anmracing2 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Who here would like to go down to Tucson on a Sunday to visit a museum about cars.... Thats right, I said cars..... Go to our website and scroll down the home page. There is a picture of an old car by an old building. Click on the building.... That's the way I get people to see our site... Anyways, we could probably set up an appointment for a Sunday and cruise down there. It is an amazing museum with some very impressive cars, every one of them run too....We haven't been there for years and would like to check it out sometime, but we would need a roll call....Andrew*** EDIT *** BTW, click on the car in that picture and you can see some of the cars they have.....

Eddie44 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Sounds like a great trip but my next two are booked solid. I have a kid at UofA Law School so the trip could do double duty. I'm in if we do it in 3-4 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point Dan,Okie dokie, I'm gonna put it on the calander for March 12. That will be two weeks after the Sierra Vista DTC car show.... That should be good. I got a response from the webmaster and he said to let him know what Sunday we would like to be there. So, I'm gonna send him an email to let him know that March 12th. Let me have a show of hands of who can go that day. The more the merrier, you will be amazed at the collection.Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anmracing2 Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 Its on the calander for March 12. Hey Dewey, Let us know where to meet the Tucson crowd for lunch. I figure we would get there around 11:00-11:30ish. I'm gonna tell the museum guys that we'll be there around 1:00. Right after lunch.....Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewey Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Well, it's all up to you guys, I know there's a preference for a certain establishment, and there's one of those on Ina (don't think you want to come all the way onto my side of town), or was can do the 5 & Diner on Stone by the mall, which is where Southern Arizona Corvettes does their cruise nights.Just let me know.I'll let the SAC folks know, so that they could join us if they so desire (some of them are members here, but don't know exactly which ones).Once we figure where we want to eat, then I'll post directions and maps.

Guest UVETTYA Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 We'll prolly go with you Andrew. Although I hate driving I-10 to Tucson. Too many idiots. Is that the route you're planning?And that's March 19th, right?Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie44 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I don't know the numbers but there are some great backroad routes down to Tucson. Bryan should know the routes. We took it back from Tucson a year or so ago when we went to the missle silo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest UVETTYA Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 You can go out through Apache Junction on 60 to Florence Junction... then take 79 down to Orro (?sp) Valley. 79's a straight shot and your radar detector can see a long way ahead. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSeery Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Yeah, we'll see if Bryan can give us the hwy numbers...... Andrew Highway 87 south out of Chandler to Coolidge.

dewey Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 I sent an e-mail to S.A.C, and they were really receptive, so once you guys decide where for lunch and what times for lunch and the museum visit, I'll let them know.Dewey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anmracing Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Okay-we're hoping to reschedule this event for later in the spring/early summer. There are two other vette events that day so there's no shortage of things to do. We'll mull over a new date at the GB fest and see what works for more people. I guess we'll be kicked off the 'ACE event planning committee', huh? M~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
