SRS Springtime get together??

This location is just a couple of miles from my house. The idea was brought up on another link about a few members perhaps getting together,spend a day walking thru the old place and then doing dinner after.
Deb and I would like to extend an invitation to all who like to come. What I propose is we meet here at our house,I can show you folks where this place is located,then after we are done checking the cars out,meet back here for beer and BBQ. All I ask is,YOU guys pick the day,and let me know how many are coming,we will handle the rest. I can get in touch with the sons selling the cars, and try to make arrangments for them to be there to let us in. Deb and I will provide the food and drink afterwords. Sound like a plan to you guys??? Let me know what you think.

I think it's a great idea. Sounds like a whole lot of fun.

I'll throw my 2 cents in for a date, how does Sat April 26th sound? Everyone else thats planning on attending can throw in dates then we can vote on which one?

For you Tom, I'd be willing to "pay" a nickel, as long as you cleared it with the wife! :)))

If I can dig out of the white stuff before August..and depending on the date, I MIGHT swing it...got a full plate of car shows/cruises/charity events (tired of payin $10 for some club to charge $5 to let people come look at MY car so I'm doin' events that I know where the money goes to) this year.

Pick the date, and if im free, I'm there if I'm in one piece, mobile and breathing.

Being two states away, and this far in advance, I can't make any promises, but it does sound like fun. I'll let you know when the time gets closer.

The FREE BEER got my attention !!!! Although April is a little early for me....it is right in the rainy season and the weather is too unpredictable. I am for a latter date if possible. June or July (?). Just a thought. As the time gets near I should be able to commit....can't be sure at this time......sounds like a good idea.

I'm in. I like rainy spring weather, the weeds are all flattened from the snow yet. So should i bring Moby Dick, the great white van, with all the tools and instruments of destruction?

Just in case anyone wants to know,we are located minutes north of Mansfield Ohio. Mansfield is approx. 1 hour south of Cleveland and 1 hour north of Columbus. Pretty easy to get to. If you folks buy any tin,I have some room outside to park it till you can retrieve it later,if need be. Just let us know how many and when :))

I'm game! How about May? Any weekend but the 3rd one. So tell me, do you know how much is left out there, and, what range the prices are? I'm intending on buying if it's not too over priced. My old man needs a project! O'h yea, beer and Bar BQ are reason enough! I'm guessing this will be a 7 hour trip? How far from Pittsburg are ya?

I'm sure I'll try to be there as it's only an hour away. I'll also be more sure as the date draws nearer. Rain would not make me happy as I hate getting my poncho caught on old tin.
Seven hours is close for the whole trip to and from Pitt. About 3 &1/2 each way. If I remember you'd come West on the pikes too around Youngstown and then take 224 west too 71 South. Maybe 3 hours each way that way...Frank

slick, you can count on the SRS gang being there. May would be better for us. The weather will be better also. Pls don't make it May 3rd.

I'd love to come meet everyone and poke around those cars. I could spend all day in there. April is good for me. Like enjenjo said, the weeds are still packed down from the snow and the new ones haven't grown yet. You can see a lot more that way. But I'll probably show whatever the date.

April also sounds good to me. Once May gets here the weekend schedule gets pretty crazy.

Alright, but please not the 11-13 of April. That's opening weekend for Trout fishing, and I got a big trip planned. What about the weekend after Easter?
