Pretty nice car. The lights under the dash appear to be broken and will need to be fixed. The bumper fillers look better than mine and some day I will redo them. When I did mine a couple of years ago I was surprised how much the front bumper weighed. It took 3 of us to put it back together. Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Thats a Sapphire Blue Firemist. Really a nice color. Only of 88's and 89's Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

I understand the business side of the shows but it seems to me that the prices are very high. If an item was worth a lot of money why wouldnt the owner just sell the item themselves. Put it in a auction and make as much money as possible. The shows are interesting to watch. History has a few shows I think is a waste of time. Swamp people and Ice Road Truckers are really boring. I would like to meet the guy who would take a tractor rig on thin ice in the first place. Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Correct me if Im wrong, but I thought the 89 was the first year that remote key fobs were available. This car has them on an 88? Thanks Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Roberta thats pretty darn cool. Now everybody will want your autograph. Really nice video piece. Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

If yo just air up the front left, it would look like my wifes daily driver when I first met her. She told me she could park it anywhere HMMMM Chuck Kerls

I still have tires on my Riviera that date code to 1990, 22 years ago. I plan to replace them next winter. Dont drive it much so no big hurry. I think the National safety board says 6 years look for new tires.

BJM I am glad you are thinking about running for the BCA, I am also thinking about making another run. The hard part of running is winning. There are people in the BCA and any club that are always looking to take a cheap shot from the get go. How easy is it for a member of the BOD to be compaired to a dead tuna. That my friend is a very cheap shot. Thats what I would like to see changed. I have not talked to many rational people that want to BRING THINGS TO A BOIL. I would think that we could conduct ourselves as professionals that we are supposed to be I will not make any more comments on this subject Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net 316-655-1099

Hey if you found $20.00 folded bill they must be mine I lost 3 at the casino the other day. Did they have "Wheres George" stamped on them, Just put them in the mail.....And I dont want the condoms Thanks lol Chuck Kerls

Well now, I sat in the last directors meeting and I cant remember seeing a lot of members in the room. I know one thing for sure, there should be someone from Mars Pa. and someone from Madrid Iowa on the ballot for BCA Director next April. If you get elected then you can cast stones in person. Maybe its not a dead tuna you are smelling. It is clear that criticism is the easiest part of your day I am proud of the folks that standup and run for office, Its not easy and a lot of stones need to be dodged in a year but if you dont contibute something, they why do you bother with with your posts. Like the bumper sticker used to say " Mean People Suck Sorry for my post Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net 316-655-1099:mad:

Big loss and a good guy. Always ready to help any member with questions. He will be missed. RIP friend Chuck Kerls

Sean what a nice thing to do. You made her day. Old cars bring back old memories. Glad to see you guys got the Reattas out. Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Mine seems to shift a bit early from 1st to second. It dont seem to have much of an impact on the trany but its just not right. Will changing the fluid help that? I have never changed it and it has 65,000 miles Never gave it a lot of thought Chuck Kerls boodreatta@cox.net

Yep Lamar the 60,s and 70,s were a great time to be alive. I still have a bunch of old 8 tracks and in fact I still have some 4 tracks. About the horn, yep I still have one in the Riviera. Best part is I still use it when someone walks in front of the car and I want to see them jump. The kids love it. Ahh to be young again. Thanks for the memories Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Well one thing is for sure we are a throw away bunch. I know there a lot of older buildings on the east coast but as you go west it seems that a lot of them are cast offs. I dont think there are many buildings of any kind that are older than 100 years in Kansas. A lot of them here are not made to last over 25 years or so. There were some old Buick dealerships in the Bugle last year, most of them are something else now. Americans are not very interested in history and thats one reason that stuff gets torn down. Its really too bad in a way Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Oh my I wish I could go, just too darn many irons in the fire. While you are in St.Louis dont forget the zoo. Its world class. Talk about Naked, check out the baboons. And then theres Grants farm. Lots to do in SL. Have fun Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Ok here is the latest on the car in KC. Ed said he thought the car was owned by a young woman and she was not trying to run a scam. Well Ed was correct. She was young and made a mistake on mileage. I had the car checked out and it turned out to be a very nide car. The true mileage is 79,000 and the car runs like a new one. I have been looking for a daily driver so I just purchased it. Sometimes it pays to be open minded. This is a great car, I have seen cars in worse shape on show fields at National meets. I will plan to keep this car for a daily driver. Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

also the Pontiac Fiero might be a GT but cant tell form the photos. Dont see many of these anymore Chuck Kerls Booreatta@cox.net

Well moving right along, first I am glad you were not hurt and I agree with Wildcat 465. WHATS NEXT. I would appear that you have created quite a BUZZ on the fourm already. Stay safe in them junkin yards Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Just got an email from a friend on HOW HOT IS IT 1 seat belts make pretty good branding irons 2 it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car 3 potatoes cook underground, all you have to do is pull one out and add butter 4 cows are giving evaporated milk 5 In Kansas the Baptists are starting to baptize by sprinkling, the Methodists are using wet-wipes, the Presbyterians are giving rain checks and the Catholics are praying for the wine to turn back to water Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

and darn it. It is missing the Disney driver or it would be worth a lot more. Wonder who the Disney driver was Mickey or Goofy. I now have put it on my bucket list complete with the driver MMMMMM Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

I just thought that it was hot out at the track at the National meet in NC, but today just for kicks I took my digital thermo out to the parking lot (blacktop) and the readout pegged 132. Can asphalt turn liquid. The chickens here are being fed crushed ice to keep them from laying hard boiled eggs and the trees are whistling for dogs. It cant last forever Hot in Kansas Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Its really good to hear something good out of the middle east. Thank your son for all the hard work and duty. We are so lucky to have our service men and women keeping us safe. Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net

Robert I read your article in the Bugle and thought it was very good. Looks like Pete has made the right choice. You might want to put some background information in a post here on the forum, like more information on what you do and some other personal stuff that the guys here get to know you. Pete says really good things about your writing. You have already heard from two of the best guys on the forum group, Mike and Lamar. Good job and good luck Chuck Kerls booreatta@cox.net
