If anybody wants to step up and call an all LX M&G date for Houston. I would like to include all 3 models, not just 3's. I will be able to show up, but not with my 3CSRT (paint). I would still like to meet all the other Houstonians and Texans (S.A., Big D and Austin).

As some of you may know, I am making the trek in my 3CSRT to spring fling in L.A., in late March. Since I am trying to get my car back in one piece and get to LA. I will not be able to make many M&G's locally or state wide until I get back in April. So until then, someone needs to step up and set a M&G date until I am back.

I mentioned the big meet and greet out in California to my wife and it was met with silence! I'm actually halfway considering the drive out that way to join their party as well. The prospect of being a part of something that big is almost too good to pass up. Of course I'm still in the anything going on here is TX for sure...


Hey "mike" that might have been me on Broadway. I'm out the way from time to time, though I live on the NW side of town. My car is kinda easy to recognize these days though. I've had a custom chrome addition to my hood that spans the inside of the rised portion of it and extends from the grill to the windshield. Probably a bit much for some, but I like! If you see me out, pull me over and we'll talk.

Taylor: Then it may have been you. I didn't get to look at the hood since I was trying to catch up. I'm only on Broadway and Austin Highway because I work downtown and don't feel like taking I-35. I live on the NE side. I'll give you a shout if I see your car. So, if you see a vanilla 300c, boosted acura integra, '64 mustang, or ford focus don't think that he's trying to race. It's me.

I agree with your thoughts. We need to include the station wagons also. I just posted this in the LX forum page, I would love to host a large meet of 300's Magnums and Chargers.

OK, I am having serious withdrawl symptoms. I have been with out my Magnum for a few months and I am thinking about shipping it to be with me in Houston. While in Phoenix I could cruise to the Pavilions every Saturday and maybe plan on a trip to the drags with a group of LX friends.

I just purchased a building in Houston that has parking for 1100 cars, located on I-45 in north Houston, and would like to see about getting a meet together at the property. Anybody out there interested? Southern Cal can get a few hundred cars together for a meet, how about here in Texas.

Now I am sending a new thread to the Texas Forum because I see over 400 of you viewed the original thread, but didn't say hello or what part of town you live in,etc. I know some of the viewing traffic was picked up from other forum members (not from Houston) reading the post when it was a new thread.

Bo'sRT, on 300 forums and from Houston, was in the Impala club with me and it was alot of fun. We were talking about it the other night. How fun the people were, laughing, racing, modding, having our own club shirts, logo for the car,etc. When we had a monthly meetings, we would have over 50 Impala's in a restaurant parking lot, while we ate and had our meeting. It made it hard for other patrons to get in to eat, but they did get a mini car show on there way inside, for free,lol. We would leave our hoods up, cars on display, etc. Someone in the club was always on Impala security duty, while meeting was in progress. We also met at Vendors locations, Chevy dealerships, etc. for other monthly meets. We also raised money for charity with car washes with our favorite sponsors, Hooter's and the Hooter's girls all pitching in to wash our rides and the other cars pulling up for a car wash/donation. You could imagine the lines we would get for washes, and it wasn't for the Impala's either, lol. Although when over 100 cars, of the same make and model, are all parked in a row it makes a pretty impresive statement itself.

I would like try to get the Houston 300 owners together and talk shop, the 300, mods, monthly meetings, car shows, Houston raceway park, charity events, etc.

We need to start organizing the Houston 300's. SoCal and Miami 300 areas are gaining speed, monthly meets, car shows, drag strips,etc.

We had so much fun with the over 100 members of HAIL (Houston Area Impala Lovers) 94-96 only. That was only three years of production. This 300 should see a good long run of production. It is more fun to meet up with others that share your passion that to do the mods alone, e-mailing others too far too meet, etc. One thing that was great about the HAIL club is we used to do group install mods, on a weekend. Everyone showed up, food, drinks, etc.,cranked up some tunes and would pull one Impala up at a time and complete the mod as a group. By the end of the day, we were all greasy, the cars were done, we saved a bunch of $ on installation costs, etc. One mod weekend consisted of nothing more than a brake bleed, pad upgrade and installing firmer body bushings from chevy trucks. Our guys found every part in the world to help with our Impalas. We also made some great friends along the way. I still socialize and am good friends with other members from HAIL and most of us don't even have our Impala's anymore.

Let me know your thoughts, if interested, etc.

Pass this message on to other Houston area 300 owners you may know, but are not on the 300 C Forums, but should be.

My plan to go to the Big Meet and Greet in Cali fell through. Anything local still sounds good to me though. Let's do it!
