Some of the 02s

Note: Never did tell you where we started from on this trip. We're from the southwest - DFW area or Dallas/Ft. Worth, TEXAS if you don't recognize the initials. The odometer reading was 31349 the morning we left the Ft. Worth area. Our odometer has a 10% error factor so must add 10% more miles to the total shown on the odometer. I'll go thru this again on the last page in the series when I give the total driven miles on the trip.
.
After arrival, we were "spotted" on the show field, i.e., given our designated spot to display our car. I don't know if it was coincidence or not, but the two cars behind ours were also "willow green". The blue 57 in the background is Patrick's - on the day of the concours.
The rest of the time he drove his 02 black .
Then I went about my business - tracking the 02's that came in. When the owners were around, I'd get their picture. Below are 10 more out of the 22 that showed up in the first four days of the show.


Allan & Jane Brier from Massachusetts	Lucille & Ken Harvey from New Jersey	David Trucksess from Minnesota	Gary Blake from New Jersey

Bob Walker's from North Carolina	Sal Parisi from New Jersey	Zambon from Illinois Has had car since Aug. 7 2001; built in June	Jay Favia from New Jersey with his Neiman Marcus

	Bob & Phyllis Leach's - driven all the way from Washington State	Ford's New York Region display car

This is how quite a few of the 55-57 Thunderbirds arrive at a show like this. The area our car was parked in though was for driven cars. Some were driven from as far as California, Oregon & Washington
