Jeffrey - Ahhh Mt. Horeb, use to work there a lot when I was little with my fathers construction company. If I remember right dont you have a bunch of little trolls or something in that town? What color is your TR? I remember a few years back a place called Capitol Corvette in Madison had a beautiful white TR there and sold it back in the area. If I am ever home in Dubuque sometime I will make the trip up to Mt. Horeb and we can get together.
Bob, Jack, Mike - I am still planning on being in town that last weekend in April. Probably coming in on a Thursday and leaving on a Monday. I have already talked with Bob and Jack on here and via email but just am wondering if you all want to get together to get something to eat (depending on the weather). It would be pretty cool to have a 308, 328, 348 parking arangement!! Let me know some good places either in the burbs or city you would like to get together. |

Jjstecher - I live near Mount Horeb, so about a twenty minute ride from Madison. Let me know if you're coming through and I'll try to show you around. We have some pretty roads around here. But, I'm on the road most of the day and working two of three Saturdays so it might be hard to arrange. |

John--I live about 6 blocks from Wrigley, and would be happy to meet up. Let me know if you need help getting tickets--got those too. I have a neighbor whose house has been on the market for a while (moved to Florida), and I'm going to look into renting his garage until it sells. I've only got one spot (other car isn't great, but indoors beats the street), and he has a double. Otherwise, I would definitely look for an indoor, private spot. Our streets our fine, but you know how these cars attract attention--especially a drunk baseball crowd. |

Jballmer - Where at in southern Wisconsin do you live? I am originaly from Dubuque Iowa and now live in Minnesota. I am fairly familiar with all of souther Wisconsin and just wanted to check in and see where you lived and maybe drop by some day.
Bob Campen and all other Chi-town area guys on this board I am possibly, barring not getting sent out of town on business, going to be in the Chicago land area the last weekend in April to spend some time with my younger brother who attends Loyola University and catch a few Cubs games. I was wondering first if any of you would like to get together with their cars and just hang out and BS, and two if there is anyone of you who would mind maybe watching after my car for the weekend while I am downtown (Dont want to park my baby on the street in Rogers Park!!), either that or if you know some where I can leave it that it will be sheltered. Let me know guys I would love to hook up with you all that weekend and see all your cars!! |

Jeffrey--There's an independent shop near me in the city that I'm trying to get more info on. They're called European Auto & Body, located about 2600 N. Lincoln. I know they've been around for a while, and I know that they do work on all the higher-end marques; Ferrari, Jaguar, Rolls, etc. Unfortunately, that's ALL I know for now. Word is they're good, but like I said...If you get in touch with anyone who may know, ask about it. In the meantime, I'm still asking around. |

Hey Mike. I'm in Chicago--near Wrigley--and will be receiving my '86 328 very soon. I can't wait. Hopefully the weather will cooperate... |
