    Dude, that sounds great!

    Just one problem: I want to see your VX AND your '73 Challenger! I wouldn't mind driving that beast...can you get a second driver to bring the Dodge to the meet?

    I even have that Saturday open, which is strange for a wedding photographer.

    I may have to visit Fabulous Newberg: "Gateway to Yamhill!"

    Great to hear you have that weekend open. As for the Challenger - I was thinking about that and... Yeah, the Dodge'll probably make it. It hasn't even been out of the garage yet this year. (Don't get wwwaaaayyy to excited, cuz it's not all that perfect, but a Petty Blue, 340, pistol grip 4speed, Rally car is cool anyway)
    If you don't first THINK THINK, you could end up in deep DO DO!

    Hey Eric, Mapquest says 2 hour and 22 minutes from Olympia, 138 miles.

    I'm game. Techy, what time is the show and what time would we need to be there so we can set up together?
    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    I verified that things are the same as last year. (That's why I didn't get back to ya right away)
    Show up about 10:00, that gives about an hour+ or so before the crowd start showing up (Gives us time to get setup, signed up,...). If we know you are coming, but a little later, I'll leave space for ya, so we can have our rigs together.
    It officially starts at 12:00noon, and goes till 4:00.
    We could probably go grab some Pizza or something afterwards if you guys are not in to much of a hurry to head back.
    I'm getting excited already!

    Any other Oregon VXers going to this meet? I'm heading down that way on Friday the 15th, to spend the day (and night) in Portland. Then I'll visit Newberg the next morning.

    It would be great to see some other northwest vehicross.info members!

    Just so you don't have to completly miss out, I found a picture of the Challenger from last year (when it was like... Mostly clean)!


    Also a picture of the 3 VX's at Burgerville USA on Friday Night before the Car show. Pictured left to right (Rowhard, Techy-D, JAFO)

    Derek, very nice, wish you had drove that but then I wouldn't have been able to do your cladding. I mentioned the Barrett-Jackson Auction that you have never watched. here is what a 1973 Dodge Challenger Coupe went for last year, not to say yours could sell for this much and you have how many cars hanging around your property. You might just want to do a search of their site to see what you have then maybe you will want to build that barn to put them in.

    Wowser - Yeah I'd be happy to sell mine for that!
    Maybe if I hold on to it and restore it I could retire early.
    I do need to build a nice shop where I can restore my babies. By the way it's in a garage, (just a small one and not in Newberg).
    Thanks again for the compliments.
