Hey Alberta Hambers!! Time to pull your socks up!!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Jalopy Kid, Aug 18, 2009.

  1. Thanks Plodge, we'll get the daily looking sharp.

    I'm going to pull the rad this weekend and take it over to A1 on Monday. It's originally from there years ago, just gave them a ring and they'll hopefully be able to braze a new neck on it next week. I just need to find a new fan and upper rad hose. Either local at Bowness or i'll pick one up out of the catalogues.

    Just talked to Scott (owner of the Diner) and he's stoked to have everyone. You guys will get a kick out of him.

    Delmo, you in?

    As for what time we should meet, how about lunch? That gives everyone a chance to get there and time enough to get there from out of town, and those of us who are hung over from the night before.
     
  7. Well shit, I better get my stuff together then! Got everything out tonight and shouldn't be an issue to be back together for the 12th....it is the 12th we're still talking about isn't it??

    The 12th of September.

    Scott sounded like he was excited about the whole ordeal when I spoke to him on the phone, so I'm hoping to have a good turnout to make it worth his while!

    James, Did you get yourself sorted out? I have plenty of spares... fan blades, water pumps etc. How'd you make out with the rocker cover?

    I'm good to go on the 12th. I'll bring up the fiddy. I'll let Jonathan know and maybe we'll head up together.

    Peter, right on man! Looking forward to seeing the 50!
     
  11. The rocker cover is tip top, thanks again! If you have a spare fan laying about I'd definately be interested. Just let me know?

    I'm going to get the rad into A-1 on Monday and see what they can do.

    If I'm still in the country I'll be there for sure. Very cool that it's actually going to happen.

    hey peter maybe i could meet you guys at the Carstairs over pass or somethin?
     
  16. I have the new rearend from Matt here at the shop now. So it should be back on the road tomorrow for sure. So now I have no excuse on not taking the model A. If i really bust my ass I may get the edsel back together in time also.
     
  17. I'm definitely game for convoying up there. My wheels aren't the fastest with the aging 216 and 4.11's, but if everyone is up for a relaxing drive up the 2 then great. Otherwise no worries, my feelings won't be hurt!

    Hey James I'm sure we can round up some guys to make the trip together, I've got farmer gear 411's as well.
    I'm just waiting on some paper work to go through then I'm off to Cali for awhile. Kinda want to stick around for this meet though now. LOL

  20. Okay the coupe is back on the road now.
    And it's 3" lower in the back now thanks to a Model T spring I picked up the red deer swap meet for $5.
    And the front is 1 1/4" lower now after I took out 4 leaves. Plus it rides way way smoother now.
     
  21. George G (George and Gavin from stony plain are in also.
    He just PM me

    I guess that pretty much sums it up right there! Thanks for being such a generous guy, Lee. I'll be having the Monte Cristo with fries and a Pepsi.

    Totally into convoying! I'm with James though... 50-55 mph tops! Maybe up the 2A?

    Mike, PM your number and we'll hook-up on the way.

    On a side note. This Wednesday I'm having a pizza night at my place with the Rollers. If any of you guys want in, RSVP by PM'n me. We can make it a Delmo send off party. I'm suppling the pizza (BYOB) and blowing out the cul-de-sac so bringing a Hot Rod or Motorcycle would be mandatory! There's lots of room for parking.

    James, I'm home around six tonight and tomorrow... you know where I live.

    James, make that a little later tonight. Say around 8:00 if that works. The wife just made some dinner plans.

    Peter
     
  29. Yep, no worries Peter. I'll drop by around 8:15 or so.

    James
     
  30. Ted the rock 'n' roll mechanic wants to come too. Add him to the list.
