Corvette meet in Thailand
Hi All
In case some of you folks are going to holiday in Phuket (pronounced Po
Ket) this new year you might drop by Nickies Handlebar on Patong beach to see our Corvettes on display. This is the first time some of us in Thailand will be together and if we get a good responce we will do more gatherings.
My 81 should be complete next week after 1.5 years being redone.

Hoping to get as many as posable to show but in Thailand there are not too many Corvettes so we will see how it goes.

Wish I could make it! My wife and I were over there a couple years ago right after 9/11. We both loved the country - very nice people and great food! I don't recall seeing ANY Vettes though.
So what do you do in Thailand? How long have you been there?

BD,
Do you happen to know Bruce Waite who lives on Phuket Island? He used to have the Paradise Bar down near the Holiday Inn on Patong Beach.
Bruce is big time into building up cars and 4X4 (no Corvette that I know of). He is participating in the rainforest challenge in Malaysia this week or next.

Hey Dean,
I am not familiar with the name Captain Canada but after living on Patong Beach for 5 years I moved in 1987. The guy I mentioned, Bruce Waite, happens to be from Vancouver Canada.
I will see you in Thailand someday soon.
