Post by: Tbird232ci on May 14, 2005, 10:55:23 PM
It was a blast, a few people that told me they would show up didnt, but it was no big deal, we rolled into the park 7 deep, well...i limped into the park....and we invaded a parking lot which was ment for use by a rented pavillion, but it was all good

total count of people was:
myself
5.0willgo
lowcat
BondoCougar made a suprise entrance
Bane (personal friend; stang boy)
Josh (personal friend; ranger boy)
Luis (personal friend; SC boy)

here are the only pics that came out with my camera:

This meet was great. I'll post my pics a later this evening. I only got two lousy pics but I'll get them on here. Maybe we can get together again around Cecil and hit the drag strip.
Hey that pic of my engine looks great :D

Here's my two pics. Lowcat and I met in North East and I followed him down until we ended up missing an exit and in an effort to make a u-turn, I became the lead car.
First pic is of me following lowcat and is all fuzzy which sucks but meh.
Second is the group with the exception of Bondocougar and Bane. Notice that Luis has a bottle on my hood. :nono: yeah.

Looks like y'all had a fun time.
Sorry I couldn't make it, Shawn. I've been VERY busy working on the transmission on the '96, as well as trying to move out of my apartment.

It was great to see T-Birds & Cougars all in one place without having to drive to Ohio! As well as a Fox Mustang.  Good stuff to see if I did my 3.8/5.0 conversion right!

Its always real interesting to see what upgrades can be done.  I'm sold on the interior paint, the dash pieces looked new, and I needed sunglasses to look at the polished Cobra intake upgrades. :bowdown:

It was also more general than CatJam in some ways as I have not personally ever had an opportunity to look at the Turbochargers (the part of an engine I'm especially clueless  :crazy: on) in the TBirds before.

Thanks for setting things up..

Thank you!! I wish I had more time to work on things under there though. That intake needs a little bit of work. You did a great job on your conversion!

Yes the meet was a really good time. You forgot to mention that the nicest car there was when some old lady pulled up in her mint 87-88 Cougar by coincedence.  :giggle:

Could you imagine what that woman would be thinking if we all went over and gawked at the car. Probably give her a heart attack or something.
