Mini Meet sugestion ! ( Georgia) Ok this is just a suggetion and is open to everyones input... How about planning to get together at Fun Ford Weekend in Commerce Ga. (Atlanta dragway) April 16-18 2004 ? Its in a really central location for everyone from the southeast and they will have an all ford swap meet,Drag racing , and Manufacturers midway. Just off the top of my head I`d say we could easily have at least 6 or 8 Mavericks and Comets show up. What do you all think? http://www.funfordevents.com/2003/Events/main.php
Sounds good to me...I may just have my latest project ready by then (just another 71 Grabber...#4). Atlanta is close enough to me that I just might be able to make my first mini-meet. Let's get it going.
Ray, the Grabber #4 project, will it be the Grabber you were trying to sell a while back or different one? Just curious, because I remember seeing the pics, and I know it would truely be a project for someone, but nice to see it saved.
mini meet Keep it going guys dont let that guy slow you down by changeing the subject. I'll get you back to the subject. MINI MEET-MINI MEET MINI-MEET MINI-MEET-MINI-MEET :bananaman :bananaman :bananaman COME ON NOW RALLY THE TROOPS.
Dave...it will be a different car. I just purchased this one from a guy that has been racing it so it has a lot of goodies (4:30 9" posi, Centerlines, subframe connectors, fuel cell, rear mount battery, and a few more goodies you'd see on a drag car) on it less the engine and tranny. I'm going ahead and disassembling the body and stripping the paint off since his backyard paintjob was a little nasty looking. I'm not going to try to make it into a show car but a nice little hot rod I can drive every day. It'll be sharp but I'll put my show car efforts into my Grabber Green car that I've had for 30 years. I already have the drive train to install in it but have to get the body ready first. I'll post pictures as I get it going and keep you guys updated. Oh yeah, I already told the wife to get ready for Atlanta so let's get that mini-meet going.
Dennis; I will try to get with M.A.V. and some of the others, and I will call Commerce and see if we can get some official recognition and space. You gonna try and make it??? Earl
I doubt it. Thats a little too far for me. About a 8 hr trip one way. Too much for a weekend show. I'd like to get this news letter to the printers by the end of the week so let me know as soon as possible on the mini-meet.
