As we know, Dennis is building a Z-11 tribute of the New York Shaker car. Dennis admits he is too late in the Z-11"s so he is talking to anyone that can help him. Good idea!!!!
So several of us keep getting Dennis' phone calls. About 4 weeks ago, he was telling me he has been talking a lot to Russ and Pat. On this particular call, he said he hadn't met either one which I knew. I said I could cure that!!! Figured out a plan for Dennis and it went like this: fly to Kansas City. I will pick you up at the airport and take you to Springfield, we'll spend 2 nights and one whole day with Russ, we'll throw Russ in the back seat and drive to McKinney and spend 2 nights and one whole day with Pat, then I'll take you out to central Texas and introduce to to Hayden and then I'll bring you back to KC. That's when I think his brain vapor locked!!
So the fly-in date was Tuesday, Oct.2. I had my friend Bob drive in from Indianapolis kinda to act as moderator!! Picked Dennis up at 11:34AM and off we went.. Russ collects lots of stuff.....I thought Dennis was going to hyperventilate when we got there!!! Lots of stories filled the evening. On Wed., we got to go to the shop that was painting and finishing the Jackshaw Z-11. Note to self: post pictures here !!!
