Cars and Coffee Irvine July 2013

[Xplantdad]

I was able to get out to Cars and Coffee in Irvine, Ca. with Holly this past Saturday. We met up with Mark Sheppard, NovaJoe and Mark Mitchell showed up as well. Dave Lindsley was supposed to meet up with us as well, but something came up...

It was good to see all of you! Thanks for the great morning... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

<span style="color: #3366FF"><span style="font-weight: bold">Bruce, it was great seeing you and Holly again!! Thanks for the pics and the kind words. I think I might have screwed up again though? Did I ever take Holly for a ride in the Nova or did I at least promise to take her for a ride at one time?? Would she even want to ride in it?? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then remind me next time you guys come to town and I'll take care of it!! Glad you guys made it home safe.</span> </span>

[Xplantdad]

Joe, You didn't screw up. I am sure that Holly would love a ride in a car &quot;like her daddy used to have&quot; <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

I will give you advance notice of the next trip! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

[6pakdave]

I saw Joes Nova on my last trip at a cruise where the Maguires guy was giving a talk on stage. It was just any old mid week cruize night 'filler' to me listed on SoCal car culture. It was a nice surprise for an aussie to hear Mr Maguire chat.
Nice Nova Joe. I rattled off quite a few pix that evening of your car. Verry nice!

cheers Dave

<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-weight: bold">Well then, consider it done!! Thanks again for the pics Bruce!!
Joe</span></span>

['69Novajoe]

<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-weight: bold">When I first saw your pic Dave, I had to look close to figure out where it was taken. It was actually at a church in Irvine and Barry Meguiar was the key speaker. Quite a testimony for sure!! Did I talk to you that night? I thought I did but my memory is not as good as it used to be!! Thank you for the kind words also. By the way, I have distant cousins in Queensland. Is that anywhere near you?? Would love to visit &quot;down under&quot; some day.....right after I go to Italy!!</span></span>

[6pakdave]

Joe, I talked to a few guys on the night, but no-one that mentioned they owned the Nova! I was trying to make out the rim/tire package you were running as I had purchased some nice used dog dish caps and ordered new 15x7&quot; rims from Wheels Vintiques. So I was spying your combo!
I live in Queensland, way down near the Southern border to NSW. The city is Surfers Paradise [you guys may know the city from an Indy Car round a few years back]

cheers Dave

hehe!

<span style="color: #CC0000"><span style="font-weight: bold">I had those 15x7 rims made by Stockton Wheel. Can't remember the backspacing though. The tires are 275-60-15's from Diamond Back Classics and the hubcaps are original to the car!! </span> </span> I live in Queensland, way down near the Southern border to NSW.
