    That's the one Ryan! Is it just me or do these paint jobs or wraps get to busy sometimes it almost seems like camoflage? LOL

    Sadly I wasn't there with my Maverick, but with two buddies running Chevy's...I know, I suck.

    Camoflage for sure. My first time lookig through the pics that a guy in the mustang club posted I didnt even notice it was a Maverick. When you mentioned one with a flag on it I went back through them and saw it. I am ashamed to admit that i didn't notice a Maverick, I must be getting old.

    We were lucky and sold our house just before the housing bust. We paid 139K for our house in Peoria, 1/3 ac center cul-de-sac lot w/pool in 2001, put on a 700 sqft addition and sold it for 305K in Aug 0f 2005. Our old neighbors we still talk to say the people who bought it from us just sold it at short sale for 110K :49::49:. Wish I had some extra $ to had been able to buy it back. When I was an inspector for the City of Peoria we had new home tracks in Vistancia where some of the houses were going for a mil and now people can’t sell them for a 1/3 of that, man that sucks

    Hey Cheez you would have recognized me by the tissues hanging out of my nose. (Clothespins hurt too much! LOL)

    The car is getting there Craig. Just put the motor back in for the final time last night. The tranny goes in tonight, then I can finish the cold side and fire it up.

    Housing was stupid for a while. Things seemed to have settled down now, but I don't expect housing prices to go up very soon. Crazy economy. But I'm probably about to be banned for getting off subject everyone. And now back to your regularly scheduled programming...

    Not really sure...I didn't really look at the body of the car that closely or even think to ask. :(

    It looked like a wrap to me, but I wasn't that close to be able to confirm it.

    It always falls through. Im trying to get togethor the Az. guys, first on the board, then set up a meet. If we can get all the random Az. guys that have posted to all start looking in the same thread then we can start talking about a meet.

    I have two trains of thought on how to setup a meet. One is to get a consensus from everybody on when and where they want to do this. This can take awhile and still not have everybody happy. The other is to just say when and where it will be and give enough notice that evrybody can plan around it.
