    Who has decided that they are DEFINITELY going to go?

    Just wanted to get a count. Bet DAB could use it. Not sure if he had enough takers to get a MAVERICK class started for us.

    I WILL be there, even if I come without fenders and valence, but hopefully, they will be painted before then.

    No way to bring the car? Just tow it on a $50 Uhaul...that is what i have to do...

    ANd with gas down under $2.40 a gallon, we can ALL afforde it :clap:

    Honestly, I would rather look at 6 trailered maverick projects than at 10 completed mustand projects.

    It takes more work, imagination, thought, and endeavor, to restore a Mav or Comet.

    Can't make it, even on 2.39 a gallon...cum on, you wuss! :p

    Yeah, I couldn't make the MCCI meet for the same reason. By the time I got a hotel, gas, and trailer, I could have flown two of us to Hawaii for 4 days. Instead, we stayed home, cut the lawn, and sat in the jacuuzi tub.

    This is going on when? Weekend after this one? If so I'll be near there (in my wife's minivan) What are all the details? where? when?

    If someone mailed me an ebrake assy and a radiator I'd put stickers and plates on my Comet and drive it. And no, If you sent me those parts I couldn't afford to pay for them and I wouldn't send them back.

    Close as I can say is maybe I'll be there. I'll only be 100 or so miles from there(which is like next door in Texas) I'll be with family and would love an excuse to get the heck out of there for the morning.
