Howdy gang,

With the new year right around the corner, its time to start planning the 2004 Skyline Drive Cruise.

We (Mike Furtaw and John Tighe) will be heading this up from here on out. (Don't worry gang, Ken and I have already talked about this, and he gives me a thumbs up to do it.)

So what I want to know is:

What season and Month?

Do you ONLY want F-bodies (all years from 67 to 2002 damn that just sucks saying that! lol) do we want to invite the new Muscle car owners the GTO guys??? That might be a fun thing too.

I know the Vette guys are having one on April 24 of 2004 and I already got the go ahead to join them. But a few people I have already spoken too thought we might be better off doing it on our own for now and then maybe doing it with the Vette guys later.

Thoughts and concerns???

Doug

Would like to attend. Any week end in May except the 14th to 16th is OK. That's when my son is graduating from law school.

I know just what we need, one more lawyer. Think of it this way, I will have my own personal lawyer to handle my speeding tickets.
