i don't think he drives his cars all too often. he has a red 2nd gen vert, red FD and a yellow REPU which is at my shop right now. the FD has bad oil seals as well as the REPU so those are getting new engines.

i don't know of anyone else from that area that is on this forum or goes to our meets in sacramento.

Hey Guys

I live in Oroville but am gone most of the time with work. If you see a Red Vert with a tan top that would be me. I have only put about 150 miles on the FD this year going to the store or just knocking the cobwebs out of it. Most of that driving is up by the lake though so I doubt anyone has noticed. The REPU is currently in Karack's hands right now and will have a rebuild soon. I have a 79 and 85 also but they are stored in So. Cal right now.

I will be around this weekend though and wouldnt mind checking out some local rides.

BTW - what is it with the people around Oroville ricing out Saturns?

Shaun

we should have a meet for Oroville too then. so well know everyone who has a 7 in Oroville. If there was a meet in Oroville. i dont know where to go. what do you mean by ricing out saturns. I dont think i've seen you around yet Shaun. What do you guys think about having a meet in Oroville. I liked to check out some local rides too. Don't expect my ride to be nice. its all stock now but im planing on rims and lowering it if i dont do a turbo swap this year. .im just a high schooler who works part time....still finishing my junior year. cant wait to graduate and get a better paying job so i can do more to my 7.

so it sounds like we are going to have a meet in oroville. but my question is where. where should we do the meet. how about saturday or maybe friday which day is best. i would like to take a look at your 7 chris. when people mention 7 that is not street legal, it always get me excited for no reason.
Should we make a list of whos going to come? If we are then ill be the first one.
