Ok guys I heard back from Muriel and it seems they found someone and are in the process of organizing the ride up where the child lives so she thanks everyone for wanting to help. Mike
Glad it worked out. To bad we won't get to participate, but its all about the child. To see the response that can be garnered by a simple, change meeting in a parking warms my heart. Thanks Mike for following up on this. John K...
Charles...Bring your friend, Its puppy day. I'm bringing along my misbehaven buddy cuz he looks so cool in the passenger seat.
Indeed, a great day. Lane: I did not see your post this AM, I was already out and about. Next Sunday (yes, Mother's day, I know) Gale and I will both be at Glasto with the little dog. I'll post some photos of today's event when I manage to remove my snout from the dinner trough!
I almost called after you as you were leaving as he looked great in the car! Tentative re-shoot next week?

Sounds about right to me, but I'm sure I can't be of much help this time. My hangover didn't start to kick in until around 9:30 or so. Before then is still a little foggy and after was painful. On a side note, chilled Patron with fresh lime juice and Tobasco is delicious at the time, but makes for an angry stomach and brainpiece the next day. Stupid 5th of May and the obligatory excessive tequila consumption associated with it...
Heck no need to run....I'd like to know how you went about talking Gale into going to your favorite car meet with the guys and having her think your doing it for her for Mother's Day...that's a classic.
Well, it's not quite that way -- I'm afraid my ninja skilz are not that good. Truth is: This is one of the few Sunday mornings she can get loose, and I've been begging her to visit some morning so she can check out the new Fiat 500. (She likes the sport version because it gets <cough> better fuel economy <cough> but she said she'd like the Abarth better if it had a 6 speed. I think she needs to see what an Abarth is all about.) I think she needs a fun car again that also doubles as a commuter machine.
I decided to go with the Rustoleum epoxy for the floor, came out GREAT! Also did a clear coat on top for more shine. The 355 is very happy I did a ton of prep work for best chance of no peeling...scrubbed, degreased, even wet sanded with a coarse industrial grade oxide sand paper. Image Unavailable, Please Login
