Must run in cycles. Same thing happened over at Region 7. Enthusiam jumps up, then goes and hides. It'll show again I hope.

mostly I think it was what is referred too as W-I-N-T-E-R :lol:

while certainly Florida winters arent anything compared to say - Michigan -or someplace like that, nevertheless, we all kind of tend to pack it in a little, put the car in the garage, and maybe work on it some, and get ready to dust if off for Spring...

things will pick up soon....

"Shows open up" There are so many shows and cruise nights in the Tampa, Sarasota, Clearwater, Saint Petersburg and areas to the north of Clearwater that one can go to something every day but Monday.
The most active is Tuesday 4:30 To 8:30 At "Clinks Street Bar & Grill" in Pinellas Park (look up in Cruise News under Weekly Tuesday night) it is an open show. All charity average has been 60+ cars every week the last 6 weeks with a high of 66. Big $400.00 jackpot every week and much more.
AND THE THING IS 3 TO 5 ELKY'S MOST WEEKS FOR SURE 3 ARE MEMBERS.

Been working on the Diablo up here in NW Florida. Just finished it up tonight. I am giving myself a HUGE pat on the back. It looks GREAT! Not a 20 footer anymore. Maybe more like 15. :oops:

Shows start kicking in up here soon.

Nah, Jax is more NE. NW being Pensacola--Fort Walton Beach area. Actually in a few weeks is a big (dare I say it?) Mustang show in P-Cola. I for one am a person who can appreciate all cars that become a labor of love for someone. I'm looking forward to it. I've missed out on that show for the last 17-20 years or so.

Last night I just finished finally buffing out my paint all the way after having painted the Diablo a year ago. About to take it out for the first run. Pretty excited as I have worked hard on this truck. Not a perfect looker but it's nice enough to be proud of and raises questions/conversations where ever I go. Kinda sucks as it's foggy here this morning. I even took the day off work for this. :-P

I enjoyed see Ya'll at the Turkey Run and was wanting to come to the Spring Show too. I doub't thought that I'll have mine fixed from my crash in time.
