Geeze, that is a ton of work to sculpt that car. Bummer he had the left rear wheel fall off on I-465E after he left C&C. He got it to the side of the road, but that was dragging the hub the whole way. Then he had to retrieve the wheel that had kept going.
Now thats funny! Hey, looks like I am finally in town to attend Saturday! Can't wait to reconnect with everyone!
Still at Paradise Bakery on Merdian 10am? i ust came in. big day at indy track tomorror am but will finally make your group. look for 550 color shift green/purple/black
Hi bundas, Yes, 10:00-ish is good. The bigger parking lot is actually McAlisters which is right next to Paradise - you can't miss the group. Look forward to seeing you there!
Mitchell...good to meet you over breakfast today. Hope you make the drive up another time to join our little get together. I'll get pics uploaded shortly.

128 pics from yesterday: https://picasaweb.google.com/ZUL8TR83/CarsCoffee22 And no, a 6'1", 207 pound person should never try to get inside a Countach. Worse than that, the same person should not try to climb back out of said Countach unless a chiropractor is readily available to help properly unfold you.
Cool....yes! Comfortable...NO!!! That car has brought many a man to his knees trying to pour out of it!
Hi RJ, Good to see you again. Made Liam's month - thanks!! Definitely a treat. Image Unavailable, Please Login
William... Great to see you again as well! Glad Liam liked the car! He is the right size to fit comfortably! haha
If his love for exotics continues, it will actually help him to be vertically challenged like his dad
Really great turnout yesterday! A few f-cars showed up: Mondial, 308 & 348. Looking forward to a broader representation of styles through the years.
Just a reminder, this is still happening every weekend. I've just been distracted and not remembering to do the weekly bump to remind people. There were more Austin Healey (1) than F-cars today = Ferrari got a 0 for representation. We'll have to fix that next weekend. Right?
Sorry I had to miss - sitting in Chicago waiting for my flight to Germany. . . . . Was out of town the last two weeks. Maybe return the 15th with the 308 which is visiting the Tin Ranch for some touch up work.
I have some bad news and some good news: The bad news is that I sold my 308. The good news is that I made some money on it. Am I banished from Cars and Coffee, now?
Did you trade it on a Civic with a fartcan muffler? If not, I SUPPOSE we'll let you visit...but only from afar. LOL! Seriously, you were talking about a purchase of something else. How'd that go?
I was considering the purchase of a wrecked 1959 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider Veloce, but I have backed out of the deal. The car is too wrecked for me. I'm currently looking for something entertaining. Got anything in mind? (Except for a Civic with a fartcan muffler.)
Allright, so where are all the Indy guys for this event (www.ferrarisandfriends.com)?? http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=379326 I think back to those of us (ME mainly) who came down from Ft. Wayne on many weekends in the early days to help get Indy C&C up and running....I have hoped over the past 3 years that this event would draw some of you guys up to Fort Wayne. What should I be doing that I'm not in order to get some of you owners up to participate in this event? On a side note, if you follow the link above, you'll see the 'Vette thing that we are doing....we are 6 cars short of a 60 car display of Corvettes. (1953-2013). If you know of anyone with the 'Vettes listed, let me know. We are very close to doing something that has only happened once before..... JIM
Jim, I would absolutely love to come to this event. Unfortunately each year it has lined up exactly with business related travel with this year not being the exception. Pretty damn frustrating as you have built a world class event that I would really like to be part of. Not only do I miss the Ferrari and Friends event, I am also scarely seen at C & C the past few years. Again, frustrating. . . . . . .
