Congrats!! I'm glad to see the car is finally ready as I'm sure your anticipation has grown short.

It sure is a beaut!

Edward & Terry,

You both will be our honored guests. I'm all for a Saturday meet, then we can have a choice to stay over-night if we so choose.

Steve, please just pick a date. Thanks.

Jason,

That **** is ANOTHER radar detector. I guess the previous owner was a bit paranoid.

Arrwin,

Its pronounced "roof". As in: "The trucking company dropped a tow hook on the roof of the ruf".

All,

Thanks for the great, positive comments. I'm sure some of you remember how I felt like such an idiot for selling Waldo and buying Rufus, when Waldo was clearly in nicer shape. Whew. I feel OK now. A few more little details to attend to. So... yellow calipers with Ruf logos? What do you think?

CP, Terry, Tony, Edward, anyone,

Nov 12 it is! Clam chowder in Morro Bay. Sounds great! I can't wait.

Steve,

Maybe I can get Romeo "Phatbut" to join us for one last ride for him as he is going to be selling his pristine 98 Arctic Silver C2S this year..... Hopefully she will stay in the RL community.

Everyone is welcome to join us on 11/12/05 at Morro Bay for a bowl of clam chowder... just don't be expecting any major organizational effort from either CP or myself.

John, Morro Bay is on Hiway 1 just north west of San Luis Obispo. You can drive down hiway 1 (if you have LOTS of time, or drive a GT3), or you can shoot down the 101, and cut over to the 1 near Paso Robles. The North Cal guys know more about the route than us poor boys.

Do you have time on Sunday 11-13-05? If you can make it, I'll gladly stay overnight and meet up with you on Sunday.
