Jeff Balazs Posted December 5, 2015 Report Posted December 5, 2015 Guy's you tell me what time works for you.......I was thinking 8am or 9am. Give us time to gab and gawk and it is only about a ten minute run over to Knowlwoods. There are other eating options nearby. I will have a coffee pot going.......but no latte. My shop is literally a minute off the 5 & 405. Address is 8 McLaren, Unit H, Irvine 92618. Phone there is (949) 461-9558. The complex is located on the corner of Rockfield and McLaren. And yes the street is named after the famous racer.....Oldfield is just past one of the driveways in. There should be plenty of parking on a Sunday. Jeff Quote

I take backroads as I ginger my baby to OC. (That is if she isn't in the shop....if she is I'll take the old Benz.) If everyone is okay with 0900, I'll post a message in the events page to remind us all as we get closer to the day. I'll be just coming back from a work trip and I'll definitely enjoy this as I've wanted to meet some other owners for quite some time. There was a guy at Bob's Big Boy last night with a B1B. Let me know guys if this time works! I'm excited! Thanks, Jon Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted December 5, 2015 Report Posted December 5, 2015 9am is just fine with me. Hopefully we will have our traditional warm mid January weather. Jeff Quote
fedoragent Posted December 5, 2015 Report Posted December 5, 2015 Hope it isn't too hot. We of course don't have AC... Quote
TrampSteer Posted December 6, 2015 Report Posted December 6, 2015 9 AM We WOOD kick off the new Pilot-house year! Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted December 6, 2015 Report Posted December 6, 2015 9 AM We WOOD kick off the new Pilot-house year! You wood bring that up. You realize we will just be a splinter group of a much larger family tree. I hope I am back on a wood diet by then. Have been working on a free form large leaded glass project and I find the shards everywhere are much harder to chew. Jeff 2 Quote
mrwrstory Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Posted December 6, 2015 This is coming together nicely! A thought since no one has mentioned "WEATHER" ,......how 'bout we plan on a confirmation or a reschedule if the weather is crumbly? I suggest our meeting be confirmed or cancelled via this thread on Sat. Jan 16, at or about 6:00pm. We should have a pretty accurate forecast for the morning at that time. And,...in so doing we avoid the dilemma of deciding weather or knot to start out Sunday morning. Quote

One for the reminder and the other for the actual day. If anyone would like to be added to that so that their phone reminds them, please feel free to IM me with your email address and I'll send it out.

mrwrstory Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Posted December 6, 2015 I have invited two other blokes from No. San Diego Co. They will join us via a 49 Plymouth Woody. 1 Quote
fedoragent Posted December 6, 2015 Report Posted December 6, 2015 I have invited two other blokes from No. San Diego Co. They will join us via a 49 Plymouth Woody. FANTASTIC, I'll see if I can get a few other Plym owners as well. Has anyone heard or seen from Dezeldoc? Quote
Tones52 Posted December 7, 2015 Report Posted December 7, 2015 Thanks to Derek for the "heads up" on the latest So Cal get together. I was thinking of this group when I took my 52 to Carcadia that's held monthly behind the Denny's in Arcadia and how neat it would be to see your cars there. If you have Facebook, look up the Carcadia page and maybe that can be a spot for a future get meet up. I remember Jeff offering his shop and that would be great. Maybe pot luck it and just hang out there? The 5/405 area of Irvine would be farthest Lil Jenny has been driven but as someone in the group has said in the past, it's well within the AAA tow range. LOL I'll add the date to my calendar and also IM Jon for updates. I'll text Mike from Glendale who joined us the last time in Long Beach to make him aware. Tony Quote
deathbound Posted December 7, 2015 Report Posted December 7, 2015 If anyone is heading down the 605, let me know and we can meet around the 5/605 or 105/605 park-n-ride and drive down together. Fedoragent, if your concerned about speed, we can cruise around 55MPH and on a Sunday morning, the freeway should be pretty open. If my 201 can do it, you guys should have no problem. Quote
Jeff Balazs Posted December 7, 2015 Report Posted December 7, 2015 Hey Tony glad you chimed in. We can definitely hang out but I am afraid pot lucking it is out. I have no facility for that and there probably won't even be much room inside the shop with the work we have going on. Jeff Quote
fedoragent Posted December 7, 2015 Report Posted December 7, 2015 Folks, I can meet by the 605 and 405. My tires are older...I know the old girl can go up to 65/70...however...I don't want the tires to heat up and split. FG Quote

Any route is fine with my, even surface streets. Quote

I thought about going to that. That is 20ish minutes from my house! We're going to have to meet up sometime there. FG. Quote
fedoragent Posted December 14, 2015 Report Posted December 14, 2015 Gents, FYI, I've reached out to Don Jordan via email too to see if he would like to join us. Also, one of the other Dodge owners are organizing a drive on December 31st down Colorado Blvd and Old Town Pasadena. It starts at 3pm on December 31st at the Coco's in Arcadia. Would you folks like to participate? Some of us could gather at my house in Pasadena and then drive on out. My car is down for the body mount issue, but I'm wanting to go nonetheless. Would anyone be up for that? Thanks, FG. Quote
deathbound Posted December 15, 2015 Report Posted December 15, 2015 Sounds good, but working a nooner or sooner that day, then getting home to the family. 1 Quote
Jarv69 Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 Hey! You commented on some bench seats and noticed I was in LA, Cerritos actually, my ride is a work in progress but would love to join for breakfast if the timing works. Thanks -Jarv 1 Quote
deathbound Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 I'm about 5-10 minutes south of you off the 605. Quote
TrampSteer Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 Is it wrong that I don't want to drive my truck now because I want to "save" it for the 17th? Quote
Brent B3B Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Is it wrong that I don't want to drive my truck now because I want to "save" it for the 17th? Yes, as a mater of fact it is! Now you get out there and drive! We are counting on you, Jeff and Rod.... Do it for us that can't! (And take lots of photos lol) Edited December 16, 2015 by Brent B3B 1 Quote
fedoragent Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Is it wrong that I don't want to drive my truck now because I want to "save" it for the 17th? Not wrong at all. Mine is on a lift right now because the body mounts are rubbish. And I'm not talking the rubber, the actual mounts. Here, I'll post a photo so that we can all gasp in disbelief...I'm hoping she will be ready by 1/17. God only knows at this point. There goes my entire budget for interior, body and paint...sigh. I feel like I'll never get there. FG. Edited December 16, 2015 by fedoragent Quote
mrwrstory Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Posted December 16, 2015 That is a "gasp"! Hope you're able to get it fixed by the 17th. Quote
