Let's firm up the location soon.I am down for whatever. If we are going to grill let me know, got a good source for steaks... will bring some for all. I second the paranoia of dings and dents.
I'm willing to chip in for food. Or if we want to wait till the day of we could possibly have a couple of us pick up stuff during the meet.Vic

Word, there are benches under trees for shade. I like the idea of cruising enmasse to somewhere. We could even cruise Woodward or something and "race" our lopos. I did not have enough motivation to wash, wax & detail my car this past Sunday. Maybe Friday. We'll see.1985 LTD Crown Victoria - SOLD

In agreement with all of the above...Halmich Park it is, 'round 11ish, to hang out for a while before exploring food options. It'd be nice if timing can accommodate Chris with the 89 who is working until 2:45PM and figures 30 mins travel time, but I suppose as long as someone can keep him updated it's OK. I won't have data unless there's wifi or someone can turn a hotspot on from their phone.
A cruise including potentially Woodward (the nice hilly stretch from around Big Beaver to around Square Lake) would be cool, especially if any member is attending in a non-Panther vehicle (so won't feel left out) and will be able to maybe grab some pics from the median. It's a photogenic area.

So far I think we have roughly 10-12 people coming.
I am also hoping to get some cleaning done on Friday. I badly need to vacuum and get some interior cleaning done. Exterior I did a week or two ago, so I won't need to spend too much time there.Vic

Dunno if I've said it here yet, and I'm too lazy to go back a few pages to see, but I'm about 95% sure I'll be there. Just gotta find time to vacuum out the car and dust the dash. It looks presentable as is but if I had my way I'd hit it with wax before then but again, time. If Nick brings his Town Car, I won't have the newest Panther or the only whale this year maybe.-Steve

Yes, I vouched for your probable-attendance earlier on
I shined my car up fairly decently for the Dream Cruise, so the "hard work" is done...like Bleche-Wite bringing my whitewalls back to life...
However on Friday, arriving home quite late after dark, my car will be all over some dirt roads so it will likely not be properly clean unless the morning affords enough time for a quick wash.

Steve! I don't recall you commenting in this thread yet. I think there will be 3 cars newer than yours.
That brings the count up to 11-13.
4 whales, 1 5.0 fox (unless he doesn't get the coolant leak identified fixed), 1 barge, 4-6 boxes, and I'm not sure if Ashley is bringing something separate or riding with Derek.
No aeros that I'm aware of, although my box is newer than the oldest aeros, and Will's fox is aero age.Vic

I have a "maybe" from 3 local guys who aren't very active on any of the forums.-Steve

Originally posted by kishyWoodward Dream Cruise. Attended Friday night in buddy's Suzuki Alto Works, which he later swapped out with his buddy's C6 Z06 (a truly remarkable machine). Attended again today in Townie, washed and with shiny clean white walls, in convoy with the Alto Works again. Good couple days.

Saw a blue box TC earlier in the day getting gas down closer to the Royal Oak end. Didn't catch the parking light lenses so couldn't tell 89 or not. I think it had a carriage roof?
