    Well the maverick made the 625 mi trip to Tennessee with only a few minor repairs on the way, the main thing was the alternator fell apart driving down I75:biglaugh: not joking.

    Just curious, someone may have something really cool. I have always wanted side window louvers, and a consolette.

    Well, guys just wanted to let everyone know that we won't be able to make the trip. My husband was working on a friend's mustang and almost sliced his finger off. Had to have 4 stitches, 2 shots of lanicane, one tetines shot, and antibiotics. With that bill it took all my driving money and if we was to have trouble... my mechanic. :( I am really sorry that we wont be making it. Please take lots of pics and maybe I can make it to the next one. I'll make sure not to plan it so nothing bad will happen. lol Just wanted to let everyone know as soon as possible. It's 2:29am right now.

    Thank you, Ronald. We were so looking forward to this. Not just because of showing off my car, but I was also suppose to also meet up with my sister that I haven't seen in about 15 years. I hope you guys do have a great turnout and please take lots of pics for me!
