It is official, we have no '77 or '78 for the show in the Special Display area. I will try to get my sisters Runabout in but again, I still need ANOTHER a '77 or '78. Honestly, I will take anything at this point. Are there really none in California? Am I the only one who has cars that pass smog? Prove me wrong people! I dont care if the damn car doesn't run, if it's nice, I'll take it!

AGAIN, I NEED ANOTHER 77 OR 78 FOR THE SHOW! EMAIL ME NOW!

Hey alberto, My 77 v8 cruzin wagon passes smog and thats with cats thanks to to CA lowering the standards but I have solution for that. As far as getting a 77 for the corral I would have to not open the hood, find some stock wheels and plug one side of the exhaust! haha

For the people that ordered parts this is the car you are looking for, for some reason I bring a different car each year but it will most likely be the only Arizona plated car there with a MAN shifter. Fred

Ok, the Ghost is all washed and packed. Now just to fill up and wash the F350, then we can hook up the trailer and load the Ghost. They will sit like that till we leave on Sat. morning!! Oh, have to load some Pinto parts for some peeps in the truck too!

Other then that, I am ready to go. Just need to make it through 4 more days of work!

LOL Thank goodness 2 of the days are only 4 hour work days!

Thanks Fred!

I washed the Pinto today, and the weather forecast shows rain for Thurs. and Friday here. Bob wants to hook the Pinto (on trailer) to the truck and have it all ready to go on Wed. Now I have to try to talk him out of loading the Pinto until Friday night! And with that I will have to hope that the rain has stopped by then. LOL Hate to get ol' bumpy wet after just getting her washed! LOL It's bad enough that I am going to wash the truck tomorrow or Wed. Just for it to rain on it the next two days! Guess I can try to talk Bob into letting them both stay in the garage till Sat! LOL The whole set up will fit in the garage, just wont be able to do any work in there! LOL

In that case, I sure hope we fixed the leak on the truck! LOL It used to leak on the fuse panel. We had the kid re seal the windshield, but it hasn't rained since. Another reason I am going to go ahead and wash the truck anyway. Need to make sure we stopped the leak, if not, will have to try again before Sat!! Fuse panels and water makes truck do funny things!! LOL

Fred Morgan · « **Reply #41 on:** April 04, 2011, 10:16:53 PM »

I will bring a lot of extra boxes. I am packed on parts going to and from, 3 Pinto's coming back kinda has turned into a major mind project not to mention all the labor but hey I finally got my 73 title today with plate and had the wheels smokin into town to get some 115 av gas. Fred

Yesterday I bought a '73 Pinto squire wagon with 4 spd and the 2000 engine. I also joined the club yesterday.
It's too late to get the Pinto in the show, but I'll be there with my '68 Bronco. I want to stop by get some info on a 5 spd and 2300 installation.
See ya at the show.

Fred Morgan · « **Reply #45 on:** April 05, 2011, 09:19:50 PM »

Tom, if you can drive the Pinto there so Brad can count it as a show even if it's in parking lot outside. Fred

No offense here... I call everybody guys too... must be hanging around traffic cones too long, right Fred? lol

Kimmy... just WHAT do you mean by thinning the herd? who's getting culled/going bye-bye?

TOMKLU · « **Reply #53 on:** April 05, 2011, 11:25:56 PM »

Where is Carrows and are you leaving at 8:00? If I don't get there for breakfast I'll see everybody at the show.
Can we say the pinto is there in spirit?
I don't feel comfortable driving it not knowing what the water temp or oil pressure is. I don't trust the idiot lights. I want to get some local miles on it before any big trips. I'm coming from San Diego.

I wasn't offended at all! Just thought it would be funny!

As far as thinning the heard, we are going to get rid the red 77? wagon that we got on the way back from Knotts last year. Then we plan on getting rid of, hold your breath, I know this is going to be a hard one, ready, Shaggy! We have decided that having 2 cruisen wagons already is enough. That and I wasn't to thrilled with Shaggy missing his vin sticker on the door frame. One of the reasons I never pushed to get him registered. Hubby garantees me we will get one of the other ( I prefer the orange) cruisen wagons running good enough for it to pass smog. So I am am going to let Shaggy go. I'm still not sure if I will rename another car Shaggy or not. After all, I have the plates for the name already! LOL Nellie Belle is holding those for me for now. LOL With the economy, I may let the plates go though. Just depends on how our finances do in the future. I may let alot of my plates go. I have 7 vehicles with personalized plates. That would save at least 100 bucks or so on registration each year, all together give or take!

Then the other car that I don't know for sure what we are doing with is the green wagon we got from the dessert. We already scrapped the white sedan we got from Modesto. That is why we are down to 13.

Oops, got carried away! LOL Got a bit off topic. See you all at Knotts, ok, back on topic! LOL

That would have been great if you could have! It would be so much easier to get parts off of cars that are whole, then to have to strip them down and mark the parts what year, and then find a place to put them all. That is my biggest down fall. I don't know what came off what on some of my stuff. Dummy me didn't mark things in the beginning. I do now though! LOL

That place has been rented out though. So even if we did have the money, it is to late! LOL
