-

Wheee...
-
I'm in also.Can't bring a Pinto,how about a Stiletto.See you all there.
-
Yea, Harley! Can't wait to see the Stiletto in person!
-
Looking forward to hitting the road with my Pinto friends again! Yelb, you have almost 8 months , plenty of time to get that wagon back together.
-
Harley!!!! Awesome, I cannot wait to see that Stilleto!
So far we have a Stilleto and a Pangra, man this is gonna be awesome!
In a few short hours we have Fifteen Pinto's people!
Richard, Mike, Jeff, Arnaldo, Jim, Dave, David, Harley, Brian, Norm, Louise, Scott, Tony, John and Wayne.
All have signed on to drive their cars barring any unforseen circumstances.
Looks like we have a Stampede people, I am looking forward to this years event with a newly found passion.
-
and a Pangra....
who said I was gonna drive the monster ::) :P
-
That would be me. :o You have to bring the Pangra if Harley is bringing the Stiletto. 8) Think of all the people that would not even know either of those was a Pinto. When they see us rolling up and you two guys are in the lineup, heads will roll! ???

DANG IT DANG IT DANG IT
-
We will be in Memphis too! Hey Scott, Tammy and I can hook up with you guys somewhere and fall in line! I've been working on the red one all weekend! I am pumped up now! Finally will get to meet all of you guys! I hate that we are going to miss the gun shooting! Oh well we usually shoot gangster style anyway if we are traveling, nothing brings a family together like shooting from a moving car! Just kidding, we stop and get out! Heehee
-
We are up to 19 Pinto's now! :o I guess we made the right move. 8) This one is looking big! ;D
-
After all the fun the last two years. You know I'm honored to ride with such a great bunch of guys Barring any unforeseen circumstances I am in. I've added a couple of ponies to the heard since last year and hope to get a couple of guys to saddle them up and ride along. Thanks in advance Norm, Jim and all of you who help make these happen.
-
Red,
We will be traveling up to RockFord and basically doing the Stampede trip in reverse. Pass right by Memphis... When we meet up with with Norm and the gang, we'll retrace our route back to Memphis. It's so far away right now the plans are in sand. I'm kind thinking I could get my Yellow runabout going for this trip- nothing like an event as the Stampede to get you motivated.. Honestly I don't think I would have completed my Green runabout without the 40th and the Stampede hanging over me. Good Stuff!
When it gets closer we can have some fun and plan out the reverse trip together and anyone else that wants to join us...
Looking forward to the trip already... :D

Can I bring my Pinto powered AK Miller turbo 23 T bucket??
-
John,
We had a non-pinto on the first stampede. The standing rule was to stay in the back. So I would say yes since it is Pinto Powered. But I think we would much rather see your 1972 or 1979 Pinto.
-
Ok.... :-[ So I don't have to ride in the back I'll bring one of my other ones.
I sure hope my rotation falls so I can meet you guys up around Memphis!! ;D
-
Shoot me an email John, I will get you on the list for updates and I need your information so we can keep in contact on the road, etc. Glad to hear one of the Pinto's is coming. Sorry ofr the rule, but the Pinto's drive up front, you can lead part of the way if it makes you feel better. ;D No unhappy people on the Stampede. 8)

DANG IT DANG IT DANG IT
Tommy- What's up? You can't come out and play?
-

-

but is cool. i cant wait. my baby is already apart getting ready. hopefully the first week of next month it be at the paint shop
-
Tell Sheri that it's a 'requirement' to attend this Stampede... It's like ommm.. Research.. Yea, Like figuring out how to best support your Pintos in the future- Paling around with everyone can only 'enhance' (well most of us anyway) your knowledge of Pintos and thusly support her Pinto...
Yea- that actually sounds good...
Steph says HEY to Sheri...

-
Tommy, don't let them peer pressure you into going, take care of Sherry. We got plenty, that is of course unless you can do both.
-
Oh there is no peer pressure. This may sound Corny, But I have an Extended family. People that I (and Sherry) ENJOY hanging around. And to do it for a great cause? That is icing on the cake. Our Family, Friends and even my co-workers know what we want to do on our vacations. I would have never thought that a little car would have led me to get to meet so many Great people. We have so much fun just hanging out with everyone. Even Harley. This is not just a car club to me. It's a brotherhood (and Sisterhood) of people that not only love there cars but other people.
-
Let us know..... ;)
-
Brenda and I are planning on attending. It sounds like a great time. It may be a little warm for a ride like that in the V* Pinto, but we are game! Count us in. TommyS and BrendaG....... ..... :)
-
Great news Tommy, I got your email as well. You are added to the list, we now have 20 Pinto's scheduled! I have an aluminum radiator in my V8 Pinto (Griffin, custom made, cannot say enough good things about them) I also am installing an electric fan this winter because when stuck in traffic in high heat, the temps do go up. She never overheated, but I don't want to take any chances. Putting them on all my Pinto's this winter. Just some food for thought.

-
Well Crap, I already had the time off for the CA run...... Oh well, some day something will be close...
-
I sooooo wanna do this. I can't do Carlisle this year due to my buying my own place but I wanna try to do this.
-
Matt,
Just say the word and I will add you to the list, I stil have your information from before. I have over 27 Pinto's signed up so far, we still have about 5 months to go. Planning is coming together and the run will go down America's first Interstate, The Mighty Mississippi, we will travel on the great river road and it is going to be an epic ride. I understand this is one of the most beautiful drives and it should be a fun one..........
