Since this thread has turned into "What have you done lately with Frank Pikul?"....here's a few pics from today's send off. After 3.5 years of "temporary" work in Temple, Texas, Frankie is heading back to St. Louis. We had a goodbye lunch today and I drove the '67 Heritage down from Fort Worth to Temple. Met Frank, Chris Crawford, Chris Callan, Fred Smith, and Mike McKay along with some of Frankie's work folks. Drove the red machine 275 miles today. Crossed over 1000 miles on the odo. Stopped and took some pics in a Texas ghost town.

It was a fun day. As usual the GTs attracted plenty of spectators. We will miss Frank and I know he will miss the BBQ at the Salt Lick.

Dr. Frank has been forever ban from every Tint World in North America! Extra cleanup and desanitation was done on Mikes GT before the clear wrap was installed!

Man I was hoping this pic wouldn't find its way here.:facepalm: However, as I have told Doc, I never take the first shot. But when shot at I will relentlessly fire back.:biggrin Sleep well Dr. Pikul.

You're lucky both both Frank and Blake weren't naked in your Heritage at the same time!

I dropped in on a Porsche Club "Cars and Coffee" gathering today in Dallas. I planned to park on the periphery and then visit with my Porsche friends. They insisted that I park up front and center! Much respect for the FGT.

Happy Anniversary To Our Girl! One year ago today and at this hour our Girl was delivered to my Building by Bernardo and it was a day we won’t ever forget! Our grandsons were staying with us and Sue was taking them to vacation bible school and brought them to the delivery so they could share in our excitement! Today there here again celebrating our fun event. Our Girl has 1,555.7 miles on her shines even more with her clear wrap. Way too hot to take her for a spin but Sue and I and the boys are just sitting and talking about her and enjoying her presence. I talked to my Concierge Megan Willis this morning and she wished me the best and assured me the Concierges were taking good care of my Ford GT Forum Friends with their orders and delivery’s. I’m so excited by the recent deliveries as well as the recent order for the GT and soon there will be Ford GT’s throughout the States for all to enjoy. I’m still working hard on my commitment to be a good Ambassador of the Ford Motor Company, The Ford GT Forum and the New Ford GT. My Girl just ended a very fast trip around the Sun and is looking toward many more! Well do a little champagne tonight! We are Blessed and very appreciative!

My 11 year old Grandson Erykson just produced and posted a new YouTube video of “My Girls first year anniversary “ which I think is very good for those interested its 7 minutes long and shows why I own this fantastic Piece Of Art and want to share with all! Check It Out. I’m working very hard at my Ambassador responsibilities! Enjoy

A couple of pictures from two separate photo shoots last week. Top pic was at sunset.
The bottom pic will be featured in a 2019 collector car calendar.

I hope it wasn't blazing hot when you did the runs.

Today I posted a couple of YouTube videos 1. My Girl gets wrapped at Tint World to show just how detailed the wrap process is when done perfectly.
