[mistasherm]

Pottsville - a little further out...my mom grew up in Havertown.

[RickP]

I saw a yellow/black stripe roadster last night about 4:30pm turning left off of 100 heading towards pottstown. Anyone on this forum?

[RickP]

Yeah we do!

[caesarmascetti]

Maybe King of Prussia in Sept?

[RickP]

Better still. Valley forge park in September.

[caesarmascetti]

wow yup that would be cool

[Troy Johnson]

Two of us up here in Harleysville, PA building MKIV's. I'm just about finished with stainless brake lines, getting ready to run the fuel line next. If you want to see one in progress, your more then welcome to stop by. Troy

I live in Berwyn, so about 20 minutes away from West Chester. Currently completeing an MK4 I bought as a partial build in January. Let me know if people end up getting together, would love to meet up!

Amazing. Never thought I would hear the word Berwyn on this forum. I grew up on Coldstream Drive and attended Conestoga HS. Small world for certain. As soon as we get some decent weather, we should all plan a meet up somewhere. I had suggested VF park simply because ....., well, just because.

Wow small world, that's very close to me. Maybe we should find a time in the next few weeks after the floods subside for everyone interested on this thread to meet up, VF park seems good to me. I'll probably have my 10 year old Maxima to bring, unless you think I can get my cobra 10 miles as it currently stands?

If only our finest at the Tredyffrin PD didn’t mind..... when you get to the point of titling, I know a shop who will help you get through the process easily and quickly.

Will do. I hope to get it inspected in gelcoat in the spring/summer-ish period. I’ve been in touch with “Blast from the Past” which I believe is up in your area, but I’ll take any suggestions you have!

That's exactly whom I was going to recommend. Sounds like your on it. Dave will take care of you. I had my car on the road in less than 3 weeks from the day he came and picked the car up until the time I had my plates. He requires you to have windshield wipers but if your not planning on implementing them, just shout and you can borrow my setup in order to get past the inspection. Will save you a 140 bucks.

I'm in for a gtg at VF park depending on the date, my FF Roadster is at County Corvette being converted from Mass Flo FI, to a 600cfm QuickFuel carb

[RickP]

I'm down for a fall get together at VF park

[caesarmascetti]

count me in

[RickP]

how does Saturday 10/6 work for everyone? Thinking we could all meet at the big parking lot next to the valley forge chapel along rt. 23

That works for me. I’m probably the least important one though since I’ll be without roadster, so hopefully others can make it.

My car is in gel coat with no interior. Just will be fun to get together with those with similar interests. Roadster/no roadster, no worries. Personally, I’d love to see where your at in the build stage. I miss those go-kart days.

Not good for me I'll be up in Ct visiting my son, can we do Sunday 10/7?

[RickP]

10/7 is good with me

[CFranks]

I could probably make Sunday 10/7 work but would have to be morning. Does mid-morning around 10 work?

[caesarmascetti]

Are we still on for Sunday 10/7? At VF park

[RickP]

I'm in.....

[RickP]

A nice place to gather would be the wayne's woods picnic area close to the "Arch". If your not familiar where I am talking about, just google "wayne's woods valley forge picnic area" and it will map you right too it.

[caesarmascetti]

great around 10am?

[RickP]

great around 10am?

10:00am sounds good to me. I see you other post regarding a nagging oil leak. I'm dealing with the very same issue. I can share what I did, and what I have done to resolve it when we meet up.

[caesarmascetti]

cool that would be great

[CFranks]

great around 10am?

Works for me, i'll be able to hang out for an hour or so and then I have to go walk around a pumpkin patch. See you guys on Sunday!

[RickP]

Awesome .

Bump to see if anyone else will join us.

[RickP]

Looks to be pretty soggy out there this morning from where I’m sitting. Hoping the roads dry up some. Not looking promising fellas.

[caesarmascetti]

just checked the weather online no rain in the forecast at all, 0%-3% chance most of the day rising to 35% at 5pm. I'm still going let me know

[RickP]

I just need the roads to dry up a bit. If I am to get there by 10, I would need to leave by 9. I’m going out in just a bit to what the road conditions are like.

no worries, not so bad here in west chester, just got back from WaWa....my neighbors must hate me :-)

[RickP]

I just got back from a drive around here in Boyertown. Just too darn wet here and the low level clouds aren't helping matters. I would need a couple of hours for things to dry up. At least dry up enough where I am not driving through washed roads. Rained pretty hard here last night.

[RickP]

Leaving B-Town now, ETA 10:30

[RickP]

So nice meeting new friends today. Nothing better than some car talk and looking over what is what. Even better a "spirited" run down yellow springs rd. I could do that all day long.

[caesarmascetti]

nice meeting you guys today, maybe next Sat if it's nice there's a great cars and coffee early around 830-9am in west chester, Craig I can pick u up great cars show up McLarens Prsche Ferrari and usually a Cobra replica or two, an LS powered Miata really a cool mix

then off to check out Craig's go kart

[CFranks]

Good meeting you guys too. Ironically, the only car trouble we had was with my modern daily driver (my battery was dead after you guys left!).

Next sat sounds good.

[RickP]

Next Saturday sounds like fun. See how the week shapes up. Craig, sorry to hear you had battery problems. I had a jump starter in my toolbox ready to used.

[caesarmascetti]

crap Craig that sucks sorry I left so quickly now

[CFranks]

hey man count me in see you around 12 noon

[Overtaking]

Hey guys, I am in Newark, DE, a half mile from the Southern Chester County line. This thread has some years on it but I just came into the Cobra community this spring with an unfinished Mk4 for sale (from within the family). Does anyone have a buddy that admires your car and wants to finish building one? Chassis is complete (running), needs all body work & paint.
