Has this been thought of? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72 CustomCamper · 01-06-2003, 03:06 AM

I thought it would be cool to hafe a sort of reunion. Get a bunch of members and their trucks to have a get together in their state. Could pick a nice weekend and meeting place, have a group pic taken to post on the board, and just sit around and swap stories and look at each others trucks.

72 Custom Camper, I have met a few of the board members around here. I have an annual truck show usually late august early september. Had a few members show up this past year. Lot of nice and good people on here. If you are ever up this way stop in. Bill

Old Chevy Lover · 01-06-2003, 02:47 PM

I would be up for it! Although, I would have to haul my truck to the show since its still in the early stages.. hahahaha.. I 'hope' to have it drivable by early summer, but we all know how that goes...

70 longbed · 01-06-2003, 03:13 PM

Pickupman,

Coming out that way, Fort Belvoir, the end of the month to do some work. Actually I make it out there several times a year. Would like to meet up with you and see what is around for parts in your area.

Crank · 01-06-2003, 05:47 PM

Well hopefully I'll have a drivable truck later in the school year, so if it's not too far away and is later in the year I'm down for it too. If I come though, you guys will have to be diggin my rust bucket??? K? Please? lol.

72 CustomCamper · 01-06-2003, 05:55 PM

Hey Bill, I've been meaning to get up your way and check your stuff out. You're only about an hour away, but it seem like something always comes up.

Chuck

>X< · 01-06-2003, 07:33 PM

hey magoo72, where is minden la? i'm, right outside baton rouge

67cst · 01-06-2003, 07:43 PM

Longhorn Man · 01-07-2003, 12:34 AM

Well, last year in August, there were a hand full of us gathered at Huck's house near louisville Ky...he said he was plannin on making it an anual event.
I know I plan on swinging by there. The service is great out there. Here they are replacing my fan and fan clutch. I am behinde the camera nice and clean. Mr Huck was even bleading after the work he did. (I coulda done it myself...but they wouldn't let me)

da-burb · 01-07-2003, 12:53 AM

You mean like this? Pigeon Forge Tenn 2001

da-burb · 01-07-2003, 12:55 AM

Or Pigeon Forge Tenn 2002?

da-burb · 01-07-2003, 12:58 AM

and lastly the wives and/or significant others of Pigeon Forge 2002. Which by the way, I am not too sure is a wise thing. I think they were up to something................

Michael12 · 01-07-2003, 01:11 AM

Just woundering if anyone is in Colorado area?

-Michael

72 CustomCamper · 01-07-2003, 01:12 AM

Yeah thats the idea, I would like to meet as many members as I can. The only member I know right now is 72Blazerman, and I've known him for quite a few years.

Chuck

Hooter · 01-07-2003, 04:12 AM

I believe we should have a B.C washington state Idaho meet 2nd weekend in June at the Kootenay cruise in Castlegar. Who's in?

DarkFox1 · 01-07-2003, 08:38 AM

that sounds like a good idea but uh.. give me about 3 years to finish my truck 1st lol

JJ · 01-07-2003, 11:52 AM

Hooter, where is Castlegar? I'm gonna be up in BC that week at Brentwood Bay, it will give me an excuse to take the truck north.

nitor · 01-07-2003, 02:15 PM

I'd like that, but my truck is in Missouri right now. When I get it here, I'll see you there.
