No problem. The hotel is providing us with a car washing area!

2026 SAOCA 25th Anniversary Invasion! Back to our Rootes!
- Thread starter Alpine 1789
- Start date
I will be attending without my Sunbeam due to a suspension failure
Sorry to hear that, Steve, but happy you will still be there. It will be good to see you again!
My bride and I will be attending. I had hoped to drive Ol Blue just as I did 25 years ago. However, if the high heat and humidity contine (looking at 100 degrees and 77% humidity today) we will arrive in the Nissan. I have no doubt that Ol Blue and the V6 could successfully make the trip but I am not sure this aging octagenarian could handle the heat. See you soon!
I'm in! I'll be driving solo in my Dodge Caravan, down from Cleveland. My Alpine needs some work I don't have time for
I'm considering bring my SV hardtop that needs restoration but has all the hardware including the chrome trim around the rear window. Is anyone interested enough that it makes sense to bring it?

Terrific news, Tom! I am looking forward to seeing you again, but sad we won't get a rematch on our drag race from many years ago.

The boat is a '65 Carver 16' runabout. Lapstrake construction, restored and painted a while ago. Re-powered with a Honda 50 hp outboard, awating installation of full Honda gauge package and controls. Oh, and fabrication of a windshield. I drove that boat when I was 5 years old.
I have a quick schedule update for everyone: Kevin McLemore (puff4) is going to do a tech session on 3D printing tomorrow at 5pm. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am fascinated by the possibilities of 3D printing but know absolutely nothing about it. So, I for one will be paying rapt attention to “3D design & printing of parts: Where do I start?”
I will print out final schedules when I get to the hotel later this morning and have them available for all. See everyone soon.

The first Alpine has arrived at the hotel!
We are sharing the hotel with the Daimler club, so it should be an interesting parking lot!

We had a great turnout last night for our get together with the club’s founders. Ian Spencer, Scott Christie and Andy McGraw were all there to share stories about the club’s founding along with other original members like Jan Servaites and Mike Phillips.
