Thumbs up New England GTG 6/24/06!!!!!!

Ok guys tis the season! Lets have a show.

We need a place to host it, somewhere:
Where we can cook, and have lunch.
With bathrooms.
Not in NJ! We drove to NJ last fall, time for the NJ guys to head north!

I'm thinking somewhere in CT or maybe RI, those two states are pretty central. I'd host it at my house frankly but the yard is to small.

Anyone have a yard big enough to park 15-20 MB's?

there's a real nice park in Bristol RI (near Newport) where we've held meets in the past for the car guys.

I've never been to one of these things, but I'm up for Bristol, RI....it's less the ten miles from me! Wonderful, picturesque town.

I need to take a business trip up to Mystic, CT sometime in the near future, Maybe I could roll the two together.

Hmm

Jurypower, its not going to be in Bristol, but in Exter RI at a members house. Directions are also posted.

RI is a small state, you could walk anywhere if you really wanted to

You better make the drive to Exeter!

Hope to make it...

I am making plans to come up with my SDL. If I make it I would like to pull the dash board to make a cutout for a thermocouple meter I want to install (anybody have a jigsaw they can bring?).

Once we get a little closer to the date, I will try to get in touch with Hatterasguy to see about a convoy

Tools to cut out a dash

Hi Red Pike,

I have tools on hand for your dash project including an air cutoff tool, dremel, jig saw etc.

I have a jig saw and most any other power tool you could imagine. I get to go! I get to go!

I think I am going to bolt on my Euro front bumper at the GTG. I just got the rest of the parts in from Austria.
