checked Google for the bright star on the left and the bright lights and dancing fairies as Danr suggested, but got no response other than a strange set of question marks and my friends at the NSC warned me about discussing this subject on an open forum. Apparently there is some highly classified work being done linked to the "bright star" and the "Dancing Fairies", dancing faries being the code name for a covert black ops group as in "Fireflies " something to do with eliptical thermobaric energy discharge weapons testing in area 51.

All roads lead to Nevada, right?

Cheers, John, AKA, tin-man
