Default AER Car Show

The annual AER car show is Saturday - May 4, 2002.
Last year we had 26 Cobras show up for this event that includes lots of prizes including a couple of engines given away. In fact I beleive a Cobra owner won the 302 last year.

Mark you calendars as Bill Wages is revamping the "Cobra Area" to include the covered parking and now the full corner where the food trailer was so everyone is together. Will we be parked four deep this year!

Smile I/m There!!

Gary,
I'm there....Last year was a really fun event, & we can easily pull in the 28-35 range if we can put 53 on top of the garage in Austin. I hope to have the family with me this year, or at least someone riding shotgun!

Sounds great Gary!

I hope I have my engine back and in place by then (haven't heard anything yet)

Can you post times and directions?

Thanks,
Charmer

Here we go again with the whipped cream AGAIN!

Charmer will use any excuse (i.e., AER show, Focus Day, etc) to be with Tom. I'll take photos of the both of them at the AER show for those of you who can't make it to see the boys in action.

Lightbulb What do you think?

Since May 4 is the first Saturday of May, should we use the show as our Dallas club meeting venue?

Angry Watch it!

Tommy, Tom, Tom, Tom,

It's not nice to be mean to your elders.

The only horse and cart I know of is a maroon F350 pullin' a rhubarb colored ERA.

April will be here in a few days.

Who's Sleepin'.

I've been to Mars and back.

Being a graduate of the Meadows school it took me a while to figure out the plan.

Jim

Question mr. woodard

You make me Laugh!

I think that you were sleeping durning Meadows 101 !

Yep, as most of US can See, that April is right around the corner, and I think that I'm traveling at 100 miles an hour!

Not only April, but also, June and July!

I think I've got a part time job at McDonalds??

Mc Donalds would not hire you.

A friend of mine used to own five McDonalds, and he said he would hire almost anyone that could fog a mirror. You can't do that! lolololo

We won't be able to go to the April gathering either.

Charmer,

What's the word on your engine? Did they determine what happened?

Hey guys,

I'll get the engine back late this week or early next week. The problem was an improperly radiused rod bearing that ended up spinning and disintegrating. Coast High is rebuilding the bottom end with all new parts, including a new crank. They are then rebalancing the crank assembly and putting things back together.

They are paying for everything including shipping. I'm out some time and effort but no money. I'm very happy with the way CHP has handled this

Wow Stretch, good news on the motor. Seems like CHP has stepped up to the plate and taken care of you. I'm impressed. How happy are you about buying the warranty?
Glad to hear to news.

I'm very happy to have the warranty. And the good news is that the warranty comes free with every engine that CHP builds. Also, they originally delivered the motor with a standard water pump instead of the polished unit that I ordered. They are replacing the water pump before they send it back for no charge. Very nice considering I have almost 2k miles on the old one
