Sorry that this Sunday won't work for me and I hope to be invited up there in the early Spring.....Happy Holidays!...Big Bob....

Bob,
Thanks for the interest.Being a Holiday weekend ( and not to mention the busiest shopping weekend of the year) your position is way more than understandable.Currently I'm working on putting together an early Spring meet.With others that have posted an interest ( and some have come out of the woodwork so to speak), we should be able to pull it off.Seeing that we have the entire winter to plan it and with active participation by all of us,maybe we can make it a true old-time "club" affair.
It goes without saying that the "Cruise Day" idea down to your meet is alive & well and I will work diligently with all who want to get involved to "pull it off".

I've put a gathering together at F1 Boston in the past. They have a large parking lot, food and we can take some trips around the into go-kart track.

Sean,
Funny you should post this.I was thinking the same thing when I drove by Square 1 today.But then I thought that where Circuit City at S/S Plaza is relatively remote, we may be OK.If it does build up, we can always simply go down the road ( Northerly),under 128 & left @ first light onto Forbes Rd. into one of the businesses parking areas there.BTW, how are you making out with your dilemma? I hope that it hasn't got you bummed to bad.But I can't see how it wouldn't.Keep your chin up BUD.

Very good idea !! It brings some extra added incentive to a get together -- visa/vie something other than standing around talking up the cars & Mods ( more like making a day out of it.Lets bounce it around and see where it goes. As you can probably tell, I really don't care where we meet just as long as we do get together and grow together.

I had to work this mornings until 10. I flew out of work, went straight to the car wash and was at Circuit City at 11:20. The only person there was Lusciuos300C. We went over to F-1 to see if any one was there but no one was there. Lusciuos300C had to go to work and I went back to Circiut City and hung around until 1:20. During that time not one person showed.... very disapointing!!!! I was really looking foward to this meet
