west coast get together?

Yeah, Teby, you've been nodding out.  Go to Forums on the top tool bar, then click Directory, then Events, then West Coast Meet.  There ya go.

Teby, quit reliving that Berlin concert and get with the program!!! 

Teby, you ignorant slut!

SLO is coming up quick and Tour d'Hoe is in September!

Check out the EVENTS section.

Brother Kevin says hi.

Teby, Teby, Teby, what are we going to do with you??

Teby.  I suspect that you are not using the "All Topics" drop down from the "Forums" tab to review post on the SOC.  If you were, you would see all the post for all the sections of the SOC in the order they were posted and you would see the 2015 West Coast Meet thread which received a post yesterday.

I find it VERY useful and it's the only way I look at the SOC.

OK   HOTEL BOOKED AND I READY TO ROCK........  Thanks for wakeing my happy ass up!!    

 

TEBS  

 

 

But are Anand and Pat signed up?  They both said they were going to go, so I really hope so.

Troy, 

I'll definitely take a look at the calendar and see if I can make it. The big question is: am I invited? I haven't got a replica anymore.

 

Will you guys accept me if I drive my newly finished 356c? It is getting a 2132 cc "heart" right now at Willhoit's shop, so I hope it is back in time.

 

Would love to meet everyone here -- Teby had a blast last year!

 

Anand

 

Lol.  I'll just let everyone else reply to your acceptance question.  It's a different thing with Vince and Gerd, they aren't really accepted, just tolerated.

 

Anand, you wannabes are all alike. I don't know who you're trying to fool, but those of us who own replicas can spot the differences from a mile away.

 

Sure, anyone can just go out and buy a real 356, but you'll never know the pride of ownership and feeling of satisfaction that comes with driving a genuine replica.

 

Your restoration was a quick transaction and - boom - you're driving down the highway in a P-car. You'll never know the months and years of struggle involved in finding that perfect Chinese repop part or the agony of making it actually work. You'll never taste the tortured angst of making excuses for rattles and clunks, failing electrics, drips and sags in the paint, or bubbles in the chrome.

 

And while you may convince yourself that your car drives and feels like a genuine replica, in your heart there will always be those lingering doubts.

 

 

 

lol   loll  hey Sacto Mitch.....  very nice response But!!   Anand owned a very nice Beck Spyder that looked so real people thought it was...   and trust me he knows exactly what it feels like to own a replica...CAUSE IT WAS!!!.  lol   

 

also  it shouldnt take you months and years of struggle..  Call Terry Nuckels he knows people who know people and can get **** done quick!!   

 

hope to see you in San Louis

I saw Anand the other day driving his P-car to work. I almost pulled him over to give him a citation for driving with too big a smile on his face. I was going to have his car towed to my house for storage. 

 

Then I remembered I was in a cover car with no lights or siren in it.

 

 

Teby, I've been following Anand's exploits here and was just giving him a hard time. Anyone with as nice a car as that deserves some grief in his life.

 

Terry has indeed put me onto some great folks who have gradually transformed my car into something I can actually drive with confidence - even uphill.

 

Looking forward to meeting you and the rest of the left coast knuckleheads at SLO.

 

 

LOL LOL  Yes Mitch  we can discuss more over as nice cool Guinness!!!

 

oh and make sure you book a room at the quality suits  free beer 5-7 and Terry & kevin nuckles will cook you breakfast  LOL LOL 

 

see ya in San Louis

Mitch:

I don't know you, but I like you! You had me rolling with your response. AWESOME!

 

My replica was a 550 Spyder -- luckily Carey Hines built it and did a superb job, so the gremlins were minimal...but I did feel a sense of accomplishment by the time I sold it -- it was definitely the best air cooled car I have ever owned. 

 

This is what I love about the SOCers -- great people. 

 

Robert, it was a treat seeing you that day too! Getting pulled over by you would have been a great prank!!

 

I may have to show up just to be sure Teby doesn't get put in jail. If not, I'll have to ask Troy or Robert to watch him. He gets a little crazy!! 

 

Anand

No need to worry about Teby being uncontrollable this year.

I'm bringing the shock collar...
