Keep an eye out for the 3rd annual NH meet in May 2012. We usually stay(arrive Thurs afternoon) in Tilton and do some sort of activity(s) on Friday and the Car Show at NHMS on Sat, which includes speedy paced laps on the road course. Bring your appetite as we seem to always be eating:lol:

You will find the New England/Mass/CT/VT/ME/RI/NH/etc folks can be a fickle bunch...we've rallied a run to a 99 Restaurant in
(I think) Marlborough MA and if a post goes up about a run to NED or Lebanon you'll see folks chime in....there was even a
gathering to part out a dearly departed KB Marauder S a year or so ago in Mass.

I once posted I was going to be out on the Cape one weekend a few years back and the next thing you know about 4-5
of us were getting chowdah at Capt Parkers and hitting a Saturday car show (where we had people buzzing about the cars showing up in 'MOK
and RF's home turf!).

Mr. Man mentioned about the most formal gathering in NH each May. Just keep an eye on the New England forum....it can be long
stretches of crickets chirping buy you'll never know when something pops up.

Best,
Jonathan

Just found the thread...like reliving a nightmare...at least the community stepped in and I
guess you could say helped the member and the parts live on (the headers
ultimately ended up in my car).

The short/painful explanation is in post 33....some pics in # 138 and
here: http://mercurymarauder.net/forums/showpost.php?p=801731&postcount=144

I had just seen this car win a trophy at Carlisle that year. What a shame.

The thread is CLOSED so nobody should bother the seller or try posting up.

Best,
Jonathan

There's a ton of CVN people in the MA area. We probably have a little get together once or twice a month. Not a lot of marauders here, but plenty of nice vics and marquis.

I helped Bob remove those headers from Mike's engine! What a PITA! I met a bunch of great guys, Eric, Sean, Adam, Bob and Mike. I got the original hood (mine had paint measles), the 4.10 gears, a couple rims/wheels and the axles. Was supposed to get the engine, but, had second thoughts after seeing the oil in it.
Pics? :(

Wicked Bill, never knew you took pics. I have Boston Mike Marauders Trans, TC and rear shocks. I remember trying to get back home that night they closed the NYS thruway and I had to bushwack thru foggy backroads...

I caught this one perfect. Looked like Mike was crying. He just happened to have the rag in hand when scratching. :D
