fabulous fords forever car show

[bscottie]

got my room booked, next year my anny will be in the show, just an observer this year

I'm not going to just throw new head gaskets on a tired bottom end. I think it's time to save up for a stroker like you did. Did you buy a short block or put it together yourself?

I bought the rotating assembly from Coast high performance (local) and had help with putting it together. Though, when I finally get the LTD LX up and going and converted to SEFI I'm thinking of saving for a 347 SB. Their Street fighter kit is good for up to 550 hp and is just under 2200. Not too bad when you think about it. And with you being in SoCal, you could just drive your truck up to Torrance and pick it up.

Yeah, I'd probably buy an assembled short block. There are several placed in SoCal selling them in the $2K range. Unfortunately it's a bad time for this to happen as I'm putting away all my extra pennies to save for my upcoming wedding, which is why I don't foresee getting my car fixed any time soon unless I just want to throw the stock engine back together.

Ah, ok. I understand.

Who is all coming to FFF? and of those, who's gonna be of the f/z/l/m crowd?

[Hemlock]

I want to go to the show but my RS needs exhaust work. It has a really bad rattle in it ATM and I haven't been working very many hours lately so I am wondering if I am going to be able to afford to pay for the exhaust to get fixed before the show. Might say screw it and take it anyway even with the rattle.

So what is the game plan for this year? Where are we all meeting at? At what time?

[NAVYCAT]

i'll be there but not entering just looking

[bscottie]

I'm heading up Sat. morning, gonna try to find something fun to do, will head to the show about 9:30, staying at the Knotts hotel, will be in the 08 GT

[TNT]

I'm going, even though the car isn't pretty. If there aren't other fox stangs going, there's no point in me meeting before the show. Even if I roll in with the ltds I won't be parking with them.

[Roy_86_GT]

I'm going ... only as a spectator though. It would be great to meet some of you. I'll find the four-eyed and hopefully find some of my fellow FEP members. I've never been to Fabulous Fords but it seems like it will be a great show!

[Marz]

Well, I'll be there in my 85 GT and my mother will be there in her 89 GT vert. It'll be her first time going. I dunno if she really knows what she's getting into!

[Marz]

Some of the inland empire guys are thinking of meeting at the Denny's on Orangthrope and Beach in Anaheim for FFF. The time has yet to be decided. But I'd prefer 7am so we can eat breakfast then leave for the show at 8am.

[TNT]

7AM at Dennys is fine with me. If there wasn't going to be a meeting I was just going to grab breakfast at a drivethru and eat in the car.

[LTDScott]

My head gasket replacement is about half way done. Providing the car runs once it's back together, I'll be taking it up there. I know a couple of the normal LTD guys won't be coming this year.

I paid for my entrance, so worst case scenario, I'll take my Focus and have a bitchin' $30 parking spot, heh.

Sent you a PM.

Most of the guys in Club Mustang Empire are all Fontuckey and corona area. But there are though of us on the western areas of LA and San Diego areas.

[bscottie]

I'm heading up from the San Diego area Sat morn, anybody elese?

[LTDScott]

Yessir. Normally the "other four eyed" guys meet up for breakfast early, which means I leave butt-ass early, but I dunno what the plan is this time.

[TNT]

Damn, forgot it's further from home than my sister's like I did last year. So 95 miles if I stick to the freeway. I'm leaning towards sleeping in a little and eating in the car rather than try to make it down there for breakfast at 7.

[bscottie]

that would be cool, where and when, I was gonna head up 15, do you generally go that way or 5?

my fox is unfortunately setting without its motor and the other fox I am not ready for a road trip that far yet so the GT is gonna make the ride.

[moelll]

so it looks like 7 am at the denny's sweet. btw, can we bring stuff like chips and sandwiches in coolers? i really dont feel like paying 4 bucks for a half liter of water and 8 bucks for a slice of pizza

[LTDScott]

Yeh, you can bring whatever food you want.

[NAVYCAT]

thats what we always do, BYO! its cheaper....

[Marz]

The denny's I talked about in an earlier post. At about 7am.
