Default Spring/Summer Gathering..old timers :D

I'm in the thought process now of trying to get a huge Fbody gathering of all the old fbody crowd from the late 90's -early 2000's. The ones I met when I got into these cars back then. There were alot of SLP board people and fbody.com and the now defunct MAFBA. These people mainly dropped off the face of the planet and I'd like to get everyone together again. It's sad to remember how it used to be back then as to compared to now. Its just not been the same since they quit making the fbody.

I certainly would like the newer people to attend too by all means but I definately am going to try hard to get my old friends back!

Any thoughts? Any interests?

Does the F-Body Message Board still have their gathering? I've been down to Memphis for that a number of times. Good memories!

There are not many old-timers left on Fbody.com--maybe 20-30 of them.
You're going to have a tough time tracking the people you met through that forum.
However, give it a try. Contact Jim Hogan, he might have a few e-mail addresses to toss your way.

Snuffles- I doubt there are even that many!
I'm pretty sure we have had a thread over there recently trying to figure out which "old timers" are still there... might be able to pull that up and find some of the ones that you want to get in touch with.

My '93 went up in flames in '98. Last I heard, the body was sitting behind a barn in VT. I parted out the '98 a few years ago. Not sure what happened to that.
