    Well it's almost that time of year again when the Good Guys hold their All American show in Pleasanton. I usually try to go to these since they are only 10 miles away. If anyone else wants to show up, we can try to park together. Usually there is only one Maverick (mine) at the show. I get a lot of favorable attention.

    The Goodguys show is in a little over a week. I'll be there. Will any of you guys in Northern California be there too? It would be nice to have more than one Maverick there this year.

    Two '73 Grabbers at Goodguys

    It was a beautiful day in Pleasanton, CA today. The Alameda Fairgrounds filled up quickly and cars kept coming in all moring. A nice man with three little boys stopped by my Maverick and said he had the same car in white with green. He didn't have it in the show, but in the parking lot. I drove over to see it on my way home, and took some pix.

    I suppose you mean the wheels. I didn't ask him about them, but they sure aren't stock!

    It amazes me how people can take a great looking car like that, and put disgusting looking wheels on it.

    Yes, he is an MCCI member, but he didn't know about this board. I told him about it, so we'll see if he starts posting. He told me his name. I think it is Larry, but I'm very forgetful, so I could be completely wrong.

    He said he's the second owner of the car. So I don't know if he put the wheels on it, or the first owner did. We didn't talk for very long.
