Fred,
I've been looking for a wailing wench my whole life! Best I could come up with is a blond from R.I., with two kids.
Let me get this straight, Jim is offering you free drink tickets for beer you have already purchased, what a guy!
Thanks for the invite, I'm in the process of trying to make my garage P=Car worthy and am starting the process today.
Save me a wench!

Where are we driving to next weekend? Mashpee?Falmouth?Ipswitch?

911Rips · 11-25-2007, 01:15 PM

I will put together some roads in the Marion to Onset area and to the bridge. How about one of the Cape guys picking up there and setting up some roads, Pocasset down through to Falmouth.
Early run? either day, weather pending! Let me know I'll get hopping on it. If Jim, Peter, Paul, or Bob get back to me and can set up the southern part, I'll send out to the e-mail list.
How about make it, bring a toy for a child day. We can donate them to a worthy X-Mas cause!

Buckterrier · 11-25-2007, 02:01 PM

I could make this coming weekend

911Rips · 11-27-2007, 03:01 AM

Regarding a run this weekend. I am not available on Sat. due to a work commitment. Sun. does not look promising. However, if someone wants to put this together I'll get the word out on my e-mail list, Also will help with route layout if you want.

Noted.

911Rips · 11-30-2007, 10:37 AM

Bob and Mark, thanks for putting those roads together for a Falmouth run. I have not heard of much interest for this run this weekend and nothing has been to set up for the northern part of this route. I'm tied up with work and am busy this weekend and could not do either day. If anyone wants to pick this up and run with it please do!
I know Jim Logan was hoping to do a run to Vt. next weekend and there has been some interest in that also.
Bob, I am glad you have figured out a way to get free beer tickets from the "Ticketmeister", he seems to want to hold onto those tickets!
regards,
Paul

84_Carrera · 11-30-2007, 10:54 AM

Unfortunately guys, I'm out for Saturday / this weekend...

See my "Ignition Switch Replacement" thread. I also have a couple of people coming over Sat AM for things like brake pads & slaps to the back of the head, along with beering up if it goes beyond noon.

I AM interested in the VT run, though.

Have a great weekend guys & the open door policy's still extended for anyone in the area. No beer tickets required.

911Rips · 12-28-2007, 02:24 PM

Jim L. and I are going to do a drive this coming Sunday. Meet at 7:30 in Berkely,Ma. rt.79, at the same Dunkin Donuts as previous fall run. Pull that P-car from the cozy garage and join us.
We will probably run down through Lakeville and Rochester area.
Let me know if you think you might join us.
Paul

Would love to, but can't.
Maybe next time.

Nemo On Ice in boston, thought I might see you guys there.

sorry, fuel lines and injectors still off car waiting for a new rear fuel line.

84_Carrera · 12-29-2007, 05:48 AM

Paul,
I have a rub issue with the snows in the back as I mentioned separately, but will try to make it by if I can pop the wheel adapters off back there today.

Might even wake the rest of the clan to get out & about early, but if I do, the top'll have to stay up.

911Rips · 12-29-2007, 06:11 AM

Fred,
We've got about six cars so far, wouldn't be the same without the black beauty, get the snows off of there, leave the top up,( for a while). Besides, It's my turn to buy coffee!
Paul

Jim Garfield · 12-29-2007, 06:50 AM

Paul, I'll try to make it. 7:30 at the Dunkin' on Rte.79?

911Rips · 12-29-2007, 08:26 AM

Jim,
Yes, DD is on rt.79,, about 1/2 south of where rt.79 crosses rt140 Berkley, Taunton line.7:30
Hope you can make it.
Paul

84_Carrera · 12-30-2007, 03:18 PM

Pleasure touring with you guys again (ok, "touring" may not be the optimal word...)

Sorry for bailing at the end, saw the time & I-495, told the wife I'd be home by noon, so I took the shot.

It was 44 degrees when I finally got home. I think I finally thawed out around 3:30.

See you guys again soon, Paul please let me know what's up with F1 Boston when you have plans (or if you need help coordinating, happy to make some calls for you).
