Gramps are you going to be driving your srt4 in the Salt roads..?
No. Nor will I drive it in the rain until after it goes into the body shop on April 2nd.

Yes, I saw it on the weather radar. But it is supposed to warm up this coming week and the rain is supposed to be only in the middle of the week.

And there you have it, the rain will wash the roads.

Yes it sure does look like there will be at least 8 maybe 10 or so people there. Couple of people not on the forum are going to be there.

Once again, the forecast has thwarted me. I will be so glad to have this rust issue addressed next week. Have a good meet, folks!

All neons have rust issues, it was a standard option.

Well Gramp’s, you missed out today.

We had a lot of people show up, and only a drizzle of rain.

As it turned out, the forecast here was incorrect. Unless I had stayed too long in Dayton, I might have been able to make the trip rain-free but all I had to go on were the local and NWS forecasts. Perhaps things will work out better for the next meet there- I'll try again. Sorry that I missed seeing everyone and glad that you had a good turnout.

2-4 inches of snow in the I-70 corridor are being predicted for late Sunday so what would normally be a two hour drive southwest to the body shop early Monday morning may take longer and not be dry. Too bad that I couldn't have dropped the car off at the body shop today but that wasn't possible.

Gramps! I can't believe you missed this meet. Best turnout I've seen since we have been meeting up. Thanks to the Michigan guys it was a good meet. Here's some pictures for you.
We also didn't eat at the Red Robin because when we got in there they said it was an hour wait. So we drove over to Buffalo Wild Wings and ate there, it was just down the road from Red Robin. ImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Oh but of course the time I cant go and everyone desires they are going. Lame.ImageImage
Thought that you weren't going to be able to make it. As I posted before, it's too bad that things didn't work out for me yesterday but I had no way of knowing how the weather was going to turn out.

I wasn't going, originally. But I then figured what the hell and threw on the summer wheels and met up with Dj and we went to the meet.

My original plan was to have the neon in the garage on jack stands and be working on it this weekend but weather is still too cold to be working in the unheated garage. So I'm waiting a few more weeks until we finally get warmer weather to start on it.

This weather lately is terrible around here as you know. As of about 3 hours ago its snowing here again and will be tomorrow. But yet Tuesday it's suppose to be up to 70 and back down to 40 next day. Winter seems to not want to leave this year.

Same here. Tuesday near 70, heavy rains, and back into the 40's for highs for the next 10 days.
