    There is plenty of parking at 7 AM as most businesses are closed.

    Come one come all so long as you are an exotic car lover.

    I don't have a car list. I will be there in my 308.

    Thanks again Sco for the heads up. Doubt I'll make it, but if I do I'll be in my A3.

    yes sir.. 68 pro touring car.. air ride and a compete LQ4 6.0 with a 4l80 trans drive train out of a 2500hd truck with a few mods done... its just my "cruise to sonic on Saturday for a chocolate malt " car The best thing about it is that it starts up and runs like a new car. I also have ac and digital gauges for it that i just haven't put in yet.

    Shop is 10 ft ceiling. I also built it myself and did it with the thought of having a 4 post lift. The lift has caster so I can move it around in the shop if i choose to. I have the center of my chop cut out for "friends" cars that are taller so that is around 14 ft tall.

    Sounds good to me.. I BBQ every Saturday night after the local sonic car show.. usually fiatas or something like that. One of the last times I had a few friends over we had something like 12000 hp in the driveway..so cars around here is nothing new.

    Now..ill warn you.. I do live in the country.. so.. be prepared..

    Ok let's have a competition........ what does "live in the country" mean to you? My country home, our ranch, is 4.5 miles up a gravel and dirt road halfway between Centerville and Jewett, Texas. It is in the boonies!

    I've invited a couple of fchat guys up and I always laugh when they say, "Oh thanks, I'll bring the <insert exotic car name>." My response is always the same, "Uh no, you are not. You're driving your old piece of sh.. chevy or your kids pickup but you are not bringing the <insert exotic car name here>." Our ranch can best be described as an elegant rustic resort. Frankly it is beautiful. But our road? It is a dirt and rock path at best.

    Pretty country up there. I am sure your place is gorgeous. Probably a nice getaway from the city, and a fairly quick drive to get there!
