Know how that goes Tommy! I ain't been online much the past month or so either. Seems that it's just one thing after another. *sigh*

Since June is most peoples vacation month,. Lets plan a get together around the second weekend of July. What do you guys think?

The weekend of the 17th would be better for "me"...but i'll go along with the general concensis...consensus...the general konsentsuss? Aw hell...i'll do whatever everybody else wants! :D

I'm for it! Just don't make it any further west than Charlotte please......

Say when and where. I'll do my best to be there. Got that leakin' tranny fixed and I'm ready to go!

I should be able to make it, count me in!

Since that's in the heat of summer try to pick a cool shady place !

Hey, Will everyone be here the June 12? Bobby, What did you have to do to the trans?

Hey, Will everyone be here the June 12??

6/12 Works for me! :thumbsup: Wha'cha got in mind?

I believe the 12th may work. My daughter is having a sleep over birthday party on the 11th, so I will probably be ready for a sanity check. 8O I do have plans for that evening.

As far as the tranny goes, all I had to do was spend $442 bucks. Simple huh? :cry: I had it pulled, every seal & gasket replaced, and a new B&M torque converter put on it. That obviously cut into my interior budget.

:cry: These 70 hour weeks are making an old man out of me! Ya'll set a place and time and i'll try to make it! 8) Hans

I feel like a live at the base instead of home! OK, We have a tenative date. What would you like to do?

Hello TOMMY! Anybody Home? 8O Time to make an executive decision! We have a date, like next week! :cry: Just tell us where, and we will come! :P

Hi dudes, Sorry I have been MIA , but Uncle Sam has been riding me hard! 8O Anyway, do you want to do the same thing as we did last time? I finally did get Saturday the 12 off. Want do you all think?

I'm tentatively planning on driving to a cruise in at Kevin Whitaker Chevrolet in Greenville SC with some friends that day. KW moves all the new cars off his lot for the monthly event and they have a big turnout! KW also has his own collection of classic Chevys that will be on display in the showroom. If plans change I can meet up with you guys, or maybe you would like to drive down there.

I finally did get Saturday the 12 off. Want do you all think?

YESTERDAY at this time i would have posted that i'd be there with bells on...BUT...blew the new motor in the '79 vette yesterday. http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Tears.gif So it looks like i'm gonna be haulin' it over to Knoxville next weekend.

http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Sigh.gif Does it ever end??? http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Sigh.gif

You need to have a long talk with your foot!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

Man, I hate it hear that Al. Unless any of you other guys want to meet up on the 12 ,I say lets plan on next month. I can meet up on 10 July or 24 July. What do you guys think?

8) Next month sounds good to me! To short notice for this one. :cry: Should have a definite place and date set at least two weeks ahead of time so we can build excitement. :lol: Tell us where and we will come! Your call Oh Great Exaulted One! :mrgreen: Hans

The 10th is the day of the regular cruise in here in Columbia, the 24th is open for me though.

... I can meet up on 10 July or 24 July. What do you guys think?

Either one works for me! http://www.corvetteforum.net/c4/alchemist/thumb.gif

I went to a pretty good show in Matthews on Saturday. Sorry guys but I found at last minute myself. I would say 50 to 100 cars of all kinds. That's where I found out about Mint Hill.

I just got back from a trip. I see that there hasn't been much posting going on, When the weather is good its hard to sit in front of a computer. I am going to scout around & hopefully find a great place to meet like last time. Any ideas would be great.

..I am going to scout around & hopefully find a great place to meet like last time. Any ideas would be great.

My vette club has been meetin' over at Vinnie's on Hwy 16. It's just north of Mt.Holly/Huntersville road. Good food...great parking...nice lookin' service staff. http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c5/woeii//Smiles/dancingnaughty.gif

How about somewhere like Darlington or Rockingham? I believe Rockingham has the NASCAR hall of fame. We could meet at either place on a Saturday. They are both a little closer for us east-enders, and shouldn't be too far for most of the folks that were at the last gathering. I personally don't care, but I know some of the folks drove a lot further than the eight hours round-trip that I drove.
My 82 SS is currently in the body shop getting a new coat of paint. It should be road worthy the first part of August. I picked up an 84 SS with the stock gas-eating 305/350 combo. I plan on changing that in the very near future.
Any how, the places are just suggestions, I'm open to most any place.

It's great to finally see some responses. :) Anyone else?

A number of other "meeting" places in the Lake Norman area come to mind as well (if that's an area of interest to meet). And there's all kinds of NASCAR shops and museums in Mooresville if anyone's interested in makin' a bit more of an all day or afternoon "event" out of the trip.

Hum, I could make a trip to Mooresville.

Had another thought too. There's LOT'SA parking and "eaterys" at Cannon Village if that would be of interest as a place to meet also.

I think its time for a vote! Yo Hans, I talked to your s-son for a while the other day.

I think its time for a vote!

I assume we're talkin about get'n together on the 24th???

Oh...and i meant there's good eat'n and lotsa parkin at CONCORD MILLS...not Kannon Village. http://www.discodelic.netfirms.com/blah-doh2.gif

MAN! So much indecision. :cry: Just tell us when and where and we will come!!!!! :lol: Its impossible to make everyone happy. Post it and boast it, I say! Concord Mills is cool with me. 8) Hey Tommy, Glad to hear you met my soldier boy. He sure has a gravy job. :P Seeya Hans

OK, Lets meet at the Mills on the 24. I will scout it out, next week. I do not get to that side of town very much. :)

http://www.corvetteforum.net/c4/alchemist/thumb.gif Sounds like a plan!!! http://www.corvetteforum.net/c4/alchemist/thumb.gif

Attaboy Tommy! Take the ball, and run with it!!!!!!!!! :lol: Lots of open, High visability areas over there!! :P Its more fun if people drive by and stare! 8) See ya, Hans, ps, Hey Al! Bring that wild girl with you! :oops:

I am hoping some of you "out of towners" can come too. It's right off 85 near the speedway. Has anyone heard from Bobby lately?

Can't get rid of me that easily. Yep Tommy, I'm still here and been kind of half heartedly keeping up with things I'm ashamed to admit. It's been a really busy summer and I just haven't spent a lot of time at the home computer. It gets tough to do sometimes after spending all day at work in front of one.
Tommy, I got your voicemail too late tonight (TUESDAY) to return your call. Been out putting new brakes and shocks on my every day ride. I'll hollar at you early Wed. evening.
As far as the 24th at Concord Mills, it sounds good to me. I'll be there unless something REALLY important comes up!

Bobby, Glad your still around. Ok that's 4 of us so far. Can anyone else make it? I am going to have a hard time getting over there this week, but will try the first of next week.

Tommy...when ya go...be sure'n pick out an easy spot for us to find. It would be VERY easy to not be able to find a small group of elkys in that MASSIVE parking lot!!!

That brings up a good point. If yall can, could everyone email me with a cell phone number or home home so I can get a hold of yall if things change?

If i remember correctly, the far end of the mall (opposite end from Bass Pro) is usually the least congested. That may be the easiest spot to find one another.

That's the EXACT spot where my vette club meets when we're getting together there. There's no resturaunt there on the east end of the mall, but no biggie...we'll just cruise en-mass around the parkin' lot to wherever we go. :D

I'm thinking about driving up but I'm not saying for sure yet.

I'm finishing up building a 12 bolt for Ol Paint and I'm unsure if I can get it in and checked out before I hit the road or not. I probably should just leave the 2.73, ten bolt in till afterward. I'm anxious to try the 3.31, 12 bolt out though. I'll keep you guys posted.
