Re: Georgia/SC/TN Meet and Greet?
REALLY ENJOYED IT! 
Had a great time talking and looking at bumpsides in Elberton, Georgia today. Thanks to mjhaltom for putting this event together!
2 F-100s, both originally from Texas. My truck is on the left and mjhaltom's is on the right.
For those of you who were thinking about coming, you missed a great event. Hopefully we'll do something like this again someday soon!

Really sorry I couldn't make it Mark. Last minute company from FL messed up my plans. Hope you all had a good time and will try this again.

Re: Georgia/SC/TN Meet and Greet?
All my photos I took with my iPhone are too big and it is a PITA to shrink tim and post them. Great time had by me, Jack and all the locals. Only two trucks, but two locals couldn't come because of last minute breakdowns. Gonna try this again soon. TexasTruck72 has a great old original condition F100. I really enjoyed checking it out. I even got to drive it.

Re: Georgia/SC/TN Meet and Greet?
mjhaltom did a great job initiating this event. It was fun getting to drive his '71 F-100 too! It is one powerful truck. Here's some more of my pictures.
Nice steering wheel
Mark's 390 FE engine.

Re: Georgia/SC/TN Meet and Greet?
Guys,
Even if it was just the two of you, I think most here would miss the point. The feeling gotten when even just two bumps owners get to meet and ramble on about our love for these trucks is as they say "priceless"! I found that even sometime the smallest details about our trucks may sometimes never get posted here-yet some here know those details. Don't let it break the wind in your sails as I hope to maybe make the trip next year-brother that lives about an hour from there.
I know this about the MNG's because I've been blessed to have had two opportunities to do so, and hopefully another real soon.
What I really want to know, and one of ya'll needs to fess up...
What happened to all that slow cooked bar-b-cue?!

Also, a bit off topic - does anyone know of any good junkyards in the ATL area for F100's?
