    I forgot to mention that the BBG at NPD Sat. night was great. The food was some of the best ribs and chicken I have eaten and everyone went away full. With the positive response I heard, I hope the club puts it on next year.

    Ray, I hope you don't have to use the roadside emergency kit I gave you, but it is reported to be able to take care of most problems. Enjoy! Got a picture of it for the folks?

    It must have been a full day for Frank. It was reported that he had to go back to the motel for an afternoon nap, worn out from all the excitement and talking. That's what happens when you get to be an old fart like the rest of us. lol

    My time at the show was kinda spread back in forth with the Cougar folks, the Mustang club, and the Mav/Comets, but I was glad to be able to the folks from Ga., Capt. Comet and Lil, and all the other fine folks. Luckily , they were next to each other. Between the Cougars, Falcons, and Maverick/Comets, we had around 60 cars there.

    Oh yeah, Dennis and I got interviewed for an upcoming magazine starting up in March called the Pinto Times, and the Sprint may end up on the cover of the first issue. It is primarily about Pintos, but will also touch on other models, such as the Maverick. We will see.

    Thanks, everyone for showing up. I am getting ready to head back out to the park for Day Two. Stay tuned for more upcoming news.

    Jim

    Rock on, my '74 coupe is getting some muscle, via the 4.6 Intech. Hope to have it on the road by May. We want to use the fwd, from my '96 Lincoln. working out the logistics now. Maybe rwd, with a nice 9", would be better. Any Ideas hit me up, thanks.
