    I didn't make it to the show on Saturday. However, I was on North Glenstone Saturday night. Who owns an Orange Mav with flames, possibly green or blue flames? Great looking and sounding car. It was cruising and I couldn't track down the owner. Anyone on here?


    Robert, I'm always up for local cruises. They're having the Anpac car show this weekend but I'll be out of town.

    That was John Chandler's (Chandler) car. The flames are Green more pictures of it are in the 2006 Roundup Gallery.

    Luke sorry we didn't get to meet.

    That was it! Nice car Chandler. When it caught my eye I thought it was Jim Allen's, although the blower and flames threw me for a loop. Sorry I missed everyone, except Robert. It would have been nice to put some faces with some cars.

    Now I regret not going on Saturday, since Sunday was a toad strangler. Did you guys see any other Mavs/Comets? I meet a guy in south Springfield who is building a full tube-chassis Mav. He said he might have his car there. He had plans to run a 4.6 twin turbo Cobra motor. I haven't seen the car since mid-summer.

    Any other cruises/shows planned in the STL area? My in-laws live in Wentzville, not too far from Chandler, we're up that way pretty often.
