    Can we come????

    Ive been following this thread for what seems forever. Me and the wife would love to come but doubtful the car will be running by then. Ran into some block machining issues that have slowed the refurbishing process dramatically.:blast: But, Im sure this will turn into a annual event, so already have a goal date set for the car. Lotta parts bought and paid for.....just the time to start hanging the stuff (like the F@rd 9")Anyhow, do we have estimate on attendence and how many tri-shields are going to make it???? :Do No: (thinking to self.......am I rambling on, and on, and on.....:boring: )will try to enclose a pic of "THE MONEY PIT" to show you why the Buick will not be making the trip with me and the wife:puzzled:

    Maybe I would like to take both cars:beer Not really sure what the wife is going to do and my son is only 14 (15 in Nov).

    Wayne are you on the local LSPBC list? or interested in joining the local club? Check us out at www.lspbc.org also if your interested there are pictures of both of my cars in the image bank section.

    The club has a car show next weekend at Chucks in far north Plano at Preston rd & 121, if you would like to come out I would like to meet you and your family.

    You can email me private at fast86gn@comcast.net

    good deal

    No,yes, I will look, that sounds great. But really, I do want to join the lspbc. I want my wife and I to be more active in the buick community. I have been associated with buicks for about 15 years, and haven't really been a part of a local club. We went to the car show last month but we arrived a little late and just got to see a few of the remaining vehicles. Hope to get there on time this month so we can see and do more. I will have to get my wife away from the mall across the street but we would like to meet you there. Please do not call the police on me when you see her handcuffed to the side of my truck:rolleyes: drastic times call for drastic measures:spank:

    So here's my checklist:

    1. join club
    2. go to car show at Chuck's
    3. make bail for handcuffing wife
    4. buy wife jewelry to counter the divorce offer
    5. Sell buick to pay for jewelry
    6. find a new wife who can afford to buy back recently sold buick:TU:

    Re: good deal


    Never, and I mean never, sell the Buick for any reason. Speaking from experience here. :af: After being with my significant other for 10 years, I realized that AFTER he talked me into junking my wrecked GS and all the parts to go with it, (which I had been dragging around with me for 15 years), that I had done the wrong thing. I had gotten rid of the car instead of the boyfriend. Well, got rid of the boyfriend, got back into Buicks and joined LSPBC.

    Here was my checklist:

    1) Start working on my Buick again.
    2) Go to a LSPBC meeting.
    3) Join LSPBC.
    4) Go to Chuck's car show.
    5) Realize how stupid I had been for junking my GS.
    6) Dump the boyfriend I had to 10 years.
    7) End up in the poor house - but heh, I've still got my cars!!!!

    BTW: I didn't get any jewelry after dumping the boyfriend and I was the one that showed him how to fix his car troubles! :Dou: :eek2:

    if you look to the left by the smilies and go down to the bottom where the smilies end. you will see options, below that is attach file. this is where you will need to attach the picture use the browse button to find the picture and double click on the link that you use to open the picture. hope this helps. also i think the picture needs to be resized to 800/800 not exactly sure i use about 500 pixels.

    here is a picture of my blue car. example
