Pinto enthusiasts,
Please mark your calendars for June 12-15 and plan to attend this years Central Regional Meet in Tulsa, OK.
First and foremost, this is a meet for Pinto enthusiasts. Pinto's from all walks of life; beaters, drivers, projects and show cars. The nucleus of the meet will be hanging together, sharing tech tips, restoration tips, kicking tires and if Pintony is there..telling lies.
Picture this.....on the top of a hill with no trees around, an 8 mile view in any direction, a big tent, smoked barbecue if we are not in a burn ban, cookout, campfire, primitive camping, tent, trailer or local cabins. That's where we can hang out all we want.
I would like to stress this is for EVERYONE, any car, no car, whatever. We need to unite as PCCA first, then those who choose to participate in the car show (details following) with their cars, great. If you don't want to put your car in the show, that is fine too. I don't want anyone who thinks their car is not show worthy to pass up this event. The show is a blast even if you do not have a car in it. Please read on to understand the Ford weekend events, it is really an awesome time.
*******************************************************************************************
There is an annual Ford meet that we planned our meet around last year and it was very well accepted and attended.
Please take a few minutes to view the web site of Mid-America Ford and Team Shelby Nationals at:
http://www.midamericafordmeet.com/Left_nav/Schedule.htm
Please note the schedule from Wednesday through Sunday. There is something, hopefully many things that will get your interest with this show.
As we plan for the Pinto community that attends, keep tuned to this thread.

Hey Dave could you be more specific on the cabins? Are they in farely close proximity? I thought I would get a cabin but only if they are like down the hill otherwise I would camp.
Pintony said we were going to get a surprise visit from the PCCA bikini team. Is he pulling my tailpipe?

The upcoming meet has inspired me to get some work done on the pinto... :lol:
I ordered a new carb and will hopefully get the engine bay dressed up a bit. Currently going thru the wiring mess that the previous owner made. At the moment I'm trying to source a few parts like a grille and passenger side front marker light. Looks like Fred Morgan will have a grille for me... ;D
-
TulsaTurbo,
I still have that hood rod for you....I will bring it with the plastic clips. You can get rid of that bungy cord going to the back bumper... :lol:

I would really like to attend this if possible. Would also like to meet some of you guys in person. Just depends on my work schedule.
How far away are the events from where we are staying and do you have to attend all four days, because I could probably swing the weekend from late Friday to Sunday.
But it really looks like fun. When do we have to register for the car show and commit.
-
RKK,
I would love to see you make the trip. I have posted a new thread to this topic with registration links, etc.
As for the layout of the land here in Tulsa...the show is at a large hotel in south Tulsa. The road course is NW of Tulsa, about 30 miles from the hotel. The place I have sugested we all hang out is NW of Tulsa, about 20 miles from the show grounds. The 1/4 mile track is NE of Tulsa, about 23 miles from the hang-out place. Hotels can be had all over town, although I just checked the official show site and the sponsoring hotel for the car show is sold out. Tulsa has a lot of options for hotels/motels with I-44 rnning through town.
Thanks for the support! Look forward to having you down if you can make it.

High_Horse,
I guess I'm planning to go to Tulsa again, so maybe we can travel together again as the Wichita delegation. I have a huge old two room tent that you are welcome to stay in (if you'll help me put it up and take it down). It has its own carrying box (the casket; serves as front porch furniture) that was carried in Polly a number of times. I assume the "camp ground" is Dave's new place?
Goosh, I really should get around to getting middle window weather moulding and a paint job.
Alan
-
PollyAl,
Sure Al...That is a nice drive from here to Tulsa. I am game for the tent also, it sounds like a good time. I was planning on looking in on the cost of renting one of those cabins that Dave was talking about...at least to take a shower in. Maybe a number of us could go in on it.
As far as the paint and windows are concerned why don't you just hold off cause I have the windows but I don't have those little hinge things and when you pull the windows....tha ts a good time to paint. Anyway I will get on the phone with you later.

Planning for the Tulsa show is progressing smoothly...tha nk you Dave and Pintaro for providing the Hang out and support equiptment. The Pintony group will be leaving wichita kansas friday morning the 13th of June and going directly to the Hang out. We are planning to stay two nights over and return after the show on Sunday the 15th...which concludes at about 3 in the afternoon. Anybody else that wants to travel in this convoy let me know so we can communicate before hand. Again if you want to make it and your car is not ready...come anyway. Again, let us know you are planning to attend.

I plan on coming up Friday From OKC... I'm taking the mother road instead of the Turnpike.
So Marvin(the Car) and I will cruise 66 and take lots of pics on the way.
I have lots of work to do....
FrankBoss
-
Frank.What time are you planing to head out on Friday?
-
as early as possible....I'll have more of a idea as the we get closer to the weekend.... I just dropped off the radiator and I'm going to the muffler shop this week...I'll keep in touch.
FrankBoss
-
Well Frank, those are definitely two things you need to get resolved there Boss (radiator and muffler) LOL
Things are coming together. Many thanks to Pintaro for bringing a generator, as I am a few weeks away from getting a power pole set. Thanks to PolyAl for bringing a large tent....and I have a portable air conditioner we can cool it with, so camping won't be too rough. That is as long as the show weekend isn't like this weekend, tons of rain.
I am going to make a new post to track who is registering a car in the show.
Dave

Hay Dave! Can we expect picks like these from the 2008 PCCA Central Regional Meet, in Tulsa, OK?
-
I am planning on even better this year!
Dave

:hypno:
Yes....eye popping!
High_Horse

just a couple more days...
FrankBoss

Pintony arrived here in Wichita and he, I and PollyAl will be leaving Friday morning for Tulsa. Again anybody that wants to cruise with us send me an I.M. Looking forward to seeing you guys and gals and your Pintos. It is going to be a good time.
High_Horse

Mike, Al,
We are supposed to have rain Friday morning, hopefully over by the time you all arrive, hope you don't have to drive in it. Maybe you will be on the back side of it as you come this way.
Please ask Al to bring a tarp to put his tent on since the ground will be wet 9having rained, well drained). I have tarps to place under the big tent once it is up to at least give us some dry to walk on.
I hope the carpet laying is going well, nothing like having to put up with Pintony in a bad mood! LOL
Dave

Dave,
I have a tarp I can bring...thanks for the heads up............ ... ;)
