    I was driving home from work in my maverick at 6:30ish today and I saw a beautiful blue small bumper comet on a trailer heading east on I44 between bourbon and sullivan MO. Was it anyone on here ?

    I saw it at the shelby meet in Tulsa it's here every year. Never got to talk with the owner but it's a very nice car.

    I never saw it after the Thursday cruse, but I tossed a card in the seat with the mmb's address, maybe he will show up here.

    I saw a small bumper Maverick today getting off I-75. It was the same color as Earl's 69.5 Mav but it had a Ford decal on the windshield and different wheels.

    Didn't get to speak with the owner but I did give the car a good look over at Tulsa. Had Missouri tags on the trailer. The car had a slushbox transmission, and a Calvert rear suspension on it. Was a very nice clean Comet with the Grabber Blue and some Weld rims.

    After reading through this I remembered a conversation I had with a co-worker, I checked with him and confirmed the car is from St. Charles, MO and the guy also has an Orange Mustang. I have yet to see the car but will keep an eye out for it.
