paul cass · #1 (**permalink**) 11-04-2003, 02:55 PM

hey guys
at 5 pm friday we will start the tailgate party at my shop. one of the local tv stations has tentatively scheduled to do their 5 o'clock newscast from my shop. threrefore if any of you can get there before 5 we can have a good picture for the newscast. i'll head straight to my shop from school and should get there by 4.

at 7 pizza will be served.

on saturday i need for the cobras to be at the dealership at 8:30 to set up before all of the other cars arrive.

we will leave for charlotte plummers in rockport/fulton at 1 pm.

after lunch we will head back to corpus via the ferry's and across the island.

begining at 7 we will meet at q's sports bar and billiards.

what i need on this thread is a head count of those that are coming and when so that i know what to plan for. i'm getting good coverage from the newspaper, tv, and radio. i need to know what to say concerning the cobras.

anyone needing race gas it will be available before 5 on friday and between 8-12 on saturday. if you plan to leave your cobra in my shop please indicate so on this post.

anything i've left out i'll post here.

weather looks to be dry and in the 70's with overcast skys.

see ya this weekend!

I need help! I have to be in Dallas this weekend so I can't make it to the event, but I need to get the event shirts to Corpus! I am picking them up Wednesday. Anyone coming down from Austin want to meet me on their way through and grab them on Friday. If not...I can send them with someone from SA(Bob?) on saturday maybe?

I will make it very convenient for you! 210-522-3789 day or 210-366-0317 evening.
Thanks,

Paul, barring any catastrophic activities, I will be at your shop before 5. Will need a place for my Cobra to sleep if I can get a ride to the hotel. Later.

mr0077 · #6 (**permalink**) 11-04-2003, 08:17 PM

Make David sleep under his cobra...hahahaha. I'll give you a ride if you need one, David, unless you want to ride with Tony in his pimpmobile again.

Thanks Ken. Is the Corpus Christi Hooter's open for breakfast?

Robert T. Faust · #8 (**permalink**) 11-04-2003, 09:16 PM

Dam, you guys in Texas know how to live right. What a great sounding group. Wish I was there. Have a great Saturday.
Bob

Dennis Mosley · #9 (**permalink**) 11-04-2003, 09:25 PM

I'll be coming down as well and will be there by 5 unless David slows me down

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

mr0077 · #10 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 05:25 AM

Dennis, show David how to put it in 4th gear and which pedal is the gas and maybe you's guys can make it by 5.

David, that's a good idea, I'll check with Hooters and let ya know...maybe they can whip up some special sauce for us.

Jim Weatherall · #11 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 10:16 AM

Ruth and I will shoot for <5. Space in your shop overnight would be nice.

Jim

Paul,

I will be keeping my car at the hotel so there is space for another car in your shop if it's needed.

mr0077 · #14 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 02:38 PM

And Hooters is NOT open for breakfast...there is an IHOP across the freeway from Hooters, and on the way from Paul's shop to the car show...anyone want to try meeting there at, say 7:30 Sat. morning?
Say, Paul, maybe we should check into Hooters for Saturday night? Huh, can we? Huh? LOL

kountzecobra · #15 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 04:38 PM

My little smallblock don't have a 4th gear and don't need it to keep up! Just needs a bunch of gas! What time and where are we meeting up near Houston? We still going Hwy#35? Hooter's is a must sometime this trip.

Tony, since you are going to be busy all weekend, send your wife to Corpus for the weekend. She would enjoy the change and wouldn't have to put up with you all weekend. I promise to take care of her and keep her away from any temptations.

mr0077 · #18 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 08:00 PM

Tony, you KNOW she would be safe withg David...he wouldn't tempt anyone!

And hey, that was a compliment on the car, I LIKE those Lincolns...smooth, quiet, fast, and good-looking...say, sorta like ME!

David, I guess you and I will have to go terrorize the local Hooters by ourselves...but we should be all they could handle, right?

kountzecobra · #19 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 09:01 PM

Dennis may join us.

Dennis Mosley · #20 (**permalink**) 11-05-2003, 09:30 PM

Did someone say Hooters....count me in.

this will be one of the few groups I hang around with where I'll be the good looking one.
