Dang it Steve, that's such a tempting offer. If I leave tomorrow I might just be there in time to see ya leave.....

Hope the rest of the TX gang responds. Would be nice to see the community get together.

And we thought about making the meeting place in west Plano, say around 190 and the Dallas tollway so the eastern folks would not be so far away. Let's see who is interested and then we can decide where we can meet at...

oldcutlass

Well today is Momma's B'day, so thats out. I work from 8-7 the rest of the time. If on the way home you decide to cut thru Granbury, I can meet up with ya! PM me.

costpenn

I'm in - let me know when finalized as to where and when. I'll see if another couple of Olds guys would want to come along - really like Rob's idea about where!!

Joe

I work at Mike Brown Ford, the previously enjoyed sales building (Ford Used). It's right on Hwy 377, my direct phone is 817-279-5951. I drive the car everyday so it will be there! If you can't maybe we can meet up some other time!

Alex72cutty

I'm in. I work nights but do not mind taking some time off to meet you all. I stay in Mansfield but do not mind driving. Grapevine sounds like a good area to meet so Steve doesn't have to drive so far. My car is in the shop still but will have pictures to show you all

So, tomorrow night (Wendsday)? Suggest around maybe 7:00 PM for heat's sake - maybe have dinner somewhere and then cruise over to a Sonic for ice cream and some pics? Like someone else said - something in the 190 and Tollway vicinity would be easier driving wise for everyone?

Lady72nRob71

How about dinner at Sonic just to keep it simple? Their burgers are not too bad.
Here is a convenient location on the south side of Frankford, just off 190 past Marsh, at the 'B' mark.
I am up for tomorrow at 7ish.

costpenn

Yes the Tollways here have that scheme - they call it Zip Cash (pay by mail) here.

Looking forward to finally meeting some fellow CO er's - will bring the Hurst if I can get it ready in time.

Joe

Lady72nRob71

Yep, 3650 Frankford Road, Dallas, TX.
You can avoid the tollway if you'd like - I will do so. It is all automated and costly as well.
Joe, forget getting it ready - just drive it! No judging will be happening... Lady will have a thin layer of dust and some crap behind the wheelwells, but she won't care!

Alex72cutty

Thats sounds good!! Hopefully, I can get mine ready by the end of the day tomorrow!!

costpenn

Do you still need that fan shroud? Sorry I never called you back - I was travelling and forgot all about it!

costpenn

Also Alex, do you still have that steering column I gave you? I need the keys that went with it for the door locks on my car! If so, could you bring tomorrow night?

Joe

I don't want to be the one to come to the party late and change everyones plans but why not meet at a resturant that has nice refrigerated air being pumped inside the building. My vote is for a Hooters or Twin Peaks but anywhere with air would be great.

Lady72nRob71

Hmmmm...... Hooters or cars.............................................. ...........

I think focus should be on cars this time.

Buffalo Joe's bar and grill is just behind Sonic, in the event it is "too hot"...
Looks to be ample parking, too.

gearheads78

I will show up and show off my 225K mile beat up Dodge diesel

Lady72nRob71

Oh, come on!!
You have half a dozen classic cars now. You need to get at least ONE of them out of kit form soon.

Oh, go fill your gas tank before you leave...

costpenn

Glad we're still having it at the Sonic - and maybe adult refreshments might be close by as well....

Got two other local Olds guys coming to the event - hopefully both bringing their cars - a 65 Starfire and a 67 442.

Lady72nRob71

Great! This is gonna be a good get together, IF the scattered storms stay way.
BTW, get these guys on this forum, soon!

oldcutlass

He wants you to bring the frog!

Man I wish I wasn't so far, I'd come out there but I don't get off normally until 7, and I have 1 consumer still! So most likely won't be till 8.

costpenn

Sad - aint it.

And believe me, I've done my share of getting Olds guys together in the past!!

costpenn

We'll see you when you get there and save you a spot!!

gearheads78

That hurt Don't worry I don't go by the gauge any more. I can get about 550 miles to a tank and I am only about 200 miles in

gearheads78

He can't eat my buddies legs.



How about we meet at Chick-Fil-a ???...............uh never mind

Lady72nRob71

Mmmmm - frog legs...............
Come on, we will give him some little froggie crutches to get around on.
My new motto - "Eat more frog 'n' grog!"

gearheads78

So who all is for sure coming out tonight?

Lady72nRob71

Scary thought, but I can run fast....
I will be there for sure. Lady should be there. If rain chances are good, i will take the daily driver...
Richard, let me know if you want to ride with me, since we are coming from about the same place. Would save you a box-o'-diapers worth in diesel.

gearheads78

Thanks but I have to make a couple pit stops on my way home and I might have to work a little late anyway. I will be there as soon as I can.

costpenn

I'm coming - especially since I live about 2 miles from there. I'm pretty sure Ted and Chris are coming as well.

dallasite21

I will try my best to make it, but I have my kids tonight and my wife wont be home till 8:30. I may swing through there and just introduce myself, get the kids a slush and head home.

Lady72nRob71

Hey, that works!
More rain looks to be on the way but hopefully it will all be dried up by 630!

dc2x4drvr

I think I can make it, have to drive the F**d, 442 engine is on a stand..I like cigars

Lady72nRob71

You have 6 hours to get it in and running - you can do it!

dc2x4drvr

Right...this little project has taken on a life of it's own sort of like your underhood deal.

gearheads78

I will introduce myself. Its been so long its like I don't know you.

tru-blue 442

Sounds like a blast guys!
One of these days...
The Austin and San Antonio
Guys need to set up tooooo.
Lost the OG in my 70 beater, so the OD
goes in! Try, try again. My oldest boy
said he would be here Sat. morning early.
"No prob Dad, It's only gonna be *102."
The 69 will still be in pieces untill my body
guy can figure out when he can get it in...
Yeah right, your'e already into me for 6K.
But that's another rant.

I guess I'm saying sounds like fun! Wanna go
too, lol.

Lady72nRob71

I'm getting ready to head over to Sonic (will take 30 minutes).
Rain looks to have gone away and the streets should be dry. Temp is a nice 86* here due to cluds.
Lady will be happy to stretch her legs.
Hope to see everyone there, with Olds', too!

oldcutlass

Sorry, can't make it! The boss is gone so I'm doing my Asst Sales Mgr duties, and I have a consumer. Maybe some other time we can all get together.

DO any of you go to Busy B's Bakery on Sun mornings on the Southside of Ft Worth?

gearheads78

I'm here....sun is out and its hot again
