11 Attachment(s)
Lynn, Holly and I drove over to Pavilions today to check out the cars and meet up with folks. We met up with Glenn Benthin and Dave Gilsmer. What a surprise! Missing Jacquie Benthin...Missing John Ward...Missing Allan Siferd.
Saw Shaun and Paul...and lo and behold, Eddie Montini was there, too!, So were Charley, Mike Greenawalt, Mike Angelo (Where's Grady? https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/e...1/16/1f609.png;) ) Missed Ward Gappa and Toby (but saw their cars). Met up with Andrew Distad, too! As a surprise, Ike Ricchio felt well enough to come out for a while with his wife Judy, too! Enjoy the pics! In this first group...Glenn Benthin and Dave Gilsmer. So cool to catch up with old friends! The second pic is John Ward's daughter Kellie-who was out raising money for her son's outrageous medical bills. John is also battling cancer (just got done with chemo) and his cancer is in remission. They are a great family. Then we have a one of none(?) Grand Prix, a nice R/T Challenger, A cool Split window Corvette and a 1957 (?) Lincoln |

Hi Phil, hope to see you next weekend? Weather turned nasty later last night and it rained all night!! |

Wish I would have know it was you...I would have stopped and talked. I love 1970 Formula 400's! Yours looks great and your dad's GTO sounded good, too!:drool: I'd love to go for a ride in your Formula some day :) |

Bruce, I plan to be in Phoenix for most of next week. Hope to see you at one of the venues. Phil |

Haven't had it at the Pavs in a while, usually drive the Z. When I was told BJ was also Pontiac night I switched gears. Dad's car is 571 ci and 724hp/760tq still working out the bugs on that one but the old fart is having fun with it. |
Wow...your Formula gets with the program. 13.10's through the mufflers...
Why don't we get together sometime after the auctions..and I can shoot some more pics and we can do a members ride on it? We could include some in car video (with you driving) :) My brothers first car when I was 14 was a 70 1/2 Formula 400 like yours...but his was Castillian Bronze and didn't have ram air. That car surprised a LOT of cars on Whittier Blvd back in the day...LOL Thanks for bringing it out to Pavilions...and your dad, too...with his GTO. His car sounded great!! :beers: |

Larry, let me know when you are available....and we can come up your way. It will be neat to do this members ride!:headbang: Weekends work best for us |
That sounds good Bruce. I agree weekends are probably better for everyone. I asked everyone here and as far as I know I'll be around all of next weekend and don't have any plans for the one after either. So what ever works best, if you really want to make the trek up here, I'm open. Could also meet somewhere if that makes things easier.
