'59 Plymouth Forum

...just the promise that I will be at Carlisle next summer :D This we we bought the tickets and Matthew and I will be there if Dan is willing to make another road trip. But of course! The question is -- who else is coming with us in Faulkner? Andre? Stefan? Roger? Curt? Or, is Curt driving his own ...

Got this message just yesterday from Gary. Contact information for him is earlier in this thread -- see below for pictures. Hi Dan, We finally dug out the white 59 Sport Fury. It's a 361 Commando car with power windows. I was wondering if I could e-mail pics and post on the web site. It's a good bui...

LD, it's not Dick Kock that has that information -- it's Alex Lehr. He can tell you the contact info for the man who has the SF for sale. Alex's phone number is in my post -- I'll repost it here: (323) 666 - 7888.

Oh wait -- the button was there -- it's just hidden when your display is 1024x768. When I changed my display to 1280x1024 (font too small for this old man to read), the button appeared. So I'm not the only one who writes bad webcode!

It was made while Dan was driving it across the field but unfortunately the photographer clicked a little bit to early :( Which photographer was that, Ron? The one I ran over, or the one I backed into? :lol: Actually, I didn't see the "foto's" button on that link -- I had to strip down th...
