    Yes, I believe that was the one haha. Man, that thing looked hit...

    I did not see that TC. Saw a silver or grey box '89 TC with the carriage roof and wire wheels. The few TC's we did see reminded Ashley that she wants another one. I think she secretly regrets selling hers despite the carriage roof..

      Easy now, the guy might be joining us here...not to mention I've seen far worse.

      Silver or grey...the car I saw was like a gunmetal blue and could pass for somewhere in the grey spectrum. Given the relative rarity of the carriage roof we're probably talking about the same car.

        Honest opinion is all, wouldn't want anyone to BS or sugarcoat anything for me. We might be picking up a truck that is worse than that car. It is what it is, we're still excited about it. Haven't heard back from John about it though.

        Oh perhaps. Saw it when the sky was overcast. Did you drive your car through the cruise?

          I'm sure The Ice Car is worse in the appearance department (edit: if not, no need to continue that rabbit trail), and sounds like it may be the color of this TC you guys are describing: Crystal Blue Metallic. When I first got The Ice Car I had no idea what the color was. It looked silver in some light, and I could see a hint blue in other light. So I had to look up the paint code to figure it out.

                    It is very, very wet out. "Bla" is an understatement. Grilling seems not to really be practical, unless it is not wet in Warren (but I'll bet it is).

                    I'm still in if anyone else is (and to make the 11:00-ish time I'll have to leave in about a half hour). This is all largely hinged on Nick due to his presence from significantly out of town, of course.

                        That works.
                        I may be a bit later than 11 on the nose, but I'll be there.

                          We're in. Soon to be enroute. Good thing I did not wash or detail the TC. Food getting place sounds idyllic.

                            It turned into a nice day once the rain stopped.

                            I got a few cellphone pics, here's a link to my album and a shot of all the cars (minus Will's Mustang since he had to leave for Grand Rapids).

                                Had a really good time, great folk....glad to put faces to names. Like everyone's rides. We saw MAGNUMs. And they were not Dodge.
