Fall Cruise

[PARKERPOWER]

I plan on being there with two cars. I got the black one out of the paint shop Friday and spent all weekend putting it back together, almost done except for the carpet and I won't be able to get that done for at least another two or three weeks. O by the way it's not black anymore and it's not your standard paint job either. I'm sure I will get a lot of " WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING ". I think it is going to look awesome when finished.

I'm not hopeful, but if I can get my alternator wired up and I can find why the car is overheating, I'm in.

Back and un-packed from Run'nGun...What a Blast! Now I have to clean up the Coupe, oil, brake dust, road grim, track blast, plus an oil change after several 135mph runs.

Here are the directions for Sunday's Cruise/Road Trip. We need lots of cars! The weather looks GREAT!

I would love to join you all, and follow in the Mustang, or bum a ride with someone, but I did not get finished with my Patio last weekend and at the rate it is going, I won't be finished this weekend either. Hope ya'll have a fun cruise and maybe I'll get to meet some more of you next luncheon.

[SSSammy]

Larry, isn't it a *left* turn off Hwy 34 onto Hwy 55 at Avalon? Just tracing it on the map here to see where the heck this trip was going

Don't forget us a nice juicy fuel stop! Everybody please top off before the start, too!
