Lee- Don't worry about Ralphie- He's just getting upset that now he has some competition in the "dirty old man" department....

None of us hold a candle to Danr, in the Dirty Old Man category.

That's what I call a vote of confidence.

Unless something changes with the weather, I'm afraid this car show will be a pass.

Maybe the rain will help that. Pass the soap.

For those folks planning on attending this show, some of us will meet at HIGHNOONAZ's (Gary) house about 8:30 Saturday morning and then going on over as a group. Drop Gary a PM and he'll give you his addresss.

Hope the weather forecast changes for the better.

Gary's address is 6815 E. VERNON AVE Scottsdale. He sent it to me to share with anyone who wants to go.
Be there and ready to go by 0800 hrs.

The forecast does not look good going topless! Everyone keep an eye out and look to the sky and pray.

I don't think that probability for rain going from 30% to 40% is an improvement, but... Everything being as it is, I think I will officially pass on this weekend..

Well, even if it wasn't going to rain,.I'd be grounded. I was setting the valves and one of the adjustment screws snapped off. Can't adjust the valve.and won't have another part until Tuesday.

Danr, maybe you just should no be laying wrenches on your car? You're always breaking something.

Nothing as far as I know except for the Saturday night cruise in over at Beardsley and Lake Pleasant Dr. near Mr. Broberg. Might be a nice evening to get over there.

I did sneak out for a short run just a bit ago while the sun was out. Blasted past the Barrett Jackson show and traffic - looked busy.
