A Cool Wind Blowin'...

We are all too aware that the "car" season is coming to a close. Except for Shapleigh (ME) and HomeTown Mobil (ME), I know of no other cruises for 2007. And we only see a few shows left - we will be going to four more this year: Metalworks (Auburn ME), Dover (Foster's Daily Democrat, Dover NH), Shaw's Ridge (Sanford ME) and Stratham Hill (Stratham NH). There are a few others, and for those who attend them, we would appreciate pics and stories if you please :o)

In our EVENTS section, we have posted a show in Burlington, MA - we do not normally include shows outside northern New England, but we felt this was for a good cause - and it comes at a time when there are so few other events to attend. It is their first year, and they really need to make this a success if it is to become an annual event.

As many of you already know, Robin, Criss and I are planning to "build" another PT Cruiser - this one to be a custom panel truck. Today we got off to a good start - we purchased an '04 Platinum Series Turbo PT as the base car. Now the work begins...we hope to be finished by next August, but that may be tough, as there is much work and no small amount of $$$ involved. But when it is finished, look out Special Interest (^.^)

Meanwhile, if you know anyone else with a PT that needs any parts, it seems that we are building up quite an inventory of spare parts, including tires/wheels, grills, etc. Have 'em get in touch - they will go cheap, as I am running out of room (we only have 14 acres :o)

For those of you who may be interested, I am trying that new 3-stage special chrome "paint", to see if it actually looks like chrome. I'll post the results here, and will try to include pix.

Oh, and don't forget to check out the HotKarz classifieds (or add to them).

See y'all at the shows!
