Hi guys & girls......

First of all, I'm here, still above the ground (ha ha)
Doing very good, but still on the mend. Some diffaculty walking, but I'm very happy with my recovery to this point.

Now on to the reason for this posting.

"The Annual Ohio Get Together"
This would be our 3rd.

I haven't done anything with it, but there's no problem with the location, and I'll put everything into action if there's any interest

So please contact me at jimsfinefords@yahoo.com. Or post a reply here.
Also 440 591 8381

Thanks, Jim O'Reilly at jimspinto

Jim I will try and get up there this year.Hope to bring some friends.

jimspinto · « **Reply #6 on:** March 28, 2010, 02:11:37 PM »

Ok, Guys & Gals

That what I wanted to hear, so as to a location...... ..
I don't see anything wrong with what we had last year. If anybody thinks different, say something and I will scout up so
something else. Otherwise there the location

For anyone that wasn't there last year, cant remember (none of us are that young hee hee) and / or wants to come this year. its at the intersection(s) of Ohio Rts. 87 & 44. Newbury Ohio 44065

As to a time & date, Again lets leave this up to the group.

I've talked to the fast food place owner. He says.......
"Get back to me ASAP, as far as I'm conserned, its early enough that the summer is open. Pick a date and let me know"

So there you go, I'd like to see sometime late in the summer, in order to guarentee (ha ha) good weather.

Lets hear some suggestions, what dates do any of you have open and / or want ?

i dont think i have any weddings this year...so no excuses from me. i feel saturday or sunday would be ideal. a little cruise could be fun too. maybe if we were to do this on a saturday afternoon, then take our cars to annother location later in the evening. maybe annabells in mentor, blvd of 500 flags in eastlake (i think theyre running it again this year). i dunno, just throwing it out there.

jim, i have yet to get out your way. i still havent seen my buddies judge. although, i have your number, so when i get out there ill give you a call.

To be honest Jim,

I only care about 1 thing, and 1 thing only. That is the car actually making the drive without breaking down. The rest is trivial to me. I just want some redemption from the 2006 failure.

russosborne · « **Reply #9 on:** March 29, 2010, 12:25:55 AM »

as of right now I am open to any weekend date. Maybe I can get the gas line replaced before this summer. Need to get some tools and line and bend them up. The rubber hose I am using isn't the best.
Otherwise my car is a "no smoking" car. :-)

Good to hear from you. As to getting out here, your almost as bad as me (hee hee)

And as to a cruise, like to Annabells, I love the idea.
lets see what everyone else wants, and hope such a thing can be done.
Thanks Jim O'Reilly

Reply to Bob & Dick
I wasn't going to post here, use up space, make this post longer.
Then second guessed it ! You should never second guess your self hee hee
Your both great guys, and its a pleasure to call you friends

In answer to Dick.....
Yes I'm still on the mend, I feel I'm at about 75 %
I don't know where this is going.
Three major problems at the same time, the body just doesn't want to deal with it. I'm sure you know what I'm saying.
But I'm pushing for recovery, and deffenetly pushing the envelope. I feel no pain, no gain.

In answer to Bob......
All of the above applys.
Thank you so verry much for the offer.
At the moment I'm just trying to keep in touch, and waiting for replys and advise from fellow members before I set a date or anything else.
Not much work there, but I will keep your offer in mind and call you should I need.

Thanks again, the both of you. He** of the Fordpinto bunch.

*******************
Thanks for the reply !
Hope you got the something started, and there will be other replies (quickly)
I'd guess you were talking about August.
I could answer my own question by getting up and looking at the calender, what an a** I am hee hee !

OK, I've looked....... those dates are in Auguist, and they look good to me. Anyone else agree ?
I kind of like the 14th with the 28th for a rain date !

Awaiting your reply......
Jim O'Reilly

14th with a back up of the 28th sounds good to me

phils toys · « **Reply #20 on:** April 14, 2010, 01:28:36 PM »

Yea Dick,

I'm waiting for appproval from "Pinto" guy and gals.
As for you though, should you find a reason not to

phils toys · « **Reply #23 on:** April 19, 2010, 02:07:55 PM »

hay jim ,
having looked at your other post , the Ohio Meet is fine eventhough we show up from other states it is still in ohio.

russosborne · « **Reply #24 on:** April 19, 2010, 09:13:26 PM »

Well, assuming I don't have to work either of those Saturdays, that works for me.
Russ

postalpony · « **Reply #25 on:** April 21, 2010, 10:08:21 PM »

Hey Jim---Did you have brain fade or what?

In your last post you said, "As for you though, should you find
a reason not to-------------------not to what??
Maybe those 'happy' pills kicked in, & you took a nap! Don't leave me hanging, let me know what not to do.

Now I don't care who ya' are--that there is funny!

Wishing you all the best Dick

jimspinto · « **Reply #26 on:** April 23, 2010, 01:06:29 PM »

Ok, here we go.
Just about everything in one post ! I hope, but it's gona be long !

Russ--- For Gods Sake, take a day off ! You'll have fun. See below !

Phil --- Got Ya ! Thanks.
Nice additude, Ohio it will be !

Dick --- It might have been brain freeze, except I'd question me and the BRAIN THING. I don't know, see you there and we can "Discust it"

To Everyone
I set the dates, locked them in as
August 14th, 2010 Back-up of August 28th, 2010

Starting time........ge t there whenever you can. I will be there at 10 am. We could have our little gathering and hello's maybe eat some of his "old time greasy food"
Enjoy the day, then hit a local cruise or two.
Any input would be GREAT !

Please post any questions to this sight, or just call me if I could be of any help ! 440 591 8381

DIRRECTIONS
The place was called "Dairy King"
Not Queen, King.
He's changed the name to "Two Coneheads" As in Ice Cream Cones.
I'd think eather would work as a name, the address is..
12399 Kinsman Road, Newbury
Ohio 44065 his number is 440 564 5613.
Now some of you have been here before, but I'll refresh your memory....
Kinsman Road is Ohio Rt.87
Rt, 87 is 8 or 10 miles north of I 80
on Rt 44. Turn left, go 150 feet your there.

Again, Ohio Rt. 44 connects with all major highways, so there are exits on both Ohio Rt, 2 and I 90.

For both of them you go south on Ohio Rt 44, Give or take about 20 miles to Ohio 87, turn right for about 150 feet, bingo your there !

You couldn't get lost if you tried, but call me for anything.

Thanks, Jim O'Reilly AKA jimspinto 440 591 8381

There's no spell check, I've done the best I can...........

russosborne · « **Reply #27 on:** April 23, 2010, 06:54:08 PM »

Well, I should be there. I haven't had to work a Saturday since I started here, but you never know. It is hard to turn down overtime if it comes up. Money is good. :-)
I am hoping that I won't be driving the Pinto though. I really hope that by then it will be in my garage getting lots of stuff done to it.

Well I hope for the "lot of stuff" to, but it'd nice to see the piinto there.... Jim

russosborne · « **Reply #29 on:** April 25, 2010, 06:03:13 PM »

yeah, going to have to see about the money situation.
Been thinking that getting the II 8 inch rear in might be all I get to do right now. Maybe get the II aluminum rims mounted with the tires currently on the Pinto as well. I pretty much have Ferrari tastes on a moped budget. :embarassed:

Trying to find a 4wd small truck like a Ranger or S10 to make the daily driver. With a very small budget. Have to get something before winter. We might not be able to keep insurance on the Pinto when that happens. But I need something besides the Pinto for winter driving, and my wife needs her car back.
