Default Toronto Area Vette Boys

Ok guys we have to nail this thing down. So far we are on for Sarurday April 27th. After that I am lost, are we going to Flav's then a cruise up to Port Perry - met a vendor from Pt. Perry that sells POR-15 as well as many other things, http://www.caswellplating.com, as well as Vette Works(?) which is down the road from them. If we are I told them that I would contact them to give prior notice of our arrival, or they may head out to the Ancaster show if it is that same wknd. So chime in boys, I am really tied up this week and into next.

I am more than happy to be the meeting place and starting gate.:lol: I wonder if we should all cruise down into the city from here past pyjamasam's wedding party at Casa Loma. Maybe we can give him/us a photo op.

I am so jealous of all you guys with cars that are driveable!! I would have to pull a Fred Flintstone to get mine moving right now!! I SO have to get this car finished A.S.A.P.!!!!!! Maybe I will have a body drop party later this summer and all you guys could attend!! I think that would be cause for a celebration, after all, it's only been 5 years since I drove the car!! Would you guys be into that?

Nice looking frame, Bob.
Obviously back from the sandblaster, but did you get it powdercoated or are you gonna POR-15 it?
Looks like you're gonna be the first ever "frame-drop" as opposed to body-drop once you get everything bolted on. :lol:

Jim, are you any closer to driving yet, if not I can pick you up in Aurora for the day's food fest and cruise. And Luvmy73 I will definately IM you the details, but right now I have to give an uncle a send off, took him on a great cruise last summer - his first ride in a vette, and with the top down, drive Anne & I to the funeral home last night top down, he would have liked that. Later boys, keep this post going and I will firm things up with the details by the weekend, Grand Pooh Baah out. :blueangel:
