Atlanta Hamb & Grits Sunday 2/3

It's that time again...

9am this Sunday at The Skillet in Roswell. http://www.theskillet.com/

Who's gonna be there?

I won't be there cause I'll be in Florida, but I figured I'd go ahead and start the roll call!

 

Thanks man, I guess I was asleep at the wheel. Sorry you can't make it.

 

Miss Kim wants to drive her new scoot - not too sure if she is ready to drive a stick yet. The seat is collapsed and she can only see the bottom of the dash - says there are wires hanging under there....

 

I WILL TRY TO BE THERE
BTTTTT
HOPEFULLY IT WON"T BE 16 degrees again I STILL HAVEN'T WARMED UP
TELL US MORE ABOUT MISS KIMS ADVENTURES IN STICK DRIVING
THAT SHIFTER WAS A BIT LIKE A STICK IN A JAR OF JAM I COULD SEE GETTING LOST THERE

I LIKE ALL CAPS _ IT IS FUN

 

Damn, you guys in Altanta have got a good thing going on. Perhaps I will drive the four hours to have some of that famous Grits you guys are always having someday.

 

I don't know if I would drive that far to hang out with us.
Seriously, we're hoping this thing realy takes off when the weather gets nicer.

 

I'm planning on making a couple trips up this year, but I have to get off my ass and get my engine rebuild going or I ain't making nothing...

So, would you drive 1.5 hours to hang out with you guys?

 

Hell yea! We are easily 2 hours of fun. Just ask Slick50, Ken and Vicky drove from Greenville for the first one. But come to think of it, we have'nt seen them since.....

 

Hell yeah! bring that old bird to keep my comet company...dont wanna be the only 6banger

 

hell, I drive an hour to be here, and I *live* here.

 

i did 12 hours to make it to one in december! but hanging out with them guys....priceless

 

Not this time,
Me and my first wife are driving up to Peoria,Illinois,leaving Friday A.M.,to haul a load of household goods.
My eldest boy,(23),got a job up there doing engineering work for Caterpillar.
He has found an apartment in the area,and hopefully will have a short sentence up there,and will be re-locating in about 6 months.

That should put his mechanical engineering ass back to this area,working in Griffin,Ga.

 

Awww you're so sweet. But we all know you only came for the streak-o-lean.

 

Damnit Chuck. When are you bringing your ass up here for some GRITS!!!

I think it is defintely worth the 10 minute drive to go. We have had a good showing, looks like it will be warmer this weekend so maybe we can hang around and shoot the shit again this Sunday. That last too were either cold or wet.
This thing is growing pretty good we should have a full blown bi-weekly car show by summer.

P.S. Tell your first wife I said hello.

 

Bump for the evening crew.

 

I'm planning on being there.

 

you two should swing a little more north.....and say 'Hi'

 

Allright, the weather is supposed to be nice, who else is gonna make it?

 

i think we might ride on up. Hopefully it wont be to cold and we can drive my truck. Or Ed's 55 if we can get the brake lights to stay working.

 

Planning to skip church and roll down in the Suburban. The trans is fixed!!! Woo-hoo!!

-Brad

 

'55?!?We need to see that! Who needs brakelights.

 

I just talked to Chad from the Road Devils, he's bringing his brushes and 1-shot, so bring on your naked sheetmetal.

 

So how was the turn out? Did Grumpy Ed's 55 and Brad's Suburban show? The better question is if they showed up, who got pics?

 

Good turn out. Funny thing though, they moved the tables way back around to the back.

I have a picture I'll try to get up later on tonight.

 

Yup--I made it. But late. Seems I have a weak starter, and it heat-soaks really easy. To make a short story long, 25 minutes waiting for the starter to work again, plus 10 minutes of doing a 23-point u-turn next to my shop after a failed bump-start attempt, and we were on the road.
It's 115 miles round trip for the Sub. We put over 250 miles on the truck yesterday, and got about 18mpg. Not too bad...and I know there's a little more to be had.

Suzi and Boy Wonder both had a real good time...we'll be back.
-Brad

 

Well its obivous that the '55 doesn't want to leave Winder guess the only way yall are gonna see it, is if I post pictures.. Made it 3 miles from the house and the alternator went out. So maybe next time.

 

Good to meet ya fellas, had a good time. totally worth gettin up early on a sat. And I managed to go scoop up the BSA afterwards (hopefully she'll be runnin next go round at the skillet) I got pics and a video of that chebby burnin em' down 9...Ill post them once i figure out how to shrink em down....

 

We were all wondering where you guys were....I thought maybee you were still frozen from the night before.
Sounds like it was the day for hotrod adventures, besides Ed's alt. and Brad's starter, my truck would'nt idle all day, and Keith left his Merc on the side of the road and drove the Lincoln.
Oh well....thats the fun of hotrodin' .
Glad to see all the new faces.
See y'all 2/17

 

Next time we will be driving ol reliable!!! Man gues it wasn't a day to be on the road. Oh well makes it that much more fun, sometimes!

 

Umm, it was Sunday.
