Aww I see, as you can tell from the picture of the pinto there is a KIA suv in the background, my moms and she hasnt had a lick of trouble with it.

No that black FB you see next to the pinto is my Turbo FB its a 84 GSL-SE with an s5 TII swapped in.

This is my 83 Limited Edition

that LE looks amazing. i had one but it had been messed with too much. it had an awful black paint job that was applied over rust, the list goes on. too demanding for me at the time.

I know this is a late reply, but I probably wouldn't drive my car all the way to Terrell. My suspension is ******* old, and I don't have replacements. lol Everything else on the car is fine, though...just...that goddamn suspension. lol

Still plan on goin'. Thanks to nerdet I gots myself a map so I can find the place. I hardly ever go to dallas so this should be interesting. If you still wanna meet, let me know. I'll check back here before I head out sometime around 530-6(wanna give myself plenty of time to get lost.) MattG, I'll have your rotor with me as well. See you guys saturday.

We look forward to seeing you guys - one thing the map probably won't show you - once you cross 35E, the road is 6 lanes wide, and the 3 on the right end up on the tollway so be careful of that - I can't remember if MacArthur exit is right before or right after those 3 split off to the tollway, but if I remember right, the exit's almost under a bridge. Then you'll make a quick U turn and turn in between the Cheddars and the McDonalds, and SOMEONE should be there. They say it's AT Cheddars, but it's actually more behind the McDonald's there. And I don't know if she told you the running gag - they say it's at 7:30pm, but most of the people will be there by 8pm.
