    its been awhile since i have been on the forums and i figured now is a good time to start coming back and visiting, i have finally made the move to the dayton ohio area and have internet access again, i am going to take this week as a vacation and go exploring this area and see the sites, i know the air force museum is right up the road and all, but is their somewhere i can see cars, is their any cruise nights out this way or anything close to resembeling this.......???????

    I will still be coming back to michigan from time to time, especially for auto rama and to visit close friends around the detroit area, and also to get some of them great tasting cookies.......

    but if theirs anything car related to do down in this area please let me know, i am also gonna be exploring the kentucky area, being only less then a hour away, for a new project..........hopefully i can find one hidden in the back woods somewhere.......lol

    America's Packard Museum on Ludlow. Lots to see, open every day. You won't be disappointed. It's more than cars. Liberty engines, PT boat and Packard/Merlins, memorabilia and old dealer stuff too. Was the "Citzens Motorcar Company", a Packard Dealership built in 1917. There's more but that's a good start.

    Join the Ohio Social Group. They tend to type slow but they aren't so bad. Hook up with Vance if you get a chance and tell him I said hey. Blacktopbandit is KO, too.

    FYI. Welcome to Sinus Valley. I lived there for 3 years and apologized to my wife nearly every day. Thank God we got back to Michigan State.

    hey Dave,

    If you don't mind a 1/2 drive, your welcome in Piqua...I have the coupe up on jack stands ready for some updates, we could take a cruise in the daily PU, or whatever...and there's always beer in the fridge.

    Phil
