Philadelphia Folks

Hello sethkestenbaum,
I live in Palmyra which is connected to Philadelphia by a bridge. I belong to the Delaware Valley Model A Club and we would love to have you join us. Here is our website: http://www.dvmafc.org/

We meet again this coming Thursday 8/2/12, Check the site for all the information. Be there by 7:00 PM for some social time prior to the 7:30 meeting. Bring your car if you have one.

Yes Mitch, I am laying the groundwork for the next trip. I was thinking a three day weekend. Hopefully with only PLANNED repairs. Your name was given to me earlier today as one of the Philadelphia Model A gurus with whom I might want to speak/coordinate.
 
Seth,
I live 15 south west of philly in Delaware CO. PA originally from north east Philly.
lets all get together for dinner or a tour !!!

Mike, that could be fun.

All, I would love to get a bunch of the area guys to meet for coffee or beers one night. It is only going to be a three day trip (with one night in central NJ) for me so I want to schedule appropriately. I will hopefully have a weekend picked soon.

I would also love to hear of a few venue suggestions where I can take a "I made it to Philly" photo of the car that would scream Philadelphia. Thoughts?
 
seth,
your covered planned or unplanned repairs. there are plenty of barners in the area to keep you hooked up. what kind of itinerary were you thinking about ?
 
you can take a picture at the famous geno"s steaks in south philly. for sure you need to get one

Geno's Steaks..... Awesome call!!!!!! Rocky Steps.... I don't know if the car will make it all the way up the steps. We can try, but I may need help pushing her up or back down them.

Mitch, I was thinking about doing it in August --- I just don't yet know when.

It would be great if some of the barners wanted to do a little tour to Geno's or elsewhere. If there is a club event and my car isn't in pieces, I'm thrilled to join. As with my other trip(s), I am hoping for the opportunity to work on the car with some folks in the know. I'm still amazed at all I learned in my Boston trip (Red, Rick and Harold all get my continued thanks and admiration).

With this in mind, I was thinking of a Thursday/Friday/Saturday or a Friday/Saturday/Sunday. This Monday I will hopefully narrow it down to a specific weekend and start building my plans around it. I also need to dedicate a little time to friends in the area that I haven't seen in a few years.
 
the only thing i got going on in august is the new hope auto show 11th and 12th. a bunch of guys are supposed to be there. i hope you took care of your water pump / radiator issues..needless to say give your car a good once over again
 
I have done NOTHING to the car since parking it and unpacking it last weekend. I do intend to do a thorough check on the systems, lube her up, change some fluids, wash her, and place a parts order. Some of this might happen tonight.
 
All,
Getting together sounds interesting to me also. I am not experienced with Model A's so I would be a student also. Hopefully I will be avalable on the date you select.
