Before and after pictures of sinkhole Museum cars http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/26/travel...ate/index.html a few are beyond repair, especially the 2001 Mallet Z06

Ah! Now you're just rubbing it in!! 
This is what we were dealing with all weekend...
and this is AFTER we set about 95% of the junk out into the driveway... the massive pile out in the middle is a junk service loading and filling a 20' trailer that ended up being piled about 7' high!
Good news is now my 300zx won't have the ceiling cave in on it

Oh Vann, in answer to your question the parking was fine and the Venue/Food was as good as when the 4 of us ate there the weekend before. We had a table that was right up front so we could see out the front window where we were parked. I guess you could actually call that the side window since it faces the side parking but that is where the door to the restaurant is so I call it the front,, We can talk about other options in case we all want to try a different restaurant one night but we can still meet up at the same parking lot. We will talk next time you have time and we can come up with a plan

Thanks. I love my Grand Sport. It's slow compared to my old 08 Supercharged Coupe though. I think your GTG would have a better turnout if it was on a different day. Late on a school night may keep a few people with young kids from attending. Thanks again, Shawn

Sorry on the name misspell, I only have one other friend that spells his Shawn, so I took the chance that it was Sean My bad We may move it up to 6 instead of 7. We usually do other outings on Saturday, Cruises to Kellers and other shows, is why we picked Sunday Vann and I will discuss Love having you

Time change
Vann and I have talked and made the decision to move the meet time to reflect 6pm instead of 7. Shawn I hope this helps you and others that have kids and those that may have early morning jobs like Kevin who gets up at 4:30am. We are trying to stay flexible for our members needs. We know we can't make everyone happy all the time but will try

We've bumped the next meet up to 6pm which should help a little while we discuss the possibility for other potential days/times for the meet.

6pm Will work good I think It may be more crowded in the Whiskey Cake at that time but if we can get a reserved table it will work great

I thought I would let everyone know that my A/C compressor was on its way out... It put out cool air but not ice cold air... Compressor was putting out 25 psi.. Thats ok if the temperature is under 80 degrees outside, otherwise it sucks azz! We have 4 shops that specialize in Corvettes... Shop#1 said they were unable to do A/C work because they did not have the equipment, so they refered me to an automotive a/c shop... I was a little bit shocked... Shop #2 was way overpriced.. Shop#3 only said I needed a Compressor only.. 3 Things are mandatory when you replace an a/c compressor!! Accumulator, compressor and orifice!! Always! It would be like not replacing a throw out bearing and pressure plate on a clutch job.. WTF? Anyhow Shop #4 did the job, with genuine GM Parts, in about 4 hours at a very reasonable price... Two thumbs up for 21st Century Muscle car, especially Matt, who called me 3 times, when the parts came in, when the work was started and the last call was when the work was finished...All in a days work... Awesome job!

21st Century Muscle Car is the shop of my choice as well. I have had several items completed there and have never been disappointed Matt and John are great and have been around the longest in Corvette repair in our area.
