    HB PRE PARTY Friday, April 24th, 2015

    Hear Ye, Hear Ye!

    April is coming up FAST here! You know what that means?!? HB CRUISE-IN!! As has become the custom, I will be hosting the very un-official Friday Meet, Greet and EAT festivities on Friday.

    My family cordially invites you to hang out, cruise and BBQ at my place Friday, April 25th, 2014 as we start off the 2014 Huntington Beach Cruise-In weekend!

    The doors will be open all day for folks coming in from out of town. Park your trailer on our safe street and don't worry about it for the weekend!

    Come and eat all my food, cruise PCH and generally have a great time!

    If you want to come, please reply to this thread with your Full Name and number of people you plan to bring and I'll add you to the list of expected arrivals.

    We are located down the road a few miles from HB in beautiful Corona del Mar.

    All are welcome! Hope to see you here!

    Karl has an ERA so he spends most of the time on ClubCobra. I cover here for him and he covers there for me. David's car was built by Gordon Levy. I guess they must have gotten it the way David wants it because he doesn't want to change it much. Hector bought his 351 and it is done the way he wants it so I guess they don't think you should be here if you aren't building. I will have to work on them and convince them otherwise. They are good about helping others with their cars so their hearts are in the right place. Really looking forward to the party at your house and the cruise in.

    Thanks,

    WEK.

    David..looking forward to seeing you again and enjoying your beautiful home and hospitality. I think we are loosing a few people from AZ. Don't think Lynn is coming (-1) or Dave and Judy (-2). Looks like the rest are still planning to be there. I am counting on you for a pop up. Let me know if you can not come up with one and I'll locate one here to bring along.

    Judy and I would like to join you, your family and other guests again this year. We'll be trailering down from Visalia. Last year you allowed me to park my truck and trailer in you neighborhood. Is that option available again this year? Is there anything we can bring: food, beverages (adult or otherwise), etc. Thank you for your hospitality.

    Big D! How late do you think you'll be going till? I'll be landing at John Wayne at 10pm. I know I'll have to be up early to bring the stuff down to Main St early and meet the Truck from Stewart so maybe I'll head straight home. Give me a call!
