If this does work Valk, we're going to put you in touch with that other President to resolve the debt crisis.

Minor Agenda Change........
We felt that Scott's presentation on Saturday was so important to the group that we changed the venue from the restaurant to a conference room at the Marriott. Accordingly, Saturday's revised agenda now looks like:
SATURDAY:
8:30 A.M. Depart for display area, which is the same location as last year (13 Mile west of Woodward) and will again be shared with the Prowler group. Be sure to get a parking pass from me Fri or Sat a.m. - No one will be allowed into the display area without a pass. No exceptions.
9:00 a.m - 6:00 p.m. Enjoy the Cruise, lunch on your own.
6:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. Dinner at Brady's Tavern 13 Mile & Southfield (approx 1.5 miles from display area) Welcome to Brady's. We have the entire back room and group parking in a lot adjacent to and north of the tavern. After dinner, cruise Woodward one last time (it closes at 9) and back to the hotel.
9:00 - 9:45 p.m. Courtyard Marriott. Crossfire Program Manager, Scott Wilkins, will address the group here. His presentation includes early design sketches of the Crossfire, why/how it was changed for production, the SRT plan and other key facts during the 5 year run at the Karmann plant. You will have ample time for Q & A.

I have a couple of cabin air filters still availalbe if anyone wants one. These are MB OEM charcoal filters still in the factory boxes. They are $21 apiece (that was my cost, I'm making zero profit on these).
I'm holding 2 for Gump, 1 for Valk and 1 for Boiler, so 2 are left. I'll have 'em in my trunk at the Cruise.
Judi - I'll bring your 303 from last year also.

Sorry for the late notice, but I was getting things ready for the cruise and realized the canopy I have that fits in the crossfire has a bent leg, not allowing it to collapse all the way. Needless to say, it will not fit and I do not have time to fix it. Just wanted to give a heads up in case someone else had one available....
Can I pay with Leinenkugal?

One more idea before I leave for the Gilmore Museum. I'll like to do a Red, White and Blue XF Coupe photo shoot for this year calendar on Saturday. Either at the parking area or restaurant. I'm sure I can talk James1549 into it but we'll need an Aero Blue coupe....Anyone?....Too bad my buddy SennaSpirit Dave cancelled
