I want to thank everyone for a great 2004 Bash at the Beach!  The weather was absolutely perfect, sunny and in the mid 70's, the beach was beautiful as always, and even the grass was green this year!  Special thanks go out to Darren Tucker of ITS Mortgage who is our sponsor and makes this a now cost event to the participants.  Also special thanks go to Dearborn Classics who were the only vendor to donate door prizes this year, Mike "McFord" McPhillips from Autozone who donated many door prizes, the Fairlane Club of America who also donated to the cause, Jerry Ostalecki of Ostalecki Motorsports who donated door prizes, Ed Nowakowski who donated door prizes, Phil Paskvan who donated door prizes, Jan Clements who helped register participants all morning (thanks Jan, couldn't have done it without you!), Joe Giganic (my brother-in-law) who year after year comes though with supplying the transportation to haul all the stuff needed to put on the Bash, and my kids and their cousins (Danielle, Chris, Andrea, Trisha, and Aaron) who helped tremendously!   But most of all I want to thank the people who show up year after year and make the Bash at the Beach one of the best Torino / Fairlane shows in the country!  Without you guys, none of this would happen!  Our offical count this year of eligible cars was.... 91 !!!!!!
