I will be there what a day I am going to the Winter Nationals in the day then Bob's I hope it does not RAIN!!!!!

 

heh...

 

I might just have to through the family in the ole Studebaker wagon and make a night of it.

I hope it doesn't rain....
.

 

PLEASE NO RAIN!!!!!!! I have tickets for the Winter Nationals on Sat and I really want to go to this deal!!!!!

 

John,
I know what you meen. I have a 6:20 tee time at mountin medows GC friday morning and TEC tickets for the drags on Friday. Pleeeeeeeaaaase NO RAIN

 

I hope no rain as well, This is Joes's deal(Former Nordic Fox MGR) and he's helped us out all of the way with the Broiler and it would be really nice to be able help him out s well.

 

I hope to make it out, but unfortunately rain will be the deciding factor

 

I used to work right there. When did they put in a Bob's?

Looks like I'll be trapped in Fresno this weekend, but will probably be at the Bob's in Toluca Lake next Friday.

 

Bump - but looks like its going to rain - two more storm fronts moving in.

 

If its dry, I'm there.

 

about 3 years ago i think it took over the spot next to the starbucks
in the food for less parking lot

 

Will keep an eye on it, the weather will affect Nick's deal as well. I love that show/swap,hate to see it rained out as well.

 

someone needs to take pics!!

 

Please don't tell me you guys are worried about rain...in February! I would be dancing around naked in that shit, much better than we got....C'est la vie, just tryin to have a little fun.

 

YA Rain seems to be gone for now I am going at 6pm

 

According to Weather .com there is only a 10% or so chance of rain until after 9pm. At 2am there is a 40% chance. Looks like I will be there in my roadster. It will be fun convincing the wife that it will not rain nor be too cold.

 

I just got back from Bob's. No one showed up except myself, Cyclone Kevin and Gasser Garage. And they drove together. What happened to everyone else?

 

I waited till 6pm then left!!!! I was alone!!!!

 

I got stuck taking care of some home related stuff. maybe the threat of rain kept everyone away?

was this promoted anywhere else?

 

Does this cruise happen every weekend or just this one?

 

Timebomb,
Sorry that we missed you, Did you go in and grab some grub?
Joe was ofering up burgers to the participants, I ended up being the last guy there.
Thank you both Gassers Garage and Roasterpu, as well as Gary Robinson and Mike Sauer and family. Joe will attempt to put it on again next month Same Deal so perhaps we'll have a better weather eve and more peeps.

I spent the day @ Nick Alexanders Woody Open House. The day ended up being pretty good save for the morning showers which kept many home,but swapping was going on a great lunch was served and lots of yapping was going on.

Sidebar Here! This may have been the last for this great event!
It seems like the City of Huntington Park wants to do an eminent domain on that whole area in order to put in a COSCO Store. This shouldn't happen as Nick bought these buildings and renovated them, improved the blighted area and made them worth something.

This is a community center that allows many different people to see woodys of all years and enjoy their design. write a letter or send an email.
This place has got to be spared

 

Hey,

I was there until 5:45, nota HAMBER to be seen! Maybe next month?

On the subject of Nick Alexander's fight with the city of Hunington Park, and his renovated property........cities today are like sharks in a tank, in afeeding frenzee, when the city board members smell retail sales dollars from mega-big retailers they go gonzo! More money means more power,more power means more money. History is only important if it "fits" their plan & mission statement. Other than that, it's only an obstacle to the money. The city of Signal Hill has this action down to a fine art, just try and open a small business in that city.

" It's time for another Tea Party ! "

 

Funny that Pimpin and Timebomb both showed and the people inside said no other cars had shown. They told me I was the first to show. I think we showed up at about 6:15 or so. I based my commnet of no one showed on the staff saying no other cars had been there.

 

HUH kinda hard to miss this car but it was dark????

 

Well sorry we missed you guys. Maybe next time. I am really looking forward to the opneing of the Broiler again. I am sure that one will be packed.

 

Joe is having another one this Saturday night, 3/21 at the same time. I may try to make it. Have a busy day planned with honeydo's so will. Burny will post the flyer. Hope that y'all can make it.

 

Here's the poster Kev. I'll be in SD...so I won't be able to make it. Damnit!
