    Pretty sure I have you beat in the ugly department. :) [​IMG]

    By round up it will have small bumpers with a blue rear valance, green front valance, blue hood and blue drivers side fender, and silver grill all on a black car, with either silver or red doors. And it will still be slow. But I bet I'll get the best gas mileage on the way there of anyone who drives their Mav there and run 70-75 the entire way. :) It'll all be one color if I can afford the spray paint. :rofl2:

    THat was funny and fun especially since no major damage was done and we had Tod up & running by the next morning. I dont car what your car looks like, Everyone has something to add!!! Its the people. The cars are what brings us together but the people is what makes it fun!!!!!!!!!!!

    Don't let the picture fool you Scoop. The passenger fender is the only body panel forward of the quarter panels that won't get replaced by round up. The doors look alot better then they are. They are rusting from the inside out, unfortunately. You could probably poke a screw driver through the bottom of them. I have a set of 100% rust and dent free doors on my '76 parts car, but I'm hopeing this '72 I'm buying will have pretty decent doors because I really want the 70-72 door handles/arm rests.

    Thanks for the compliment. It really means alot. This year mine may be back in primer I am just getting started replacing the rusted quarters. But I will do my best to have it there.

    The roundup is too far for me. We need more members in the West. :)

    I know this has been said before, but the roundup should be more centralized, like HOUSTON or DALLAS, so people have to drive a long way from both coast (except for us at the south coast ;) )

    Or two roundups, which would be easier for some, but I feel it would start an East Coast vs. West Coast competition, which could eventually become bloody when our kids and grandkids take over. That is probably how the crips and bloods got started, just a simple East Coast Domino Club vs. West Coast Domino Club, and eventually things got all out of hand :90:
