I am dragging both my Pintos out west to Denver and driving back to carlilse.  Just for you guys and Gals. I actually live about 3-1/2 hours from Carlisle.  So I am making the trip in reverse. Let me keep trying to work some magic, Some people will be heading your way on the way back, if I can get a support vehicle for that i will. I am working on it, believe me, my goal in all this is for all of us to arrive and get home safely.  Just under Ten Months to go!!!!

Wow!  That's what I call dedication.  If I could get my Pinto together in time and find someone to drive the tow vehicle for me, I'd be tempted to do the same thing!  I'm approximately the same distance from Carlisle as you.

I still gotta get the pic of my car sent to ya. Of course the car won't look the same as it does currently, but she still doesn't look too bad with her 20 foot rattle can paint job.

In many ways, I wish I could but: #1 - the Pinto is in all likelihood not going to be ready by then anyway, and #2 - there's going to be a conflict with my son's high school graduation.  What fun it would be, though!

Well,

I have decided. I booked a room for 5 nights and will fly back for my son's graduation. Even though I won't be able to do the entire show, at least I can do the Stampede and be there for a day. I'll be in my mid 60's for the 50th anniversary and if I can't make that one, at least I will have made this one. I may be able to offer my hotel room for the nights I am away (Sat and Sun)if my friend from Jersey doesn't come out. Things will be more clear as we get closer to the date.
Now, to get the airline ticket....and. ..oh yeah, the new paint!

Welcome aboard, I got your pictures I will post them on the Stampede site later this week. Accomodation should be worked out in the next few weeks for the trip.  I will post here as soon as that is worked out.  We have two Pickups for support vehicles coming from the east coast so far.  Anyone with a trailer or pickup on either the Northeast or Southwest (southern Cali) wanting to donate for the trip, we can compensate some for the vehicle, give a letter for tax donation (charity drive) and will perform full tune up etc to make sure you truck is taken care of.  If interested contact me at bosspinto@pintostampede.com

The pic you posted of my car looks pretty good. Now if only I can get the body work somewhat decent for Carlisle, so she can do good at the show. I don't care if she wins but it would be nice if people don't look past her ugliness. Compared to other 77-78s that were there in 2006 my car was very much the ugly duckling.

I have just purchased 12, 2 way radios for the trip so we can keep in contact.  They are used (list new for over $500.00 a piece) The have extra batteries, etc. I will also make them available to Stampeders during the time at carlisle so we can keep in contact and just incase you come across that special Pinto part at the swap meet someone may want.
 
9 months to go.
 
I have two support vehicles and I will be purchasing two trailers for the trip.
 
I should be announcing accomodations along the road and the final trip adjenda in the next month, we are making lots of phone calls trying to get the best rates and something that will work for everyone.

Here is the latest, the Indianapolis Sleep Inn is setting up a car washing station, reception and complimentary barbeque for us.
 :lol:   :welcome:   :hypno:   They love the idea and cannot wait to have a parking lot full of Pinto's.
 
I am also finalizing hotel accomodations and have gotten some really good rates.  I will contact the Stampeders with details and reservation information in the next two days once I finish signing the agreements. 8 months to go....

Well,
 
I have all my rooms booked and will register for the show tomorrow. Love the Cruisin' Wagon with the  Stampede sign! I'll be driving my orange Runabout. My wagon won't be ready for at least a year. This will be a blast!! I told one of the reservation agents at one of the Sleep Inns about all the Pintos coming her way and she can't wait to see them. I have to work out my webcam so I can broadcast the trip live. I may throw an extra rear bumper and Pinto taillights on a small utility trailer I have to carry extra parts for anyone who may need them. I can call it a Pintrailer! I have a bunch of new timing belts and some boxes of other items that may be useful for anybody who breaks on the way. I just have to decide if I want to yank a trailer for almost 3000 miles.
