Man,
What a beautiful day today!
The sun out, no clouds, and the mid 80s! Finally, no rain! You would swear that Jan Larsson was out here on the West Coast! Oh ya, he was! :lol: :roll:
So, needless to say, I just had to bring out the 20th to play around abit! I had almost forgot how much fun it is!! My car's first outing, since last November!
I must have drove about 10 miles, but used up almost a quarter tank of gas! :shock:
I guess my foot was floored the whole time! I don't remember, I was busy smiling the whole time! And blasting my music!! :D
Anyone else out driving their's??

Loving Northern Arizona,

George :twisted:
 
My friend I have been doing the same out here in miami. Today it started to rain so I guess I have to put her away until the rain stops. I must say that I have been driving mine alot. I don't take the porsche out the much anymore, because nothing beats my tta. I love it to death!!!! Enjoy the great weather.
 
I hate you 2! Salt snow and ice here! Freezing temps !@##$@@#@# Well anyways the TTA is nice and comfy in my 65 degree garage :) at least it won't catch a chill! First day of spring is in 2 weeks and I can't wait till this crap is over and I can drive mine!!! :D
 
Hope for a nice day in the UK tomorrow, picking up my TTA after my custom made sub frame connectors been installed ... I hope there is no rain :-) Can't wait to feel/hear the difference !

George, we'll take yours for another spin later this month I hope :-)
 
Hi Jan!
Just don't bring the rain!!!!! :roll: :wink: :D
I'm hoping to show you some sites which are pretty cool out here too!

have a good one,

George :twisted:
 
Rain, what rain ? Last time a saw some rain was in LA :-)

Nice and dry day today, perfect when I pick up my TTA later this afternoon .... sub frame connectors YES !!!!
 
George,
It is good see your posts here. It was in the 80's last week in the Sacramento area. This week it cooled down to the 70's. Every thing is in full bloom and my kid's allergies are killing them.

I will be putting the Pace Car in the Towe Auto Museum next weekend for the month of April. They are having various club displays in the area. So April is the Trans Am club display.

Hi Dave!
This week has been in the 60s-70s too. Last week was in the mid 80s as well.
Jan is coming out next week to work and visit, and it looks like he will be bringing the rain from England with him! :lol:
We are suppose to get rain starting this Sat, thru Sunday, with the next storm coming in next Tuesday!
Congrads on your car being used! Uh, which one? :wink:
Sounds cool for April being Trans Am display!
So, how's your display of 20th TTA stuff? Have you displayed anything up there were you live? Garage full of posters and such?
I'm out of room down here!
Two cars in the garage, as well as 13 glass display cases full of stuff! Only the framed ads are up, as I am out of room for the posters!
Time to add onto the garage! :roll:

have a good one,

George :twisted:
 
Thanks for visiting the area again Jan. I was going to have to water the lawn soon otherwise. I did have to water the flowers out front today. I couldn't wait.

Lon
 
Hi Lon, we have to hook up next time I'm in LA .... maybe I can pick up the TTA wonderbar from you then :-)

George, just got in to Phoenix .... nice weather but nothing like I remember it ;) Does not look to be any better specially up North where you live :-) See you end of the week, I'll give you a call !
 
Hi Jan!
Looking foward to your visit!
Got everything hidden, at least the 20th TTA stuff! :wink:
Got out the rain gear, cause it always seems to rain when you stop by! :wink: Now, just leave that English weather with you behind!
Hey, are you also visiting the Halls? I think you said the one son was out there! Did everyone else move yet?
Lisa says "Hi"!

Call away!

George :twisted:
 
What you mean hiddef .... I thought you gladly been boxing up all the stuff and have it ready for me to load and bring with me :-) Ha I'm sure you have a few bits I can do with ....

Nothing from the Hall's, the son is married and been out here for about 2 years now. The parents as far as I know are ready to move out here but have not heard anything from them for some time....

Talk to you later

Jan
 
Jan,
Don't worry, I got a whole 22 foot box truck full for you! Just buy it all, and take it with you! Ha!
Next month is a Pontiac powered only car show where you are at! I may go, haven't decided yet!
Also next month, here in Kingman, is a car show, which I will be at!
So, did you bring all the good stuff I wanted? :wink:
Look for cars where you are at, I've got tons of room here!

Have a good one,

George :twisted:

Jan, I don't know what good that plastic & aluminum TTA Steering Brace prototype would be. Sadly I think that project is stillborn. I had mounting pads roughly halfway done, but I don't have access to a mill any longer to finish them. Regardless, after I re-designed the 105021 Steering Brace to use laser-cut pads I decided if I ever manufacture a TTA brace I'll have the mounting pads laser-cut for it as well. There are several obstacles in the way of that though. 1) the higher cost of getting pads programmed and laser-cut. 2) time to redesign it to be laser-cut. Unfortunately, I have a tough time keeping existing products in stock. It leaves little time to work on any new products.

Lon
 
Lon, I actually looked to see what it takes and I think your existing design would work just lengthening the brackets for the cross bar to sit further up front (in front of our IC duct) and it will work fine ... I even toyed with the idea to get your wonderbar cutting the brackets and welding a piece in there to move the bar forward, would that work you think?
 
Hi Jan!
Sorry I missed your call yesterday!
I was out in the back yard, cutting the grass and weeds! Got to make the place kinda presentable for you!
I will carry the cell around today (so watch you not call! Ha!), so I will be by the phone all day!
I forgot, you planning on showing up for which day? I don't work at all, just hang around the house (well, the garage really!), and drive around town abit.

Looks like rain starting maybe tomorrow! I told you not to bring it! :roll:
You leave Sunday? Or Monday?
Suppose to be in the 80s then! Figures!

Talk with you soon,

George :twisted:
 
Well,
Jan is out here, and it didn't rain!! :D
Gave him the tour, and showed him around!
We are going to an old cowboy town today, and see some stuff, then off to Laughlin!!
May even pull the baby out tonight! Who knows!
Oh ya, we ate like pigs last night! Ha!

Just an update,

George :twisted:
