Welcome aboard " Chip " :Handshake Yes he will be stocking parts,,

 

just for general info, chip is a great guy and a wealth of information on these cars. he is more than willing to share his info to. just look at his web site and search thru his how to section. they just moved the club headquarters to a new facility and i can't wait to see it.

 

Yeah he is,,,, He is always working on some thing cool,,, sending him stock of parts here this week,,

 

I wonder why there are no CAMEO guys hanging on this site. They have some really nice cars and I would like thier input on some of the mods they did

 

The times that I have met and and spoken with Cameo club members they act as if they have never heard of or seen this board ...I find that hard to believe coming from anyone who has internet access and is a Maverick/Comet enthusiast.

I invited them to visit the board when I met a couple of them at Power tour 2006,
they showed No interest.

 

they are (for the most part) a pretty tight group. they don't do alot of shows or cruises. they show up at silver springs and the power tour regularly. chip started the club with his family and it grew from there. don't be put off if they seem unfreindly, they just take time to get to know and understand. they really are very nice people. one of the best looking upgrades chip does on his cars is to close the cowl over. it stops the rust issue and looks killer. if you look close most of his cars have this mod. his son in law also drives the blue comet that someone put a ton of work into louvering the hood.

 

Hi'ya Group !
First time on here in awhile but I'd like to clear something up. I have no anomosity towards any other Maverick/Comet associations or individuals that I've met either in person or online .
Its all about the cars as far as I'm concerned and I try to focus my attention on "Restomods" of these neat little cars. A lot of the folks I've met are in to numbers matching .. o.k. by me , others are into making them beautiful , o.k. again .,Still others want their cars to be mini "rockets" .. definitely o.k. by me again. Also there are those of us who want it ALL ... which I personally feel is the way to go ..ha.
I don't want to disturb the body lines of a Maverick or Comet from their original design .. I think FORD knew what they were doing there.. I just like to "pump up" the power , and modernize the drive train to its optimum. Also a great paint job and interior are also very important to me. I think that I've just described about 99% per cent of the people that I've met that drive and own these great little cars.I have met a lot of nice folks..(Dennis Martin , Russ and Fran Martin )-(no relation) , and others from another Comet / Maverick club and they were very cordial and also helpful with information we shared about our cars. I really don't remember "acting" like I never heard of the other clubs.. ( how do you do that anyway ? ha ) Of course I've heard of them , and read this forum when I can get to it..which is infrequently. Just for the record folks... I love these cars , and I'll help others in whatever way I can if asked . CAMEO ,Inc. Deland, Florida .. Chip Crenshaw

hey chip, glad to see you on the board. great hanging out this weekend. i am on pins and needles waiting for your next car to be unveiled. if it is as good or better than your current it will be awesome.
has joe given you any time frame on when his buisiness will be up and running in brazil and if so, when he is looking on getting parts up here?

 

Chip,,,, Glad to see you on the Forum,,, Welcome,,,,, Its been a while since we got to talk,,,, Dont be a stranger,,,:Handshake

 

has joe given you any time frame on when his buisiness will be up and running in brazil and if so, when he is looking on getting parts up here?
-------------------------------------------------------------

so joe since you are here can you answer this question? i am really looking forward to boomarangs and bumpers.

 

I'd like to say that I had the opportunity to meet Chip and some of his family this weekend at Silver Springs. You couldn't meet a nicer guy. He and the Cameo guys have some very nice cars and I look forward to finding out more about some of those mods that were mentioned. I also can't wait for the next Silver Springs show. My wife and I have decided that we want to make that a yearly vacation. It is a beautiful place with more cars that you have time to look at. Thanks again to all of the Florida guys and their hospitality. :Handshake

 

You Also met Frank (71gold) ,And I at the 2006 Power tour in Perry Ga.

We checked out yours and your buddies cars and spoke with you about this site,explaining that its the largest Maverick/ Comet site on the `net with a lot of members....You both said that you "might" have been here
before. Your 3 posts since joining in 02-08 shows your interest(Ironically the same month you became a dealer for Joe`s parts.) We pointed over in the direction or our cars and explained where they were and ya`ll said "ok".

We both went on our way thinking that although you guys were nice,
You seemed to be Into your own group (to each his own) and not very interested in Our cars ,or this site.( I know this isn`t THE only site as I frequent other sites devoted to these cars too.)

No hard feelings.

 

Ray, how did it feel to be Chip and some of his family? Did you wear the panties/bra when you were his wife/girlfriend?

Sorry Ray, I had to.

 

Geez...that was a bad screwup, wasn't it? Thanks....uhhhh...... buddy!
