Where is all the So Cal people?

Thats what im talking about. At my job 1 guy drives a 55 he just bought off ebay, two others drive 67-72 chevys. Are we stopping at 72 cause theres a another guy at work who drives a 75 stepside, are we excluding years?

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
I don't think we should exclude years, especially when alot of our truck parts are inter-changable. Ford's and Dodge's welcomed for all I care. The more the merrier!

Need to get permission to use the group logo. But figured something like this to spread the word.

Then again I could be doing too much.

Guys, I won't make it to Harbor City on the 15th. I think we need to get something going that's simple: maybe a group down there on the 15th and another group up at Bob's B.B. in Burbank to start things rolling. I don't care if it's just for coffee in Starbuck's at the Los Feliz Costco/Best Buy just to get things moving with just two or three guys. I think we need to start somewhere and build from there. Any takers?

I'm confused? Why 2 groups in two locations? The ricky & ronnie's get together is going to be as simple as anything can get.

I'm at Ricky & Ronnie's , often ,but the 15th won't work for me .Hopefully the next time .

huero 12-05-2007 10:16 PM

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
Why not post or suggest a date that will work for everyone and maybe we can all agree to re schedule?
I'm still in for the 15th with a friend and his 72 Super.

Kex 12-06-2007 12:04 AM

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
Huero, I don't want to derail the meet on the 15th just because I can't make it. I think if we get a small group, or a couple of small starter groups going, we can meld everything together at some later stage and make a serious SoCal/L.A. group. I'm open to any suggestions though, if you think this is a bad idea.

I probably won't be available for anything more than a 30-60 minute "coffee stop" before mid-January.

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
No problem Kex. I have organized some car cruise's with another website. The key to having a good time and turn out is if everyone makes a appearance whether you have a show truck or beater. The more people that show, the better the time to be had.

Kex I understand that you cant make it, people have things to do. Since I joined this group the SoCal members have been trying to meet each other for years so when the date was thrown out we took it. I see what your saying, if you have a meet with members out your way, they later on we can pick a spot for a combined meet. Kex if you have a smaller meet out there or near you post the date and time, some of us will drive there, me included.
Really want this to happen, and when I fix a few more things, then all the way to San Diego will be next on the list.

:agree: with VDOG 100%
Now, where are the rest of the SO Cal folks that wanted to meet up? We are on page 7 of this thread. Mucho talk if you ask me. I understand any date picked will not work for everyone but, where is everybody else?

You can come in a Yugo with a 350 for a motor, as long as you show up.
This is more of a meet and greet, not really inportant to drive your truck the first time. Some of our trucks are not road worthy yet.
