Rick it looks like you and me at this time and we both share the same color dodge againts plymouth

When mine is finished, I will be participating in the Pure Stock Musclecar Races in the Midwest. I can't wait to thrash on it! I bought it in '99 in pieces and have never been able to drive it. If it's done for Carlisle, it WILL go down the dragstrip!

Hey Frank,
I just wanted to let you guys know I posted info on my Transamcuda.com site linking over to here incase anybody doesnt know what you guys are planning as well. It was nice talking to you today and Barry and I are looking forward to this show. I hope it turns out like we think its going to. This is going to be a one of a kind show. Lots of fiberglass in one spot!!!

Registration is now open for the A12 reunion on the Carlisle web site.Just a heads up .

How about "A12 Restoration Forum".

I just registered. Very easy to sign up and pay.

I used the club name of; Moparts.com A12 Restoration Forum

I figure we have to be a club. Aren't we?

On a different note. We should all enter asap to show the Carlisle staff we mean business. Frank has gone up and above, in his organizing efforts with Carlisle.

Kudos to Frank.

So, come little Buckaroos. Go sign up. It won't hurt. I promise

Gary,

I was up there but did not register because I thought we should all use the same club name.

Did we ever come up with a name? Or should we use "Moparts.com A12 Restoration Forum".

If we need a name now is the time, this will force us to decide

Thanks, Gary!

Just all in a day's work.


We need to keep the club name generic for all the guys that are not 'on-line' but who will be learning about the reunion via other media. We have this great forum, but really its just a medium by which we communicate.

Voting on a name is like picking out wallpaper with your.........um....significant other. Somebody's not going to like it.


I think 1969-1/2 SixPack/6BBL Club would define us ALL very well.

Frank

OK...I'll be my own club

Since I'm on a lot of medication from hangin' around here too much, I'll call it "Club Med".

I just registered and put Moparts.com A-12 reunion. They will figure it out.

Here's the latest on the Re-Union...

We've approached the publicity arena targeting a few selected magazines. Our thinking was we could present a better package, which would get us better publicity, by combining the A12 and T/A re-union camps. We talked with the T/A guys and they are in favor of forming this consolidated front of sorts to better garner the attention of those who buy ink by the barrel. (note: this doesn't mean we will be parking our A12 and T/A cars together in the same space - it only means we've formed a pre event 'union' of sorts to maximize our leverage).

So- we now have an agreement in principal with Rob Wolf, editor of Mopar's Collector's Guide, to give us COVER copy on the upcoming Carlisle re-unions....as well as some other good inside ink (Kudos to Gary for successfully carrying our message to Rob).

In exchange we (the A12 and T/A camps) would give MCG 'exclusives' regarding the planning of, and all happenings at, the actual event. 'Exclusives' simply mean we will talk to them first and offer them access (suggest who to contact) amongst all of you who bring your cars. (As for A12 cars, Rob sounded interested in the Edelbrock car, the Aloha Runner, 'Project Six Pack' and others. I'm sure the T/A guys have some to offer Rob as well).

For MCG we would also include their banners at our site, as well as time in our video/DVD-- which would basically be an interview with Rob/MCG regarding the role the magazine played in getting as many A12-T/A cars as possible to Carlisle.

The fit is perfect...MCG as a community based magazine, strives to help put lost parts with rightful owners, offers a variety of classified listings, and just plain caters to the 'little guy' in general...a true community oriented magazine which 'serves'...and this is a major service they would be providing.

We can only hope MCG embraces this role as 'proclamation newscaster' in an ALL OUT way. We want them to agressively target the reaching of A12 and T/A owners. If so, we're sure general awareness and respect for their efforts will increase-- reflecting positively on the magazine.

If the word gets out to enough owners-- this might be one of the biggest re-union meets of all time. Any magazine which holds inside track certainly stands to benefit.

Now again, nothing is etched in stone at this point. Situations could easily change overnight- but right now it all seems like 'a go'.

So-- if all goes as planned we'd like to utilize MCG to run a COVER story on the upcoming re-unions and include with that individual stories on the cars that will be attending. We'd also like them to keep a re-union update blurb (1/4 page? or something close) running in all issues from here on if possible.

Again- we believe this is a perfect fit for MCG. There's the main story-- which involves getting the word out to as many owners as possible-- and underneath that 'community headline' lurks several (100+?) very special individual car stories to pick from.

Keep in mind that magazines are right now finalizing and starting the copy for February and March issues. So we need to get into their pipeline quickly.

Assuming we can nail this down, we'll then go into direct mailing of car clubs and taking out ads in the old school publications (Hemmings, Chrysler Car Enthusiast etc etc).

If any of you have ideas on how to get the word out to those backweeds locations-- where many of these A12 car owners are 'unconnected', please suggest them now.

Right now this makeshift 'committee' (LOL) consists of only four members (Frank, Gary, Dave, myself). To be honest we are spread thin and could use some help. Next up is direct mailing and placing ads in old school publications. If you want to help please PM any of us as we'd love to have you!

Sorry for the long post.

Regards,
Coop
