Joey, BOBBALA!

We need to expand the barn and you got space! I see an expansion on the museum forthcoming!

Looks like a great time was had by all. I'm sure Pete brought some cars and SOMELEE's blacked FGT look like the frigging batmobile.....:cheers

What a day.

Joey did a great job hosting. My wife and I had a wonderful day cruising Long Island with everyone.

We are lucky to have Rich and Denis helping us with our cars.

Thanks again to Joey.

Mitch:cheers

I second that. Joey and Ellen were extremely generous in hosting this gathering. It was great meeting all the North Eastern group, especially Joey & his family, thanks for a very memorable day, the camera crew, assorted friends, and of course always good hanging out with Rich and Denis. (thanks for the box o' goodies)

Pete S.

total of 825 miles yesterday; enjoyed every minute, except for the bridge onto the island . . .

Let me add my thanks to GTJoey, not only for his hospitality on Thursday when I dropped in to visit, but also for getting the "Guys" to Long Island (or as we call it, greater New Jersey). A few of us north Jersey owners got the "Guys" to stop here on their way home and I want to add my name to their growing list of satisfied customers. Rich and Dennis are patient, talented professionals and we're lucky to have them as a resource. They add value to our GT's.

Joey:

Thank you for a great event, glad it will be the first of many.

It was even worth traversing the Cross-Bronx expressway twice to have Dennis and Rich attend to the car once again.

If you want to venture out to Jersey there is a big Ford meet at Englishtown Nov 3-4, drag racing and car show.

Joey ...... BOOBBALA! Thank you It was an absolute pleasure to meet you Friday. Fun times
Having had the pleasure of seeing the GTGuys work on my GT, I found them to be competent, talented, capable, skilled, very well-prepared proficient consummate professionals who work together synergistically. Their work is impeccable and Rich and Dennis were always very cordial, affable and polite. Thank you Guys ( As you can tell ...I'm pleased )

Thanks to the very generous and hospitable forum members who opened their home to us. Again Thanks Joey …..and Thank you Preston. And the nuclear reactor is too cool.:thumbsup

Three cheers for GT Joey

Hey Joey, You da man... Though I did not have the time to get the guys on my GT, I did have a great time drifting in and out Thursday and Friday. Saturday was a real nice day and I hope everyone had a good time on our East end. Don and I played mother goose at the back of the pack keeping all the unruly Gt owners in line. And of course the day would not have been complete without the hottest GT out there... that of course would be Gino!
Just kidding Gino, Hopefully I will see you in NJ if I get back from sema on time.

Pete
