    I felt compelled to post this after everything that happened in Owensboro.

    The reactions to the PoliceMav were nothing less than moving. All your praise and fuss made all the work most worthwhile. I've received compliments before, but nothing means more to me that what I heard and saw this week past. You guys floored me with the photo op requests. Some might say the highlight would be having Nick bent over the trunk in 'the position'. That's all I'll say about that.:rolleyes:

    I just have to say thanks!! I didn't do the car for what people would say, but the reactions made it a lot sweeter indeed. Love ya guys!!!!(y)

    I'm sure the pictures don't do it justice, but I've always told you how VERY cool I thought your car was (as do most others on here).

    I'm sure it did feel nice when you got to hear the comments first-hand from guys who really know and appreciate good work.

    I'm glad FOR you that you received the deserved compliments in person.

    Now about bending Nick over the trunk of your car..... :16suspect

    Wes and Joy were behind us when we were coming home from Friday nites eating place. Road was twisty and hilly, I was behind Stephen and Jenny Moore. We were going along pretty quick. Judy ( my wife ) did not know Wes was behind me in the police mav. Wes did a quick blip of the ole siren right behind me. Judy instantly says "$h!t !" I about died laughing. Later on Dennis was getting with it in Owensboro, he see's Wes's car out of the corner of his eye,, he thought he was had. Only person to get busted while in Owensboro was Jim Allen who was right behind Dennis and I, Jim ended up getting a warning. Jim Allen,,, Maverick Outlaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Owensboro was very good to us, from the cops, fire dept, and the residents.

    That was a busy night between Jim Allen's incident and Seth's keys!

    There were also the 3 local cars that came to visit late Saturday from the cruise. The Pro Street Cuda, Purple blown and chopped Ford P/U (the lady that stopped by earlier Saturday with the truck) visited and the White 69 Mach 1 with the 428. Very nice local guys and gals.

    I spoke with the owner of the Cuda, he said he saw 3 Mavericks at the same time and knew something was going on somewhere. So they stopped by on the way home.

    Steve and I pulled in the Gas station the same time that Jim got pulled over. Luckily it was only a warning! :90:

    Hey Wes, I LOVE the car!! (y) You probably noticed me eyeing it all weekend!

    Cometprincess, Please Give Alittle Warning When Your Minimeet Is In Silver Springs, I Can"t Remember When It Was And I Think The Georgia Contention Might Just Make A Big Showing If We Have Enough Planning Time. Thanks Wayne
