It was a great show and I had a great time. I had hoped to meet more of you from the forum. Because I was unable to get either the 72 or the 73 ready in time, I attended the show with the 2002 CETA, so I was parked off on the side lot. I hope to catch some of you next year, especially BWB, since my 72 and his 72 spent a little time together a few years ago.

Hi Frank. Glad to hear you made it, albeit with the modern car. Maybe next year I'll bring something. Either the survivor 73SD (which I get yelled at for cleaning) or my Gramma's 75 (which I get yelled at for modifying).

Did you drive the CETA?

P.S. the last Flemington Cruise Night is this Saturday 9/5/15 if you're around town.

:-)

Hi, Steve. Who is doing all this yelling? Life is too short for so much yelling.
Yes, the CETA was driven. A great driving car, lots of fun, and great MPG. Thanks for the cruise info. I can't believe all the summer activities are winding down, seems like we just got started.

[njsteve]

What kind of mileage did you get? I am curious because we have the 2001 WS6 6-speed sitting in the garage that seems to go through fuel mighty thirstily....can't possibly have anything to do with the way we drive it????

[frank.g]

It got between 27 and 28 this year. This is lower than in the past, due to the 10% ethanol that is in the Penna. fuel. In the past, I have got between 30 and 31 on trips. Gotta love 6th gear. And yes, if you mess around with it in town, considerably less.

[Norwood]

I got 16.6.

[superdutybob]

What rear screws do you have Craig? 3.73s? If so that's pretty damn good.

How's my old girl doing? Do you see her much?

[Norwood]

Don't see her much but hear she is a fast as ever. 355 out back, I got into it this year and we were doing 70-80 most of the time. Brew complaining because of his 373 gear. Bob you need to plan on Norwalk next year.

[Brewster]

Those heads he's running arent stock which gives him the most advantage.

I was all prepared to go and the ball was is Winkle's court waiting for permission. Apparently he never got it and dropped the ball. I was looking forward to tipping a few with you guys.

[Norwood]

Norwalk is close to Detroit, so maybe.

Missed this....

[Norwood]

Who's the guy with the big head?

[Brewster]

Its duh Blue Boner

Frank - Saw your car at the show. Love the Lic Plate.
Steve - 4th gens around town go through fuel. Its only on the open hwy do they get good #'s in 6th.

My 78 TA with the T56 gets 17-19 mpg on the hwy. Around town & fun driving brings it down to the 11.5-12 area. Still not bad for that antiquated 455 mill.

Great to see all these cars being driven and enjoyed!

[notime]

Stupid me didn't get any pictures so lets see some more. I didn't even get one of the car I brought.

[Judge273]

Not mine...

[SD455DJ]

Darrell, here are a few of the few I took including the car you brought, but not the one your wife drove.
