Sal,

No problem coming by on Friday...if you want to help me clean up the shop! Don't worry EVERYONE seems to stop by on the Friday before the Summit.

Jamo,

Looking forward to some of the old timers coming by. I am planning the lunch menu--I don't think anyone will be hungry!

Ron,

NO PEEKING upstairs where all of our ORIGINAL parts are hiding...

David

If you need help with anything on Friday, just say the word, I'll help with anything you need. It's not like I have anything to do all day but sit around my hotel room and wait for Saturday .

Anyone who comes to all 3 Summits and donates tires whenever we need them is an old timer. Maybe I should have said you were an "original timer"...soyyrry for my mistake.

Had this gathering been one week later, you might have suffered watching me eat and drink far too much, in company with Gerry H and co....(prior commitments and 'business' meetings..so much for me being 'retired'). Keep Gerry away from the food - or get more in!!

JAMO

I have been photographing and crawling all over Gerrys Stratos recently and had it not forecast snow (no sign of it) I would have been driving it today. Trust me its wonderful - as good as it gets. If had room in a nice warm garage, I'd be very very tempted. I can also reveal that a new brochure is on the way (as I'm involved with it) 'cos Gerrys previous material does the product no justice. Order one at once.

p.s. I'm not on commission tho I can be persuaded

Default Kirkham Summit 2005 5

David
Made flight reservations for my son and myself to arrive SLC Friday Eve. Booked a room at La Quinta Inn Orem/Provo. Assume that is not far from your place.
If anyone wants to meet for Bfast Sat. AM would be glad to meet up.
Looking forward to my second summit and your family's hospitality.
Great news about Barret-Jackson.

Thanks Trev.

I understand them to be one of the best recreations of any classic.



Now where does one find a Dino V6 hanging around?

As Gerry will tell you, about 12 of the 400 built to date were fitted out with the Ferrari V6 but the Alfa 3-litre is just as quick (almost) makes all the right noises and is more reliable and considerably cheaper. Also the small 2-litre Twin Spark is not to be overlooked as it is lighter - hence even better handling. Depends what you want from your Stratos.

Cheers Fritz

Would LOVE to come, but almost any other weekend..!!!!! Got 3 previous appointments and cant get out of all of them. Have a litte drink for me tho.

Dave, You must know Jamo was only 14, four years ago and only weighed 98 pounds.

Sure wish you would give me some kind of idea what you are looking for with the 41. I finished my cobra and have been looking for a possible next project. That willies keeps calling to me.

David,
I sent out a new large spline aluminum Toploader today for you to display at the Summit. I wish I could be there but right now I don't see how I can.
