SVX Dream

Good Morning all you SVXers out there in SVXland,

I awoke this morning with a big smile on my face and I still feel great. We went to bed last night about 11:30 after giving candy to all the little costumed trick or treaters.
Last night, I had a dream that we were at an SVX Meet.
From what I remmember, the meet took place in the center of a city, in a high rise hotel somewhere in Ohio. The hotel had an underground parking garage full of SVXes About 50-55 SVXes showed up.

The most interesting thing was the 2 SVX convertibles. One had the spoiler in front of the front door by the windshield post. It tapered back to act as a roll bar over the front seats.
(Hey I said it was a dream. Things dont have to make sense.)
I remember more about the second SVX convertible. This car had the spoiler over the rear seats, It looked like a Targa bar. When I saw this SVX, there were 4 people in it and the top was down.

I'll be walking on air all day.

One of them didn't happen to be EARL by any chance. (He may have struck again)

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

<grin> Awesome dream, Larry... and if there's a meet in Ohio anytime soon I'm sure I can cruise over that way...

As for a convertible SVX... nice idea... impractical. To bring your dreams crashing to Earth; the structural rigidity of the SVX without a roof just isn't there. It would take an awful lot of reinforcement across the bottom of the car to make it happen and still be driveable. It would be cool for show, but I definitely wouldn't want to try to drive it!

Sorry to be the bummer there, mate... but hey, even dreams need to be tempered by reality a little. Now... where did I put my sawzall?

I had an SVX dream last night also. I was in Houghton MI, going to pick up my car. It still wouldn't run. They couldn't figure it out. So i had to pay $250 to get it towed to the nearest subaru shop, and then they worked on it for another day. When I got it back, it ran, but the transmission was dying, and they said they'd need another $2500 for the center diff. Then I noticed that they replaced my front drivers side tire with an older tire that was so bald I could see the metal wire in it. I was pissed off, and I knew they were trying to screw me over, and that they had broken my car. I went to court, but the Judge just listened to me, didn't ask any questions, and said "We'll let you come back to court when you've prepared your case" and I said "I thought I was supposed to come with knowledge about the situation, and you were supposed to ask me questions to realize what a bunch of cheating scumbags those two are!", pointing at the repair shop owners. Then she started cackling at me, and I was SOOOO pissed off! I went and talked to my dad about it, and he told me that Steven Dorff was the person to talk to. Yes, the movie star. He had started to form a crime empire up in the U.P and parts of canada, and he could 'make them an offer they couldn't refuse' so to speak. I knew they were all going to die, and I was glad.

Then, after that, I knew I had to get to this air force base, so I was taking this really fast train to get to it, it was pretty cool, I think it was the Zephyr. Anyway, once I got to the station, I knew what I had to do. The speaker at hte airforce base was this pretty blonde woman, and I knew she was the enemy. Suddenly, I was more like Solid Snake/Rambo, and I crawled all the way through this thick section of weeds between the blonde girl (who was speakign to a large audience on bleachers) and the audience, and I started assembling my sniper rifle. I put the tip of the barrel out of the weeds, and pulled the trigger, and... man... that was nasty. But then I realized that it wasn't the right thing to do, so instantly she was alive and fine and I realized that I must have just 'thought' about shooting her. So then the marines started to attack me, and she joined up on my side, and we fought them off, and ran into these tunnels. The tunnels were going under Lake Superior, and the blonde girl turned into an even more attractive brunette: Kristin, my wife. So we were going in these tunnels under the ice of lake superior, and the stairs started to go up, so we went up, and we came up right inside an old jeep. I guess it was FDR's jeep, and he almost bit it by driving on the ice up there, and it was like a monument to him.

So yeah, there was my dream.

- Rob

Earl,

I hate to disappoint you, but you were not in the car in my dream. It was 2 young couples.
The car looked like the picture that you posted except that the car in my dream was a pearly with a black trunk like and a black
targa type spoiler over the rear headrests.
Also the trunk lid was in 2 parts. I think that's because the convertible top folds down into the front section of the trunk. Even though I never saw the top up on either pearly convertible SVX in my dream, in my heart I know that the tops were black.

SVX Convertible

Larry:

Only prob with the convertible idea is that you'd lose the side windows...

I had an SVX nightmare last night, I dreamed my SVX ran away. I had to put up flyers with her picture and "have you seen this subaru" on it.

A few nights ago I dreamed that my cat got in a wreck and caught on fire, so maybe my bad dreams got mixed up.
