I arrive 5:47pm on the 10th. If you are buying Reserve, or Bud for that matter, I would drink it with a Pinto revving in the background if I have to.
If this decanter had anything in it I would bring out to Reno. Cheers to you sir. I see a "brans & list" happening.

Ewe guys... I love ya....
Sometimes, I can forget why we all do this.. then I read something like this and it all comes back to me..
We "plane nuts" people do strange things don't we.. I still cherish the shirt I have that has a bit of motor oil from the Spruce Goose on it that I picked up on a private tour of the inside of the wings... When I got to stand under FiFi one time, I could not belive that I was wiping my finger in the oil of an actual B-29...
Used to cherish the moments sitting on the deadline at Reno when they'd roll the airplanes right over the top of us going in and out of the pits...
Yep... rev that pinto my friend! (are any of them old fords still runnin?)
Looking forward to getting to meet some of you guys at Reno this time.

Last year I was walking down the back hall of the dealership and heard the sound of radial engines very close. I ran outside to see FIFI herself had just buzzed the lot. Needless to say I was jumping up and down like an idiot. The only flying B-29 in the world and it come to see me. There was only one other person on the lot that knew what had just happened. At first I thought it was a B-17 'cuz I thought FIFI was still in restoration.
As far as Pinto's are concerned. I saw one about a month ago riding down the street. They are probably as rare as a B-29. If you want one Wayne I'm sure I can get you a good deal on one.
How about a Maverick? I got a neighbor that has one with the Sport package he'd probably sell....
Just give me a glass of scotch, a cigar, a lawn chair and a Mustang overhead (or Bearcat, or Corsair, or.....) and I'm in heaven.
I still have the shirt I wore when I got my mustang ride 20 years ago, never washed the oil off it I got helping wipe it down afterwards. I guess we are nuts.
At least you could get a V8 in a Maverick. There is something to said about a 302. Hey wait, why are we talking about old Fords? I don't remember any Tri-motors racing this year. Sunday's gold will come down to radial brut force over inline finesse.
I have one of these decanters also...I think I gave about $10 for it on an ebay auction about two years ago. It was empty of course. There is still one offered on ebay every now and then.
