PNW Meet Up

Post by Neu »

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to gauge interest for another PNW meet up. I can get myself and a buddy of mine to show up, so that's two, but lets see how many we can get going.

The last meet up i went to was up east of seattle with synth and peter, which was a blast. I'd love to do it again.

that was a great gathering, lots showed up from a number of states. we attempted another one, but only a few got together for a picnic in Everett, no one else showed up.

I would be game for another, depending if it will fit in my schedule. Summer is pretty busy, September might be good as long as the weather holds.

No solid plans yet but I was hoping to escape the Arizona summer heat and take a July-August timeframe trip to PNW. Would love to meet up if things come together.

I unfortunately wouldn't be able to make one this year with me hosting one in Michigan just a few weeks after. If you guys set something up for 2023, you can count me and Spud in for a huge journey!

I would like an excuse for a road trip south but if it's in the summer I likely won't be able to attend due to the nature of my job :(

The sooner we can lock in a date, the better. I'm interested, but the calendar fills up pretty quickly.

Alright. It sounds like august/september might be a decent time to do this? If everyone can give specific months that work best. The PNW is pretty tercel friendly until November/December so we have until then.

I'm game for whatever. I'm busy the last week in July and August but I can work with most other dates.

4runners are fine, lol. I think Pete would like to see one since his got t-boned.

Maybe we could align this meeting around a car show? The Old School Reunion (classic Japanese/euro car show) is being held at the LeMay Museum grounds in Tacoma, WA on June 12, 2022.

http://www.speedhunters.com/2019/06/sea ... l-reunion/

It would be cool to meet up before hand and have a column of Tercel wagons roll into the show as a group! Perhaps find a local watering hole afterwards?

Just throwing out ideas...

I second the Tacoma idea, but I'm partial because that's where I live.

There is a someone in my neighborhood (Lincoln district) that has 2 really awesome SR5's. Would love to meet them, considering they inadvertently got me interested in them lol. Walk past them every week, so when one came up I jumped on the opportunity.

magnus,

This map is getting woefully out of date (hope to improve/update in the future), but likely still pretty good for the PNW. Obviously not nearly everyone, but at least some that are on here or the FB page.

Im down to meet up with or without a running terdcel of my own.

So we can work on dates. June 12th is pretty close so idk how likely that is. Is there another car show we could hit later in the year?

I definitely read that date wrong lol, won't be ready anytime soon.

But I'm definitely down to meet up with people, everyone should come to my house, I'll smoke a brisket and I'll watch you guys replace my head gasket.

All jokes aside it would be nice to meet up, i would love to get a look at some other peoples cars.
