Merry Xmas! Ok, I know its early but I wanted to give all of you some notice, for once in my life. On the 6th of December, we will be having our yearly Christmas party at Barth Hamilton's house in Azusa, CA. We will be meeting at 9:30 AM for the canyon cruise (new route this year, not for the faint of heart) and those of you just wanting to attend the party be there at noon. Feel free and bring beverages and stuff to nibble on but as usual Barth's wife Virginia will be feeding us! However, those of you that do not RSVP will be shot by Virginia... Please call them so that we have sufficient food. Please no small children as they does not have a gated property. Any children left unattended will be forced to assemble Barth's cars (they are in the same state as last year so the children have plenty to do). Here is the info:

Well thats a really nice offer! I cant commit just yet but have to say that my interest is peaked! Ive been working feverishly to "finish" the Pinto. So now i have even more incentive. Also helps that im only 30 miles from you!

We hope to see you there man, with or without the car! It is shaping up to be a great meet! I have the capri guys coming too!
Wish I lived closer! There don't seem to be any meets around here, I don't think I'd have a problem driving my car to Texas, Arizona, Utah, or Colorado or anywhere in New Mexico for that matter, If there are any guys more local to me, let me know, would like to see other pintos in action!

Nice thanks! However when do you need the RSVP?
As soon as you know you can make it, give Barth and his Wife Virginia a call. There is a note pad next to the phone so they can write down exactly who is coming so Virginia can prepare food.
Hey! I may always be late, BUT, I am always on time! I'll be there eating all of Barth's food.

Alberto I just got set for the 13th. Cant go on 6th Joy has to work nursery in Quarsite AZ that weekend so were off in motor home to camp out there. Fred :(
Crap. I am sorry Fred!
hey fred, might that you will have a pinto with you that weekend?
Chad planed on bringing dirt bike. Are you going to be out that way that weekend. I could bring a Pinto. Fred
I will not be able to attend but please continue the good Pinto Partys. ;D
Damn it Brad, one day we're going to go to you house and drag you over here!
1000 apologies Alberto, your right..... I might need to be dragged. :embarassed:
Actually i live in phoenix so its not that bad of a drive to Quartzite =) Just wanted to meet some of the folks here one way or another
I just got back from this meet and it was great. There were more Pangras there than I have ever seen in one place and it was nice to meet everyone and see a bunch of fantastic cars. Even Pintony flew out to be there and if you missed it you missed a really fun time. Lots of pictures were taken and I am sure you will be seeing a good selection soon. Thanks to everyone who made it happen!
So, I was right.... Thomas (lovepants72) got there at 4pm. Otherwise, all went well! We had a hell of a turn out! I got to meet Gordie and his friend Tony, plus cutelilputtputt drove out from over an hour away. But, as usual, the winner of the longest distance is Pintony who flew out from back east pinto land. I have posted pix and videos so please enjoy! I had a great time and we will do this again very soon!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
