Chris is at it again- not sleeping well?? Sit in a quiet corner with your eyes closed and take 25 deep breaths. That should lower your heart rate. If that doesn't work, take a large glass, fill it full of ice cubes and fill it with scotch. Take small sips and the world of Pintos will calm down-LOL. See you Sunday- Joe in Morgan Hill, CA

Ok, I have a time. We will be leaving Sacramento at 7am. We will be going up or down or around (directionally challenged) 80 to Vallejo! So if anyone will be traveling at around the same time, let me know. Maybe we can hook up and drive to the show together!!!

redmustangman3 · « **Reply #43 on:** September 13, 2009, 08:36:48 PM »

Just got back home from the FFS show and it was fantastic. We had 10 Pintos at the show plus other PCCA members who joined in the fun; and boy did we have fun. Talking Pintos with fellow enthusiasts and checking out Pintos we have not seen before. I took pictures of all Pintos and their drivers and will post them next week :,( I'm busy packing for a trip to Louisiana tommorrow morning in the very early a.m. and just won't have time to post them tonight. Thanks to all who attended. Regards, Joe in Morgan Hill, CA

I had a real good time today!! It was an excellent show! The weather was cool, but lousy for picture taking!! Most my pics turned out pretty dark! I tried to photoshop some. Here's a teaser for now! I will post more tomorrow!

Looks like it came out pretty small on here! So I guess it is a real teaser! LOL May need a magnifying glass to see it! LOL

I've got Firefox, so I just right click and select 'View Image'

If I do that, I can see it just fine. Looks good!

pintogirl · « **Reply #50 on:** September 14, 2009, 01:51:30 PM »

Ok, Here are a few more pics!!

I was impressed with this one, he only had it for 2 weeks before the show. Did body and engine work and it came out looking really good!!!

Oops, how did that get in there! LOL

I like purple!! LOL

"That's a 1600 right?" LOL

It was nice being cool outside, but for pics purposes, wish it would have been sunny!! LOL

I really enjoyed this show and can't wait for next year!!!

pintogirl · « **Reply #52 on:** September 14, 2009, 11:34:34 PM »

Ok, I shared some pics with you, now I want to share a little on the trip there story with you!

We were going down the freeway and a guy in a pick up passes us. He then slows down and drops behind us. He never really got passed our front bumper. I told Bob I bet he wanted to get off at the next exit. Pretty soon, here he comes. He almost passes us, then drops back and almost passes us again. We figured out what he was doing the first time he dropped back though. He was making a sign that read, AWESOME CAR!!!! Then the last two passes were to make sure we saw the sign!!

We got alot of thumbs ups too, but the awesome sign was just awesome!!

These cars are so fun to drive!!

Pangra74 · « **Reply #53 on:** September 15, 2009, 12:13:54 PM »

Kimmy, that's an awesome story!!! Don't we just love when someone compliments us on our cars? Did you drive Brown Ghost down there? I'm glad you made it there and back without mishap. I would've loved to have gone to that show. It looked so nice- grass, not too hot, Fords...

Pintopower · « **Reply #58 on:** September 16, 2009, 10:57:01 PM »

Ok, so I swear to god, that is the last time I bring Christine (the red pinto) to that show EVER! Last year my trans lost 2nd gear on the way up. This year some &@#$head in a Mercedes E class (211 chassis) blasts past me and cuts in front of me to get into the fast lane. As he passes in front of me he kicks up a rock that hit the windshield and destroyed it. It was seriously a year old PPG window. Christine is very upset and will not be returning. She is going to make another car go. She's mean.

Pangra74 · « **Reply #59 on:** September 17, 2009, 11:03:25 AM »

Sorry to hear that. I really like your wagon. Actually thinking about getting one down the road. My parents had a new one in '74. They had just had it serviced at a gas station, it was parked out front. Some old truck uphill from it lost its emergrncy brake, rolled down the hill without a driver in it, hit the Pinto so hard it buckled the roof and totalled it. I think it was 6 months old.
