    They have a website. Perhaps Dennis knows the site, or do google search.

    Chip and his bunch do some really neat stuff. Its pretty much a one man operation as far as the running the club and his news letter. His group was the first I saw that filled in the grill on the cowl. Looks really sharp. I also first saw the shelby tail light panel grafted to the Maverick down with his bunch. The lights look great on a stock Mav but really look complete with the panel. His news letter is mostly projects he is working on. Its full color but the ink causes the pages to stick together and bleed through. I think he tried something different with this last issue cause its definately improved in that department. Mostly a FL based group, they are a great bunch of people to mingle with.

    I am thinking about smoothing out the cowl on mine as well. Do you have any pics of the car you saw. If so Thanks in advance. I am also smoothing out the side marker lights so any pics there to would be apprecviated. I just never liked the way they look on mavs/comets but thats just my opinion.
