    Great to have some more mavs/comets around my area. Altleast driving. I reside just north of you. Well, Northwest. Just above Boise. We need to get the oregon, washington, idaho and near by states together for a meet say Boise or Salt Lake. Boise sounds better to me since there is a lack of saltly air and my car don't need more rust.

    Nice car

    Not to get off the subject of what a beauty Darwin’s heroes car is but Boise does sound attainable for a Mavrick/Comet meet in the spring or summer because not all of us have A/C.

    Very nice car! Welcome to the board! It's certainly refreshing to see a 14 year old on the internet that can spell and use punctuation.

    Keep us updated with your progress!
