I wish I would have gone up to look at that. De Tomaso Mangusta! One of my most favorite cars!

1965 Playmate of the Year Sunbeam Tiger was at the show. Playmate was not there but the current owner was. T

Folks - lets start thinking about a big shark weekend for this next year. Who might be in? We can start organizing now. It is always the third weekend in July for planning purposes. I'm thinking a one off thing, since we have the regular gtg's at Hershey, Frenzy, Hell, SITM, etc. Let's do this once and big, and see what happens? Should I start a separate thread?

Hey, a roadtrip would be cool with multiple 928s. I know there are a handful of folks with 928s in our area. It'd be great if we could get a fleet of them to go across the country! I know Jim C and his wife drove theirs from Friday Harbor to Dallas one year. So maybe they would be on board for the full Monty!

What part of Seattle are you located? Where around Pittsburgh did you live? I'm from the South Hills..Bethel Park.

Eastlake & Guemes Island... Brentwood growing up. Jim C and Sue drove right by Pittsburgh (well, sorta) on their way to the Porsche Parade this year. Keep an eye on the PacNW Yahoo board for local PNW events.

Wow, didn't realize how much Jim and Sue travelled with their 928. That's great.

Do you have a link for that yahoo board? I couldn't find it searching. The only local Porsche event calendar I've been able to find is the one on the PCA PNW region's web site.

Ed: [From post 20 ]What kind of Capt. Video thing is going on with your tail lights? For a minute I thought you lost your mind and altered Blue Max, then later [post 26]I saw a pic of the car ready for the show w/o the futuristic covers.

He used special "BluMaxx Tape" on his lights when he detailed it.

yup, painter's tape, also known as the "e-man bra" (Eric at Frenzy - covered his entire car in it for the drive!)
