AJ, ask me if every thing is ok the evening of the meet and if it's within reason, I'll let you take it for a quick spin.

AJ, Flip, you going to the lake meet with us???

I'll look also as I think I have some extra spacers. If I can remember I'll also bring the pipe foam and the metal tape for the air conditioning mod.

Jason, Bark - I ordered the premix today

It is just bad timing my sister got VIP and table service at Hollywood and Highlands for her birthday and I have to go, it lands on the same weekend. I would've really liked to go and bring the wifey and her new dental floss bikini.

That pipe foam would be awesome. Cooler A/C

I love dental floss bikinis!!!!!!! To bad. You don't have to stay the weekend - drive down for a day just let us know which day so we will expect you.

If we get a few people, I plan on staying late. Drive by and see if we're still there.

Oh, damn.. Well, what about the interior? Have you done anything to that or is it still all stock?

As I said before, it's like heaven but on wheels.. But, let me know when you wanna move the boxes, of course I'll be there to help! From there we can go to the meet.. But, how are you gonna move the boxes in your 8 or the wife's Civic?

You tap your clear corner using wire into your blinkers. Now your blinkers are no longer D.O.T. legal and you get pulled over

All my friends that I left in Cali 45 years ago have left with the exception of my father and sister. My father would leave in a minute but feels that at his age the disruption would be too much. The only reason my sister stays is to get a retirement. Business is moving out due to the Marxist rules imposed upon them and the taxes. Try and buy a home there on a modest income - next to impossible. Wait until tax time and you will get the rude awakening of a life time. Decent paying jobs are leaving for other locations and without a degree you will be lucky to get a job that will keep your head above water. If you do get lucky and find a good job, it will be miles from where you choose to live and now you will be introduced into the freeway system and it's congestion.

The allure of the Rich and Famous, Disneyland, Knots, the Pacific ocean, the beach communities. There are lots of ways Cali is a fun place to visit and travel thru but the shine gets dull in a hurry.

Do I enjoy going to Cali? Why sure but I go to visit my father, see friends and Seven Stock. Would I move back? Never willingly. I know that the allure of Cali works on you every time you visit.

Most of you are spoiled - You live in one of the most sought after destinations. The roads are good, no real taxes, high paying jobs, many things to do and (while a little high) afordable housing. The grass always look greener next door - until you get there and then you see the brown spots.
