    Why when I click on the link for the galleries I only see 3 pictures? Is there another gallery that is set up somewhere?

    Sorry, I was thinking last weekends Gathering. Your link is for the Roundup which is this weekend. I am sure there will be more pictures as the week progresses.

    Well, I don't have enough memory in my .to account to upload these, so I will link them.

    Here is Don Graham heading out for another run. That is 2007 MCCI Roundup Nationals Host Nick Dominick, his wife Donna, and his daughter Amber in the background.

    The track was working for Don!

    Excited new member Mannie lives in VA not far from the track. He joined up to meet some fellow owners, and brought this pretty slick dark green '73 Maverick. He has a definite subtle style with the bench seat and dark persona. It sports a sbf with Trick Flow heads. He had the painted steelies and poverty caps on all corners....but traction was an issue, so he put the Weld wheels with meaty tires on for a few runs. This is a very late '73-July build date.

    The guy behind Dennis' Sprint had a top of the manifold blower. That car ran pretty well. He and Dennis battled a bit.

    No, it's not Pinky II! It's Raspberry! Nice guy. He's a friend of Dennis from Maryland. Another new attendee!


    I came inside at 12 midnight. There was a crowd out in the parking lot looking at Doug Bauers old photo albums of previous Roundup events. More interesting than the car photos were pics of the people, how they had changed or aged, and how the kids have grown so quickly!

    This is a great event. If you have never been....you should try and make one.

    Goodnite-

    I want to ask Mannie about that shock tower brace set up.

    I did a search the other night and saw where Stephen Moore bought his from MPG (to fit a mustang )and had to modify the crap out of it to make it fit. They also Make one for a Falcon and I`m thinking it may be the one that Mannie has, and maybe he didn`t have to modify it as much to make it work.
    I see he had to drill anew hole in the cowl to firewall seam to make it work but I`m thinking maybe that was all.
