Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
On his last full day in Ft Worth he found the right Stetson! We also went and had a cold beer in the White Elephant Saloon, and went to the CTC auto ranch classic car “yank yard”. Another great day!

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Oh the many stories told, laughs had & memories made with new friends the last few days! Such an honor for us & GMan69 to show Gerhard our part of the USA here in Mississippi. (I’ll let him post pics of his choice)

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Gerhard, as I said yesterday, I envy you! It was a great honor to meet you and play a small part in making your American adventure memorable. I wish safe travels for the rest of your journey.
Auf Wiedersehen, bis zum nachsten Mal. 'Merica!!

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
As you know we found out that Lesli is not a man ,nevertheless a great chevy enthusiast and a wonderful woman.
Mississipi can be really dark, my arrival was after sunset and I was thinking that I would not know what to do if I would see a serial killer in this area of darkness & nothing. Found out that even the police number was unknown. Fortunately I could remember on a plate from Brian: " We don't call 911!" Have a look on the cool blazer.

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
But was not even Lesli, but also her wonderful family Randy and Seth. Randy is even more Chevy fanatic :-)!
Seth sponsors me a private Heavy Metal concert. He plays in my opinion better guitar than some international stars.

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Such a wonderful work (nearly german quality )
From a 4 door wagon to 2 door. Everything is done with so much enthusiasm. I'm still flashed. And I was nervous as he was going to 5000 rpm. Than he told me the car is designed for 7500 and he shows me. Slippering rear tires, riding on a rocket and everything under the hood of the original 55. Eric! your old truck is still the number 1 in my personal truck category ( I saw a lot of events) but in overall category Randys 55 climbed to no 1. I'm still flushed and try to tread the impressions. ( only possible with a lot of IPA)

Re: Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts.
Than as you can read at the forum an additional Chevy Enthusiast was arriving (Gman69), I was believing a nabour from the next town, but see from where he was coming. Brought Oktoberfestbeer and meat and is the perfect gentleman. His name is GEORGE , retired and a former trucker. I'm so glad that I I met him. Lady, Gentlemen the honor is with me ( hopefully you get what I tried to send).
