ATLANTA/GA-area Bronco invasion at The Varsity

[Mac2Night]

Okay, so we've been organizing this on another thread that phred started back before Christmas (phred I hope you don't mind my trying to organize this a little):
http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131409, but I wanted to make it obvious that we were all gathering this coming Saturday, February 21st in midtown Atlanta at the "world famous" Varsity drive-in at around 2pm - until!

So far I have PMed the following board members (daveweil1, Lakeman77, Jesus888, Krowens76, gabronco74, tshep911, tabasocjrc, codeeB, jdeit, bfoldy, Bronco26, evil69, willtel, jbharve3, a74ranger, rednck21, kelvindodd, roundhouse, MattyB4x4, metalman0521, curry76, Scotts77, and 71HLFCAB) with a confirmed response from about 10+ and I have yet to hear from over half of these folks. If you see that I missed someone from the ATL/metro area/or anywhere in GA, please forward this info on to them. The more the merrier.

Rain or shine! Let's try to park on the upper parking deck (lots of space and we can see our trucks from the upper seating area while we eat (if it's raining we can always park under the parking deck on the ground level and eat our onion rings and chili dogs while talking EBs even if it rains).

Look forward to seeing you all this Saturday!

Good job Mac. Heck yeah, the more we post stuff about the gathering the better. Looked last night for the mirrors and I must have given them all away. Sorry pal!
I'll bring the door panels and if you like them cool, if not back into storage.

See ya on the upper deck saturday!!

 

[Mac2Night]

That reminds me, if any of you that are planning to join us have any extra parts laying around (I am looking for one door mirror, some stock door panels, chrome headlight rings, and other odds and ends), bring them with you on Saturday and we might be able to do some swapping or add a couple of dollars to your wallet. Sound good?

Mac, you just have to rub it in;D

 

[evil69]

Sorry I can't make it. Maybe I should quit work and work on Obama's second election commitee.


Just sucks to keep missing them. Maybe you guys should come to the foreclosure action and buy some houses.......

I can think of Cutts (fishman or something) and Broncosforfun77 or something. And Mountainguy, haven't seen much of him lately.

Sorry guys, if circumstances were different I would come, but I have sold my Bronco and it is leaving tomorrow . Talking Broncos is the last thing I want to do this weekend. I still can't believe it.

 

[NGABronco]

Hey Scott, I know it's not what you really wanted to do, but kudos for doing what you "needed" to do. You'll have another EB.

Good luck with your business!!;D ;D

Sucks man, but there will be another for ya down the road.

Next year... Man I am tired of saying that for events this year.. Only 5 hours form me..

 

[bfoldy]

I will be there, but will be without Bronco. No top, doors, tailgate, and most importantly...no brakelights. I'm looking forward to seeing some other Broncos and meeting everyone though.

I finally made it out at 9pm. I got the plug wires and breather, got em put on and it wouldnt start. Tried to jump it off but still wouldn't start. I called USAA at 5:30pm, took 3 hours to get a tow truck. I did enjoy the chili cheese slaw dogs and all the broncos. Thanks to everyone for all the help.

 

[Mac2Night]

Dave, we are all truly sorry for all your troubles today, but I'm glad to hear you got home safely.

It was a great turn out and the weather was perfect. Phred (Brett will be sending me some photos to post, so I will get them up soon). For those of you who missed it, we had (12) Broncos and 20 or so members/families join us for about 3 hours of hanging out and talking EBs (and of course some chili dogs and onion rings).

Sounds like we will be making this a regular gathering, but we may head north on I-75 up to the "Big Chicken" area of town (Marietta) the next go around in March or April (yep, I am already to get everybody together again)! ;D

Thanks for everyone making out today!

Hey guys, sorry I missed it. I did have fun though. I posted a thread about the show. Went out for a smoke and spotted a really slick red EB Sport in the parking lot, Cobb tag, I left a card, any body from the cruzin???

 

[phred]

Dave,
Glad you got home safe. Glad the fire was not any worse. It did get the attention of a few people in the drive-in area though. The guy running out the door with a 5 gallon bucket of water was hallarious.
Lot's of good looking trucks. Jeromy (hope I spelled that right) You had the silver uncut rig with a soft top and door inserts right? I didn't get a chace to look your truck over tell me a little about it.


I'm have a terrible time remember peoples names so if everybody that was there will post up your real name, screen name and which truck you drove. It will help us old guys put names with faces and trucks.

I'm phred (Brett) with the red and white 74 with blacked out trim.

Looking forward to seeing you guys next month!!!!!

What'll You Have

I've got a few good pics but I'm not a contributor yet. Anyone got an email address I can send it to. If you look close you can see the flame damage on my green trail rig..

 

[bfoldy]

Dave,

I can post the pics for you. I'll send you a pm with my email address.
