I PM'd you through the FFR forum just in case you missed it. Would like to talk to you about a part of the route that I can provide some local information about.

Sure does look like a great weekend. I had to cancell meeting up with the group Friday morning. I will meet everyone in Seaside Friday afternoon. Should get out there around 3:30. Save me a parking space.

Matt,

We'll save you a parking space. Sorry to hear you can't make the first leg of the trip.

Skip,
Debbie and I had a great time last year on the coast cruise. We were not sure we could make it this year but now all looks good for the leg to Seaside. We were able to get a room at the condos across the street from the hotel in Seaside. We will see the Cobra crew at McD's on Friday morning.
Thanks for putting this together.
Scott & Debbie

After much effort to repair my rear wheel bearing, it will not be ready for the trip and I have to cancel. I have reservations at the hotels in my credit card. If someone wants the rooms let me know and we might be able to switch names and credit cards. Let me know.

I tried to repair the hub quickly to get it going for a wedding last weekend and now I’m ordering a replacement hub to do everything again. Hopefully correct this time.

See everybody tomorrow morning. This is going to be another great ride down the coast.

Ward -- Sorry you can't make. Hope your roadster is back on the road soon.

FPT is a couple minute drive from my house and they great to deal with. I am not sure if he does head work anymore. I used Scott at RHP in Tacoma for my stroker BB rebuild. He specializes in BB 429-460 Fords and does a good job porting and flow benching at a reasonable cost. His number is 253-988-6648. I have never heard anything bad about Jim Green.

All the bad I had heard about Jim Green was 25+ years ago. Since he's still in business I will assume he's changed as he's gotten older.

Angry 3rd to 2nd Instead of 4th

GREAT pictures Jake! Got home fine, thanks everyone.

Even with the drizzle on our way home, we both had a fantastic time and enjoyed meeting up with our NW WA Cobra Gang! Looking forward to many more club activities.

Cheers!

Glad to hear you made it home and it was great to see you two again. At least you had better luck than I did on our Montana trip. You may want to talk to Brent about Jim Green, I may be wrong but I think that is who did his motor. if it is I would run fast.

A Montana trip is in the making stay tuned.

Thanks Jake, Fred and John.


Mr. Hamilton, GREAT seeing you Friday we MUST get together with the girls very soon, they can keep us entertained and we can catch up. BIG thanks for jogging my memory about Brent's experience with Jim Green's, I was vaguely remembering he had a "few" issues with their work on his Cobra motor in the early 2000's, I'm sure glad I asked - steering clear for sure.

Much appreciation to everyone for the guidance.

Regards,
Kevin
