This year's Reading Meet
 
Anyone have any plan for a Reading SVX Meet this year? I know that I would like some Italian pastry.:D

Is there going to be a Reading meet this year or not? I want to go. John, Randy let's get together on this. How about mid-May?

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
How does Saturday, May 20 sound? It only takes consensus from a few of us to put it on the map. Previous weekend is Mother's Day and will exclude many, but the 20th should be doable.

Sounds good to us . We will be there. Have you heard from John?

Not in the past few days, but I am supposed to be stopping by to see him soon, so I will def. let him know and help to get his car ready for the trip.

Bumping this up to remind myself as much as anyone else. I am going to try and stop in.

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
That makes 3 of us for this years Reading SVX Meet. Come on everyone let's get the show on the road. We need more SVXes & SVXers.

LarryIII 05-15-2023 11:01 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
The Reading Meet is scheduled for this Saturday ( May 20th). At this point only SVXit and myself are confirmed. I don't want to let this meet die but I also don't want to go if there are only 2 of us. Please, please, please people post that you will definitely come.

PS: No offense Olu.

Larry,

I was really looking forward to taking a drive out there, regardless of the price of gas.:eek: But my transmission is acting up and I haven't had time to get it looked at. I sure don't want to get stranded somewhere. :(

Maybe in the fall we can schedule and "encore"...

Missing all my SVX friends. And my SVX. :( Have fun if you go!

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Would love to, but I have a double header of points races this weekend. Say hello to everyone for me please!

SvXit 05-16-2023 09:36 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Larry, not looking good, maybe we postpone until a later date? I'm all for something in June, as I'd hate for you and Rosie to come all that way for such a small meet.

LarryIII 05-16-2023 09:53 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Olu,

OK let's do it in June. Have you been with John?

Ron Mummert 05-16-2023 10:34 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
It's just too far for to me to take the semi-pristine '92 on 13 year old tires. Plus too much else going on with life. BTW - the barely used beauty is for sale. You NEED an ebony, Larry. :cool:

Not yet, he was planning to attend Reading. Will most likely see him before we all meet for Reading.

Dear God, Ron, that's waaay too long on the tires; should be five or six years max! :eek: No matter, would love to see you at one last Reading with your car if you can make it in June!

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Ron,

Olu is right,,, get new tires & I do not need another SVX, I'm getting too old (79) for all of these plus the Viper. Let's set a new date, say June 17th or 24th. Most graduations should be over by then. How about everyone comment.

wdb 05-18-2023 06:30 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
I'll be tentative for June dates too. I live nearby.

I can do the 17th, hopefully others can chime in. Cannot do the 24th, but 17th is fine. Larry, please bring your '97 if you can. It has dawned on me that the last time I saw another Bordeaux Pearl '97 was the last time you brought it to Reading that I can remember, maybe 2005 or '06.

Following along from the other coast. I hope everyone who gathers this year has a great time.

LarryIII 05-31-2023 10:34 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Svxit, The 17th sounds good to us. I'll bring Subydoo, the '97. I have to get the BBS wheels installed, which I bought from Earl's son.
Then I have to get the car cleaned up & order Italian pastry. :D

Earle's cars and/or parts are literally spread all over the country! We look forward to seeing you all there.

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
I haven’t on lately is the meet June 17 in Morgantown? I might stop in, no SVX for me but I’ll enjoy seeing yours.

LarryIII 06-01-2023 09:37 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
This year's SVX Reading Meet will held on June 17th at the Morgantown Holiday Inn. Everyone is welcome no mater what they are driving.

LarryIII 06-07-2023 05:20 PM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Yesterday I had the BBS wheels installed on Subydoo. But nothing ever goes easy with an SVX. The stock lug nuts would not fit and the tire store did not have the mini nuts with the correct thread, so I went to an Advanced Auto store and bought the proper nuts. Driving back to the tire store, I was stopped at a light on a main route and some guy pulls out of a strip mall in a Jeep Cherokee and tries to go around behind me. His right rear fender well caught my rear bumper. Now Subydoo's rear bumper has jeep rubber on it and needs to be compounded & repainted. Needless to say I'm pretty ticked off. We exchanged info and went our merry ways.
I'm still bringing Subydoo to the Reading Meet.

Larry, I'll bring my detailing equipment with me. As long as we can find and electrical connection somewhere, I will do my best to sort it out. I have a half decent amount of skill and have gotten some pretty bad scrapes off of cars in the past; I'll be honored to at least have a go at it and see how much better it can look than it is now.

LarryIII 06-10-2023 10:49 AM

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Svxit,

No need to bring your equipment. I compounded it by hand yesterday and took off all of the rubber from the Jeep. The paint is chipped and cracked. The bumper needs repainting. I'll need to contact my ins. company.

Hadn't been on for a while....had a hip replacement about 5-weeks ago, but getting back to myself....

June is the month of the Dragon Meet, (23rd-25th)which I've been hosting for 21 years now, so I can't make it to the Reading meet, but hope you all have a good time....and hope some of you will make it down to the Dragon Too!

Huck,

You will be fully healed when you can get out on the dance floor and do the twist followed by a really mean cha cha.

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Apologies for the late notice! There is a car show in Oley on the same day. Pretzel City Rod & Custom car club is putting it on. I'm going to head there first, and then pop over to Morgantown to say hi.

Re: This year's Reading Meet
 
Small though it was, this year's Reading Meet was still great fun. Thank you kindly to wbd for allowing my little guy to crawl in and out of the Caterham; it was the highlight of the day for him. And thank you to Larry & Rosie for bringing their '97, as well as Melissa & Dave for bringing their laguna blue.

I was hoping one of the more prolific and talented photographers would post up. Here's the only picture I took.
