I'm thinking its about time to have a dinner and cruise to the Fountains at 59 for the Otto's car show! Last year was great, and all the Marauders got LOTS of attention!

Come one, come all Texas (and beyond) Marauder and Panther guys!

Details:

When: March 28, 2009 SATURDAY
Where: Freebirds Burritos @ Greenway Plaza then Otto's @ the Fountains
Time: Meet at Freebirds at 4:00 to 4:30, hang in the parking lot and eat

Depart Freebirds around 6 or 7, head to Otto's at the Fountains (59S outside BW8).

I have a friend who has a Charger, and we have discussed having a general meet together (RWD and V8 guys). I'll see if there's any interest there.


Send a PM for more details, chime in if you can make it!

I'll plan on being there. It would be rude not to, now that I'm in Houston. Don't know if I'll have the Marauder down here though. I might be in my wife's Mustang. I will plan on being there though. When did we do this last? I was thinking it was like fall of 07. Is that right, or was it in 08 sometime?

That's what I was thinking. My buddy that came down with me had a 97 GT convertible in Autumn Orange. I think that was the rarest Mustang color for those years. He sold it not long after that and bought an 03 coupe, then wrecked it at Christmas.

I think my brother-in-law is gonna go with us this time. He'll be bringing his '61 Cadillac convertible. I think he lives out near you Wes, near the energy corridor.

I'm looking forward to the meet.

:bat: I'm in. Looking forward to going. But why so late in the afternoon? Why not get together earlier and take a cruise or do something like shooting some pool before dinner? Are there any golfers or bowlers out there? Batman :bat:

I am sure that Wes appreciates the suggestion....but it is what it is...personally I like being able to sleep in on Saturday before a 2 hour drive....that way we are not in a rush and can take our time...beside...we had plenty to do in 07....and it was the same as this year...if ther is some thing you want to do like what you suggest...you can plan an event...planning is not just limited to forum leaders....

Once again, like in late 07, I will be out. My school date got canceled and then postponed.

Will definitely see you guys around when I get there.

SID, you know I'll keep you posted via Yahoo IM or text.

My MM has been parked at my in-laws in Belton since we've been down in Houston, and I didn't plan on having it down here for the cruise night. BUT, my wife is going up there and picking it up this weekend, so I'll have it!!

I just got off the phone with Brian Talley....he said if it doesnt rain he will bring his Marauder....if it does...he will come in one of his other cars....By the way....he is still selling it....a SB with only 2,000 miles on it! Thats right, it is not a typo....TWO THOUSAND MILES!! When we saw this car in 07 it had 1,400 miles on it...still smelled new....I wouldn't mind seeing this rare treat again!!

I won't be able to make it, but you all have a good time. I know Wes is great at putting on events.

I am still working on an Austin meet. I had so much come up this semester at School it just wasn't able to happen as soon as I would have liked. But I will post in that thread with updates.

I'm getting ready to go rinse the car off. I'm ready for a burrito and beer - and then some ice cream at the cruise night.

Oh, yeah, seeing the cars too. That'll be good.

Thanks to all that made it out. We had a great turnout and a great time!

Also joining us was a G8 GT, a Caddy CTS, and some folks from the Lincoln board.

Everyone forgot to bring cameras but we had a few guys that did take some pics.

Please email me or post pics if you have them!

[QUOTE=SID210SA;739667]Mike....some how I didnt get to say hi to you

I was thinking about that yesterday - I never talked to Mike! I did see you, just never ended up in the same spot at the same time. My wife and I were talking about your car - she was asking me about the lights under the mirror. We'll have to make sure that doesn't happen next time!

Great seeing everyone again...one of these days maybe I will come out of seclusion for real.

Thanks for posting that vid Murder, Nice to see us get a little love from The Impy crew. I was the bonehead that attempted to answer your questions and hid my paint chipped dented up ride in the back of the pack.



By the way, unless my memory is gone completely, that was your pops's ride I couldn't stop staring at...very impressive.

mrjones
03-31-2009, 02:44 PM
OK, I realize the youtube video was made by Impala guys, but that has to be the only video in the world with 3 MMs, AND NO BLACK ONES IN IT!

You can count me in for that for sure. Might even be a good event to include a trip to the track...
