t3kg replied to the topic Re: First bell is ringing for the Classic in 2012 in the forum.Sounds like a great idea Jim, thanks for getting things started. So who else is planning on coming to the Classic this year? Let us know so we can get a head count. I'll start spreading the word to the 1500 Club and elsewhere. It would be great to get everyone together.

Jim Schield replied to the topic Re: First bell is ringing for the Classic in 2012 in the forum.How about the El Torito on Mac Arthur near the Crowne Plaza Saturday night? I know it's the "usual" spot, but the food was OK, and maybe we can group together with the 1500 club, and other type 34 folks.
Best regards,
Jim

One strange thing though, I was in the store for...

Bobnotch replied to the topic Re: Bumming! Hit and run dent to my T-34! in the forum.Agreed, that sucks.
Must have been a pretty tall vehicle (like a 4wd truck) to put the dents that high up though. Looks like either a door or a down tailgate got it. ...

Peacefulwarrior replied to the topic Re: Looking for a rear lid/boot S latch. in the forum.Bob,
I just got off the phone with the cutter and he can get the 316 Stainless Steel, so that is what I am going to go with.

Bobnotch, t3kg, Peacefulwarrior replied to the topic Re: Looking for a rear lid/boot S latch. in the forum.I'd like 1 in stainless steel please. Only because I live in a high humidity area, and regular steel will try to rust. I've had cheap stainless steel mirrors (from china) rust just sitting in my backyard. I have to prime sandblasted metal within 2 hours or it starts to re-rust. ...
