Buffalo Wild Wings it is. 1:00 works great for me. I'm with Robb on the price of tires though. I just got new Michelin's put on a couple weeks ago. I'm thinking of just pushing the car around to save tread.
Looks like today's going to be a good day to wash the car...with a coat and gloves on.
If they end up voting on Sunday for the run down in OKC, I think I'll be in for that. If any of you other guys haven't heard about it yet, Oklahoma Vettes forum is doing a photo shoot run from the State Capital on Sunday morning at 10 if any of you guys want to go. BlueVette, I know you said you already wanted to go so we'll hook up tomorrow and may start a caravan down there.

Does anyone know a good paint guy. I'm looking for a good paint guy that can paint a couple things for me quick. I just need them shot black. It doesnt have to be perfect but I still want them to look nice.
So is it set that were meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings at 1:00pm tomorrow? Just making sure bc I don't have a computer at home and do not work tomorrow. So I need to know before 6:00.

Jim Powell from TVS always recommended Larry Crain for vette paint work. He painted Jim's 76 show car. I met with him once about painting a top for me, but I didn't end up buying the top so have never had any work done by him. He was super nice and owns a vette. My next door neighbor accidentally scraped her van down the side on her husbands table saw while pulling in the garage and I gave her his info. He did an excellent job painting her door, I couldn't tell it had been painted, and was fairly fast on turnaround too. You might give him a shout and tell him Jim sent ya.
Thanks for the info. I just called him and got his wife. He's supposed to call me later. Thanks again for the help!

Hey Guys, counting Torch Red Tulsan (TRT) we have fourteen vettes for Sunday at 10:00 a.m. at the south steps of the Capital as of the time of this post! Come on down for the 1st Annual Winter Photo Festival of the Non Club Club!
I know BlueVette was also talking about coming down on Sunday. Not sure if anybody else is planning on making it but we'll talk tomorrow about a Corvette Convoy down I-44.

Hey D, I had a red 84 C4 with a real dorky looking spoiler on the back, and a front fender scratched. Crain took it off, repaired the holes, repainted rear deck and front fender, with a perfect color match. He does great work, just kinda hard to find.
Rob, Chad, Darrell, I enjoyed meeting you guys today. Sorry I couldn't make it out to keystone. I will see how today goes and maybe I can make it tomorrow to the capitol!
Yep, great to meet you guys who I didn't know. And great to see those guys I DID know again. Tincup... we'll have to get together at Steve's sometime and swap out those FRC etc.
I won't be able to make it out tomorrow. Everyone who goes, drive safe and have a blast!
Look forward to more gatherings this spring!
Ok, off to try and find somewhere to watch the UFC tonight haha.
Later,
Rob
PS - You're exhaust sounds impressive! When you got on it going under that underpass it got several of our attention haha.
