Contentment in the Mondial forum

You're right PV Dirk, our Mondi cars are like "the little train that could". Only difference is, a bunch of us have similar "little trains". It tends to bring the little train owners together.

It's a form of something called "love".

Cheers, Hank

 

Far and away my favorite section on F-chat. I don't even own a Mondial anymore, but I like coming here to remember why I got into F-cars in the first place.

 

I tell you, the Mondial room, as I call it, is such a great forum that I hesitate to purchase any other model out of fear of no longer belonging, to this, my Mondial home.

You guys are the best.

 

I totally agree buddy. I have stopped posting Ted under your thread as I feel it has an outside the Mondial section feel, and one that really belongs more in the Politics & Religion section as the dialogues have often times digressed in a not so collegial fashion. You in particular have shown just incredible perserverence and I truly am hoping that the future for you and your wonderful Mondial is as positive as you personally have been.

The Mondial group is truly the coolest on FChat ! Since I've been a member over a year ago, I've certainly learned alot about Ferraris, about Mondials, about how to have fun in life but most of all, its about the people here.

The finest bunch of sorry excuses for not spending more time with our families because we rather be on FChat ;~)
Seriously, we don't always agree on everything but you guys are like family and yes, I would give you the shirt off my back if you needed it !

One of these days, maybe we can all meet up for a special C&C event.
Cheers to all!

 

I noticed. I'm glad though, to hear it wasn't because of something I said or did. I've tried to be fair, over there, but there, are some, from the outside, who have muddied the water to the point it's no longer clear, to what is right and to what has been done wrong.

When it comes down to it, I had no choice but to remain positive and patient. I became trapped, but trying to wiggle out would have cause more harm to me than good. The jaws of this unfortunate circumstance are opening soon and I WILL enjoy my Mondial as you all have shown me it can be done.

I'm drinking a glass of 'Deadly Zins', a red zin I guess, boy is it good. I've got an oil lamp burning in front of me, sitting on a deck I built and it's a good night.

 

How do we do this. Two important members live on the left coast, two others, in Canada, You and 3 others on the east coast, me and another in the middle and few other sprinkled in the south.

That's logistics for ya.

How sweet it is !!!!

Hank, I still need to make it out to LA to pay my respects to my fellow long term Mondial friend.

FWIW, Mondial guys have had the class of the room for many, many years.

 

I agree too. I read 3 threads. 308 because I own one, TR because I would like to have one and the Mondial which is new to me. The mondial is always the first one I read and the one I post the most. I don't know why but it is really different here. Really like a bunch of close friends.

Jay your picture of the docks with all the boats is at the right time for me. I'm presently looking to buy a old Chris Craft cruiser and I was looking at them just before I came here to read tonight. This picture is so relaxing to look at it really makes me want that old boat. Thanks for sharing.

 

I would like to be considered for inclusion on this list... moved from NW Indiana to Canada almost a year ago, after buying my Mondial three years ago. I realize I am not as regular a poster, but hope to establish my bona fides with a trip to post in the next month.

Chicago seems to be the logical choice for a meet up. Never mind that it's kind of an awesome city! It might seem that this privileges the Illinois-based owners, but... bear in mind, they wouldn't get to enjoy as long a drive to Chicago!

 

Agree.
Chicago, First week in May, 2013.
Whose in?

If you bring a car, great. But, it's the people that matter, so just get there.

 

Boy, I wouldn't have to drive far at all

I'm in !!

 

You're on it.

 

If the date works, I would definitely drive my Mondi! That is the link between us, right? I'll definitely need better earplugs than pieces of tissue paper.

 

I would try to do my best, but may is early for me. July and august are best for me.

 

Personally, I will go anywhere. I like PV's suggestion, but I'm wide open.

 

I would like to be included in this list also

Some suggestions:

Best months for folks with kids in school: (June, July, August)
Best states for summer weather: (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Penn)
Best beach towns: (New Jersey, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina)

We should select a place thats not too congested with traffic and people but still cool to get everyone to meet. Jay's small feel beach town seems good for me in Jersey.

I would rent a tow to hook up to my Jeep Sahara and have my Mondi with me.

cheers!

Based on that map, Central PA is the center of the North American Mondial universe. May I offer the option of Hershey Park PA as the meeting spot. The Hotel G has room for most if not all of you and your families and if that doesn't suit your needs, there is the Hotel Hershey just minutes away. I absolutely love Chicago, and would love to meet there as well, but the Mondi weight is definitely weighted towards the East Coast.
