Mike Graboski, Art &Toni (Graboski) Ruiz (Capetown caravan trailer question)

Hi,

Does anyone know if any of the Graboski's (Mike or Gladys) or Ruiz's (Art or Toni) are members of the forums? I read in a VAC newsletter from 2000 that they attended a rally and spoke. I'm trying to find out info about the trailer the Graboski's used on the Capetown to Cairo caravan. I'd like to contact them, if anyone could help, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!

I was at the rally where they spoke about the caravan. Mike and Tonys mother was also there to speak to us. I don't know where they are but I do know that Pee Wee knows them, but I don't think he follows the forums right now.

I agree with Doug,

Your best bet is to contact Pee Wee, but he has nothing to do with AIRforums right now.

I spent a couple of days with Toni while filming the History Detectives show. She lives in McAllen, Texas - which is almost as south as you can go in Texas. She no longer has an Airstream but was fun to talk to about the caravan. I learned all kinds of interesting "not in the books" bits of information.
