Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
i plan to make it out, but as usual for me i never know what may happen at the last minute, so no guarantee
i'll either be in my POS monte, or i may have my SS going by then.
if i do make it, i'll bring some drinks, dogs & chips.

Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Hi Guy's,
Looked like I wasn't going to make it after all as on the 15th is our big family Christmas and it was goin to be in Dallas this year. Because of the meet they are either going to move it to the 22nd or change the location to Houston. How's that for a family??
I'm going to try and get the Convertible repainted by then.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
I went to autocross this Sunday and my bird actually survived, i will get the rockers adjusted next weekend and if everything goes well i will be able to make it. I got 5th place in novice class, but at least i was able to stay ahead of 98 mustang by 1 second lol.
anyway, I'm really looking forward this, and my manager was surprised when i requested half a day off almost three months in advance lol

Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
For those who are traveling solo, I think it would be nice to have some kind of help in case something happeneds. I'd hate to get back on the boards a couple days later and find out someone couldn't make it because they broke down the side of the road. Everyone please save this number in your phones to call incase of an emergency and depending on how far out you are and what problem your having. Maybe some of us could head out there with our tools to fix the car and get it safely to the gathering or get you home. The number is (813)478-3600.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
you mean moving it to start somewhere around 12:00? that would screw with my scedule pretty bad... I'm sure we could bring couple work lights and make it daylight lol. It probably would be better for everybody if started around 11:00 that way there is enough time to set everything up and just have fun

Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
I was thinking maybe 1:00pm then BBQ from 3 until dark. I know it is a little late to start trying to change the times, so should we just leave off the "until dark" think and keep the same times?
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
If I am not mistaken we have started around 1:00 pm in the past, but as stated it is a little late to start changing times. I will be there around 1:00 and easily BSing until dark.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Hi guys im new too this board, i am going too try my best too come down there from dallas and bring a few friends cars with me....its a drive but should be well worth it
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Awesome man, you should definitely do it. Although its a longer drive than I have been on with my car I always enjoy group cruises. Its what building these cars is all about.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
In a separate thread, I'll post a reminder as we get closer to 12/15 stating that we should all start showing up arround 2:00 pm, but I think we should still all plan on being there no later than 3:00pm. This will give the out of towner's a little more time to make down here.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Yeah, good idea. This isnt the marines or anything people can come and go as they please so it will be better for some of the people scattered around town or further to have a later arrival time. I am sure there will be alot of us there early. We dont get to do these things much so I soak it in as much as possible.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
*JOY*
Man, i got a dilema. It is like "Well, if i pull the Y5 that works so great and sell it not to pay for the crossmember and fix the new rear the car will sit"
So im like F it and its gonna be a T5 W/2.73 10 botl when you guys see it. Oh well
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Yeah, I wouldnt risk it man. As you are well aware too many things can go wrong during all of these "custom" swaps and it ends costing alot more than you think, takes more time, etc. I say just roll out how you have it(new clutch of course) and this way you can put a little more money aside and be more prepared for the big stuff.
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Just got the day off approved will definitely make it out there as long as the day doesn't change close to the meet.

Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
My mom is flying in town that day to spend the holidays here, so I will try to be there after i pick her up from the airport. As long as yall still let me bring my vette.
Mike,
I read through this thread, havent seen Barry. Im assuming he knows about this, have you heard from him?
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Barry will most likely come with Sue (Craig's wife), who by the way is trying to sell Craig's car. So, most of you guys know the car, so keep an ear out if you know anyone that might be interested in it, I'm sure she'll appreciate it.

Sounds good! Any other traitors, come park with me!!!
Re: Official Annual Fall Memorial / Re-union Gathering - post here!!
Iim still planning on coming and getting my son to come by too with his 90 bird. I've decided to put the stock shifter back in because I don't feel like modifying the car to get the B&M Megashifter in. I'd like to sell it if anyone is interested. I also have an extra heavy duty cable I bought because I didn't realize one came with the unit. Im sure the car will be just as fast with the stock shifter, even though I have shifted from 1 to 3 on occasion while racing.
If anyone is interested let me know, I will bring the shifter to the meet.
