Because this show is in my town and "all vehicle styles are welcome" I will bring my Windstar and enter the competition. Don't laugh. In the past several weeks I have had a big itch and had the car lowered 3 inches in the front; has a nice rake. ......I put on slotted chrome wheels.......have gold and green pinstipping tastefully done on the sides and back.......although only sketched outlined, I am having the Trinacria put on the hood. It's a big hood and will look real nice.

If anybody wants to meet for breakfast at 9:45 Sunday here, let me know.

That was quite a sight, if I do say so myself. The charter Posse members know what you are talking about but I'm sure the newer guys could not possibly envision that sight with the trees and the wreath. Ah well.

Steve....it was great to see you and Cheryl again.

Thanks for bringing up the show and congrats on the win. Your car looks better and better everytime I see it.

As an aside, to me, it's too bad the Posse has events restricted to corvettes only. It kinda eliminates former 'members' from continuing to enjoy good times with past friends. I know I miss former 'members' , like yourself, but I guess rules are rules. In any case, I'll see you at future shows. I know if I ever get a corvette again and am running an event, all past Posse 'members' will be welcome no matter what they are driving. Friendships/good times are more important than cars, IMHO.

And thanks about the comments on the Windstar......it is coming around but will take time. If I get a big bug up my fanny I will do radical work on the engine/drivetrain/etc and compete. ....Seeya.

When did we start having "rules"?
I must have missed that "meeting".

As far as I'm concerned, anyone who can put up with us (and doesn't mind our driving habits) is welcome.

I miss the long lost, but not forgotten, Posse members also.
