    I thought that place looked familiar. Is that the cruise put on by the Imperial Car Club?

    Thats around where I live. I did not know about that show but that is close to where I live. You will have to come to the Imperial car club show one evening its just a 1/2 mile up the street from where you where there.

    Hey, I have stayed at the Comfort Inn in Arnold a couple times on various trips. Never saw any cruises while I was there. I'll have to get some phone#'s so next time I'm there I can meet up with some folks (if I can talk the wife into it :p)

    Hey 74MAV, do you work in the area? Someone told me they saw an orange maverick parked at some fast food joint there a lot, thought it could be you.

    Some years back when it was a daily driver I worked at a store down the street from where you were at. There is only one other truly orange Maverick I know in the St. Louis area and he lives out toward St. Ann and is set up as a race car. He does come down to the Arnold show maybe once a year. My car always comes through Arnold though so it is known and seen around so not sure who they are seeing if it isn't me?:huh:

    Oh 2 years back I seen an orange original Comet at the All Ford Show but that was owned by an older man who did not drive it often.

    Sometimes I wonder if my girlfriend isn't more cautious around my Mavericks than me.
