Cool, will keep that in mind. Even if the weather isn't nice I would still bring the car as it beats walking, unless I come on one of the bikes.

Awesome, I'll probably come. Maybe you guys can look at my primer RX-7 and give me a quote for paint :)

One place I took it to quoted me 1k to paint a wing and fix a bolt hole. I think that was their way of saying piss off. :P

Hey Mike, you might want to look at the weather, its supposed to rain/snow on Sat. However, if you do want to go I can follow behind you with my towing equipment.

damn you snow!!! I'll probably still come and bring the Subaru :-P

Is this going to be inside now? I guess it was probably going to be mostly inside anyway due to it being in December...

Yeah, knowing how many folks forget how to drive in snow the first couple snowfalls each year might keep me, we'll see.

I looked at the weather and it doesn't look like it'll be cold enough to actually accumulate, so it'll probably just be cold and wet... still not sure I want to drive the rx-7 there in that though. We'll see what happens.

I did just see that you guys are right near PFSupercars, very cool. I might jump over there for a bit while I'm over there and look at some of the crazy RX-7s their working on.

EDIT: nevermind, apparently PFS is/has expanded and is moving somewhere else...

I'll be there, no matter what the weather is. Just not sure which vehicle I will be in. Hopefully its snow covered so I can have fun in "UB". Most likely will be in the truck if we have to pick something up.

Dave Mumford and I were there to hand off the trailer to you and the Morans. Wish I could have stayed longer.

Joe said that he'd donate the black Sprite parts car and even give it a paint job. I think I can get some all the parts to complete the car. Anyone intersted in making a CDC spec car?

I'd be up for helping with it.

It sucks that I got there late and didn't get to hang out with most of you guys (someone flipped their car on 70 :shock: ) but it was fun none-the less, some very cool cars there, and I talked to Joe about painting the primer beast :D

Thanks to everyone that showed up. I can usualy beat big bodyshop prices. I have enough sprite parts to put that sprite together but it will still take a bit of cash. I'll let every one know before I get rid of it.

What would be the big ticket items would we need to purchase? I may be willing to donate some money to the project, but would need to know roughly how much money are we talking? We can get any of the new parts at cost, in exchange for adverstising on the car.

It looks like Mike Golden may be willing to work on the project, Anyone else?

Jacob looks like he's willing to store it. I may be able to store is for short periods for working on the car.
