May 3, 2014. SW Wisconsin Neon Meet

chipdogg · Post by **chipdogg** » Thu Feb 27, 2014 9:06 pm

May 3, my place in Muscoda, Wisconsin. About an hour west of Madison, hour north of Dubuque. Any Neon owners, former owners, future owners, friends, or if you swear to never own one, come on by!

A little later this year, hopefully the snow is gone this time!

Let's start it around 10 am. Sloppy joes again, chips, soda, etc. Shop will look a bit different this time, will hopefully have a few more goodies by then.

I'd say we can go for a cruise but that never happens! Bring stuff you wanna sell, install, or bring cash for what others will have.

Looks like the cat is out of the bag now! Thanks Jake for posting this- now I can turn in the vacation request sheet that has been sitting all week in the front seat of my work vehicle. I've already got my maps drawn up and motel reservations made. C'mon May!

My son and I will be driving out in his '02 ACR. Is good that it's a bit later this year, aside from obvious reasons. I should be back from my Easter trip to Texas the weekend before.

Do it and save 150 so I don't have to build a crate! I'd rather sandblast a case than ship a trans!

Awesome I'll save the date. Racecar won't be done but I'll come up in my daily again. I'll bring a few sample pieces again of powdercoat work if anyone wants anything done.

Probably have to drive up again. Fun watching Gramps install parts. Maybe drive my "new" work car. Sold my 05 Neon and bought a 12 Avenger. Trying to save some miles on the SRT, going to be a busy summer.

Glad that my "all-thumb-ness" provided entertainment for everyone the last time.

Thank goodness I had you, E. J. and Nick to show me what to do.

This would be fun if I can get my SRT-4 finished by then. The engine is in about a million pieces right now.

You should plan to attend even if your car isn't ready- fun is guaranteed.

black03rt · Post by **black03rt** » Tue Mar 04, 2014 11:52 am

My R/T isn't very reliable at the moment either tho. So don't really have a car to get there.

Midnight_Rider · Post by **Midnight_Rider** » Tue Mar 04, 2014 11:54 am

Anyone that he could hitch a ride with?

Post by **occasional demons** » Tue Mar 04, 2014 12:19 pm

You could pick him up on the way.

You'd better!

dblsg · Post by **dblsg** » Sun Mar 09, 2014 4:38 am

And depending on funds, I might take both neons... downside to that, I loose my DD

Midnight_Rider · Post by **Midnight_Rider** » Sun Mar 09, 2014 8:32 am

^^Really? Explain about losing the DD, I didn't follow that.

Designated Driver

Jake, are you thinking of Sloppy Joes again? They sure were good.

chipdogg · Post by **chipdogg** » Fri Mar 21, 2014 1:07 pm

Yup, for sure.

Well as of yesterday I will not be attending the meet. The trucking company I work for is having the annual safety banquet that night. And with me being the shop manager I have to attend unfortunately. I was hoping to make this meet I was even planning on doing something real neat with my powder coat work to show off some things for anyone that was interested. Maybe I can catch the next one. SORRY Gramps

Midnight_Rider · Post by **Midnight_Rider** » Fri Mar 28, 2014 9:10 pm

^^Darn it. Understand your having job responsiblities though. There's always the fall meet (if Jake has one).

chipdogg · Post by **chipdogg** » Sun Mar 30, 2014 12:10 pm

What time is the dinner thing? You can always come for a while and head out early, Ft. Atkinson is only ~2 hours from here.

esteinmaier · Post by **esteinmaier** » Sat Apr 05, 2014 1:03 pm

I'll see what I can do to make it. I know I say that every time, but something always comes up that's more important than fun.
