    Sorry to hear that. We'll try to cheer you up when you get here. Have a safe trip. So far our trip has been uneventful. Hopefully it'll stay that way.:):)

    We made it to Santa Rosa NM with just a couple of problems. Tammy's A/C quit, evap core leak but lucky for us the weather has been cool. Her car also lost a fender emblem that I just about hit. Some construction forced us to drive over the rumble strip and it popped off it bounced off the ground at least 7 feet high. I'm looking at it like what the heck is that as it amost lands on my hood, at the next stop no emblem. We also stoped at the Metor Crater, pretty cool.

    So does anyone have an extra that I can buy at the show, I would hate to loose points for that missing :D

    That sucks your air quite working and you lost the emblem, but atleast its simpler things that went wrong :)

    I am loving this thread! Thanks for posting. And next time you are in Santa Rosa, stop by! Oh yeah, Santa Rosa, New Mexico, not Santa Rosa, CA ! Keep posting the trip!

    I guess your not going to make it into Texas. (Dallas area) What other stops might you be making. I'd love to get a look at those cars of yours.

    Great pictures. Those are some very fine examples of Mavericks. Those pictures remind me of when I lived in Colorado.

    I can't wait until my wife and I can be a part of that... :)
