[mustangmoma4488]

March or April sounds good. I have a crazy work schedule. Do we have a day and time set?

[wildberry90gt]

and that day is the birthday of the Mustang! The airshow here actually had a carshow near the displayed jets. I saw a foxbody in it. Oh, found a potential Lowcountry member here in BFT off a Corral.net posting. He has like 1 foxbody and some SN95 cars. I gave him the link for here.

[Chuckles_5.0]

Bumpaty Bump Bump!

APRIL 17th, Chucktown AFB airshow and birthday party! lol.

Bump x2. sending messages.

[Chuckles_5.0]

Show Update:

Gates open at 9:00 am.
they've got a bunch of good stuff planned (as usual)

We need to decide on a good time to meet. I know we've got some people coming from out of town (Sent KB the date to see if any upstate members were open to making the trip) so we need to know what works good for everyone!

[wildberry90gt]

grub and then head-out. Airshow here has all the good stuff happening around 2 or 3 in the afternoon.

[Chuckles_5.0]

yeah, I don't know what the actual schedule is, I haven't been to the air show in a while.

Food is important (especially right not...I'm starving!!)

Hey, we can grab a table at Buffalo Wild Wings, they have some great food.

[93volpe]

Bad news .... the CHS airshow has been cancelled

http://www.charlestonairexpo.com/

[vcr12564]

:angry: I was so looking forward to this!

[wildberry90gt]

We can still do the LCSEFB meet. Do the Chuckes cruise at Sonic or the place next door.

[vcr12564]

That sounds great Joel. I'm in! I was hoping someone would say that. :lol1: :thumbsup1:

[Chuckles_5.0]

The show must go on! after all, if we can go to Moose's in the rain we can still meet with out the Air Show. lol

" the Blue Angels are still committed to performing for the Charleston community that same weekend and will fly a demonstration over the Charleston Harbor as a finale for the Charleston Naval Week activities."

first off, I wonder what the Naval week entails. secondly, depending on when they do the demo we could still catch em. we'll put that in the "might maybe could" section.

[wildberry90gt]

we do the cruise deal again. Pretty cool drive.

[Chuckles_5.0]

Maybe we could cruise down 61 into downtown and grab some food there? Only about a million options for good food down there

Mellow Mushroom
T-bonez (and Kaminsky's)
Jim N Nicks BBQ
Wasabi
Tsunami
Bubba Gump
AW Shucks
Noisy Oyster
Kickin Chicken
Wild Wings

that about scratches the surface. I'm a huge fan of Mellow Mushroom, lol

[93volpe]

I'm a huge fan of Mellow Mushroom, lol

the ones out of the cow pasture ???:thumbsup1::lol1: or maybe its:p:p

[RUNINAGT]

Well I am sure if we need a place to meet, to start a cruise we could use my works parking lot. It is only minutes from downtown. We are off of Savannah Hwy (17) . On the part about cruising down town. That might be a bit difficult just due to keeping everyone together in the downtown streets, and then finding parking down there. Shoot that's a whole new deal. My thoughts would be something like maybe meet somewhere like here, then do a cruise down 17 pending on how far we want to cruise to get to place to eat.? Heck if it's a nice day out then we could take a long route going down old 61, cut back up Dorchester to Ashley Phosphate to Hooters? Or shorter route up to I-26 at Cosgrove up I-26 to Hooters? We could go on and on.

Anyway back to my point. Give me a day and I am sure we could use the parking lot. Plenty of room to park for a bit , hang out, show the cars off, possibly have folks stop by to drool some and then when we want hit the street..


Let me know
"GT"

[wildberry90gt]

was an issue for our first meet - to many **** redlights! Anyhoo, looking forward to doing something. Hooters is always a good hang-out.

[Chuckles_5.0]

thats true... traffic sucks, red lights also suck.

hmm. I'm not a huge fan of Hooters personally.

[vcr12564]

thats true... traffic sucks, red lights also suck.

hmm. I'm not a huge fan of Hooters personally.

Really. I would have thought that would be high on your list....the scenery that is. :lol1:

Again the parking lot will hold us all im sure just let me know.:thumbsup1:

LOL!

[wildberry90gt]

car wash day?

[vcr12564]

car wash day?

You horn dog! :lol1::lol1:

[Chuckles_5.0]

We could also think about heading toward the beach too, everyone loves the beach.

[RUNINAGT]

Ya know I was thinking on the way into work this morning. It would be cool if we got an escort from the city in their police stangs.

So any news about a possible cruise? The weather is getting nicer. Keeping it clean.

[Chuckles_5.0]

The weather is getting nicer. Keeping it clean.

yeah, till the pollen starts to turn my car yellow. :angry:



_______________

any way, 17 days out, what's the vote,

where should we officially meet?
where should we eat?
where should we cruise?

I'm down for anything, we have options on both sides of town
(good old Sonic in Summerville or RUNINAGT's work down on 17) so when we figure out where we want to eat we can decide which would be better.

as to the cruise,

We can take old 61 again
We can cruise to one of the beaches
Or maybe some one else has an idea?

For food the options are endless, We did just get a "Five Guys" in Summerville... MMMMM. As a matter of fact we have to thank Five Guys for our newest Lowcountry member! :lol1:

[RUNINAGT]

any way, 17 days out, what's the vote,

where should we officially meet? 444 Savannah HWY @ Hay Tire Co,
where should we eat? Moe's in Summerville by Target
where should we cruise? To Moe's. They serve beer :yes1: . My thought meet @ Savannah Hwy, talk crap leave out down 17 to 526. 526 to I-26 to Summerville. Moes is on the right. Parking lot in shopping center should be plenty big, just have to walk thru parking lot to eat.


Guys I know the guy that owns the Moe's here and I just talked with him. He said that he would be glad to offer a discount of some sort if we end up at the Summerville store. They offer a special on Mondays only, but he said let him know and he will offer that special to the foxbody club on that day. So again just let me know.

If not then we (my son and I) are glad to follow where ever. As long as the weather permits . :thumbsup1:

Yup that's what he said. Mo Monday special. Did I mention they serve beer as well.


How many cars do you think we may have?

[Chuckles_5.0]

well if every one who had said they were down for a meet can make it we'll be around 9, possibly more.

[wildberry90gt]

Need to get directions to the tire place - it's off SC 17 right?

[vcr12564]

Need to get directions to the tire place - it's off SC 17 right?

x2

[Chuckles_5.0]

It's pretty easy to get to, from Summerville/Cola direction

I26 all the way into down town Charleston, stay toward the right.
it dumps you onto 17,
Follow that through down town and it will bring you over the river
pass the Round Holiday Inn, under three overpasses. stay to the right and you will see it on the right.

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Summerville+SC&daddr=Wesley+Dr&hl=en&geocode=FYjS9wEd4J04-ylL4-cTxPT-iDFPTQYoI3kiAQ%3BFTUv9AEdvLQ7-w&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=1&sz=18&sll=32.779738,-79.971494&sspn=0.002544,0.004823&ie=UTF8&ll=32.789511,-79.957724&spn=0.020348,0.038581&t=h&z=15



From Beaufort you just take 17 all the way

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Beaufort+SC&daddr=US-17+N+to:32.779878,-79.973321+to:Wesley+Dr&geocode=Fd3d7gEdexMx-ykTUZuaWQz8iDH2vDEbhUGd8g%3BFfI-9AEdeVQ7-w%3B%3BFUMv9AEdv7Q7-w&hl=en&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=2&sz=19&via=1,2&sll=32.779898,-79.972824&sspn=0.001272,0.002411&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=19

[RUNINAGT]

Coming from Beaufort, you must turn on Wesley Dr to get in our parking lot. There will be an Exxon on your left. Also a Ye Ole Fashion Ice cream parlor. You will make the turn on Wesley between the Exxon and Ice cream parlor. Then turn right into the parking lot. Come towards the flagpole.

From I-26 just as stated above. Stay on 17-s once you pass the Round Holiday Inn we will be the 1st parking lot on the right.

Guys is it fine to have other years of Stangs in this cruise. I am cool with that, I feel the more the better. Should be a nice little roaring noise coming down the street... :thumbsup1:

[wildberry90gt]

Thanks for setting this up and the directions. Vickie, spotted your twin GT yesterday coming back from Ga. - didn't have a chance to stop him.

[vcr12564]

Cool! :thumbsup1: I guess it was a beauty huh? :lol1: nah, not too many with the red stripes around. Just unique.

[RUNINAGT]

I have a friend here in Charleston that has a very close twin to mine. I will let him know about this, i am sure they would love to join.

[wildberry90gt]

two foxbodies on the way home Sunday - kinda rare these days.

[baker7598]

So...nobodies meeting in Summerville and then heading down to MOes?

[RUNINAGT]

from what I understand we meet here in West Ashley @ Hay Tire co. Meet around 9AM then make the cruise up 17 to HWY 61 into Summerville over to Moe's? Then what ever from there. That is how I understand it.

9 am? what you trying to do kill me? :lol1: I'd like to be able to get final touches on my car done that morning, and we've got some coming in from a good ways out.

probably more like 10:30 / 11 ish (depends on what works best for every one)

So...nobodies meeting in Summerville and then heading down to MOes?

I'll be heading down from this way of course, decided on the West Ashley meeting location so we do the cruise up 61 before lunch.

If you want to meet up in S'ville and cruise down to Hay Tire I'm down for that. lol, we can have a "pre meet and cruise" starting from good ole Sonic. :lol1:

[RUNINAGT]

I thought some one else posted 9AM, I was just repeating. Later is fine with me. I live near the Sonic in summerville, (Dorchester RD) So I'm game either way. I as well wanna wash'em before I show'em. I need to know about the Moe's thing though to tell my friend so we can get the coupon deal. Again I live up the road from the Sonic, but will they hold a bunch?

[Chuckles_5.0]

We usually meet at/around the new one on 78 by Buffalo Wild Wings, the parking lot out there is plenty big enough to handle a handful of cars.

as of this moment we have six confirmed, Chip might come down with Vickie and I'm not sure if Kyle (Kylemdotcom) has a rider or not, I just sent him a PM to confirm.

got three more local folks but one hasn't been active in a while so I don't know if we'll get a response from her...

any who I'm gonna see if Carlin is gonna ride along/ might have his fuel issue fixed by then, and double check on some others. shouldn't be too long before we get a good idea of who can make it.

[RUNINAGT]

I have a friend with another black gt that more than likely will make it. I checked with him yesterday and it was a thumbs up, but he would no more next week.

[kylemdotcom]

ill be there. so are we meeting at sonic in s'ville or at the tire place on savanna highway?

[kylemdotcom]

more than likely i will have my girlfriend with me.

[wildberry90gt]

Thought the plan was: Meet at tire place between 10:30 - 11ish. Head-out to Moe's and eat hang-out.

[kylemdotcom]

either is fine with me

[1990SSC]

I had to make sure I was off work to go to this, and i am. So i will be there. So, we are meeting at Sonic at what time? Then going down to West Ashley? Then going back to Summerville to Moes? Just let me know, and i will be there. :thumbsup1:

[Chuckles_5.0]

Where we meet is up to the majority. I personally am a fan of Summerville cause lets face it, most of us live in Summerville.

I did some routing just now and came up with this:
MAP (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Co+Rd+S-10-65%2FW+Richardson+Ave&daddr=W+Butternut+Rd%2FCo+Rd+S-18-58+to:Co+Rd+S-18-22%2FOrangeburg+Rd+to:Carter+Rd%2FCo+Rd+S-18-174+to:Carter+Rd%2FCo+Rd+S-18-174+to:33.003913,-80.325508+to:N+Main+St&hl=en&geocode=FUXV9wEdw5o4-w%3BFVTk9wEdunc3-w%3BFYmY-AEdr243-w%3BFR7A-AEd9lE2-w%3BFXRd-AEdVjk2-w%3B%3BFcIW-AEdDuY4-w&mra=dpe&mrcr=0&mrsp=5&sz=13&via=1,2,3,4,5&sll=33.02277,-80.297871&sspn=0.081177,0.154324&ie=UTF8&ll=33.026512,-80.240021&spn=0.162346,0.439453&t=h&z=12)

Its about 35 miles, the map says it takes "1 hour 9 min" but I'm going to run it Saturday to see how it is and how long it really takes (any local guys want to join just PM me)

if it's a nice route we could simply meet in Summerville and avoid the down town area all together.

any time is fine by me, if you want to come along just let me know when is best for you.

[kylemdotcom]

2?

[RUNINAGT]

looks good. You are wanting to mainly stay on back roads? I have never done a cruise in before, but I thought you would want to keep it near population to kind of show off the herd? I'm happy either way, but those are all 2 lane roads. Nice roads though.
We are only one week away, lets get the schedule of events.

[kylemdotcom]

yeah they are two lanes. not a lot of traffic either. used to take that route to school when they had road work going on on 78.

I'm personally a fan of the back roads for actually enjoying a drive. a nice slice of it runs in Summerville so we'll still have some 'show off' time, and of course we'll be rolling into the shopping center and there's bound to be at least a half dozen people in there :lol1:

Kyle 2 is fine, if you want we can meet up in town square and head out from there.

Once we get a drive time for this route we can confirm more exact times for everything. Look for an official eye catching schedule post to come Saturday or Sunday. :thumbsup1:

[Chuckles_5.0]

Lowcountry SEFB April Meet

DATE: APRIL 17th
Location: Summerville
Meeting 10:30

I think it would be best to meet in townsquare before the cruise.

Coming from the highway
you continue down 17A. DON'T TURN!
coming directly off the highway you will get in the left middle lane (the furthest left lane becomes the turn lane to Sonic) continue on down and you will come to the train tracks/townsquare.
As soon as you cross over the tracks make a right and then a left. it is a parking street with shops on the right and a park on the left.

Coming from Beaufort
you will turn onto Trolley road as always but do not make the Right onto Berlin G. Myers Parkway, continue to the next stop light and make a right onto 17A
Follow that in until you come to townsquare, the park will be on your left, you will want to go to the end and come around the end of the park onto the street we will park on.

We will head out on the cruise at 11:00 (or sooner if every one is present and ready to go)

The cruise route takes just under 1 hour.

that will put us back in Summerville and at Moe's right around 12:00 to finish up with Lunch.

[kylemdotcom]

ill be there if i can get someone to work my shift saturday. shouldnt be a problem

[RUNINAGT]

What do ya guys think about me posting something on Craigslist about this to see if we could get more Stangs involved.
The square near the shops? Do you think those shops may be busy. Just want to make sure we have a place to park with no issues.

[kylemdotcom]

i doubt they will be too busy. if they are we can always meet & park across the street in the parking garage

[RUNINAGT]

ok cool, I didn't even know that Summerville had a parking garage. My co-worker just told me where it is lol. Cyall Saturday.

[baker7598]

ok cool, I didn't even know that Summerville had a parking garage. My co-worker just told me where it is lol. Cyall Saturday.

oh yeah we parked there during the Flowertown Festival. Kinda small though.

So we're meeting in the middle of downtown Summerville on that one way road in front of the shops? Sounds good I'll be there.

[kylemdotcom]

i gotta work saturday morning. ill be getting out of work right at 10:30 so ill be at town square as soon as i get off!

[Chuckles_5.0]

i doubt they will be too busy. if they are we can always meet & park across the street in the parking garage


Exactly, if the shops happen to be busy the parking garage is plenty big enough, the only way that would ever be full is the festival.

[mustangmoma4488]

I will see you guys around 12 @ Moe's. Count me in for 2.

[wildberry90gt]

for the park? PM me your number please Chuck in case my old arse gets lost.

[Chuckles_5.0]

to be honest I think the street is technically just considered part of South Main Street (17A)? lol

One of the shops addy is

112 South Main Street
Summerville, 28483

[kylemdotcom]

so do we know how many people were gonna have?

[RUNINAGT]

ya think we should post something in CL to see if we could rally more stangs?

[kylemdotcom]

sure

[Chuckles_5.0]

WOOT!!!


Saw 1990SSC today and his sweet SEFB stickers!!! :thumbsup1:
Kinda makes me wish the vert had bigger quarter windows...


I'M READY FOR A SOUTHEASTERN FOXBODIES MEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:rock: :thumbsup2::3gears:

[vcr12564]

Is there anyone from the Columbia area going or am I the lone fox? :sad1:

[Chuckles_5.0]

I don't know of any one... You got to whip them boy's into shape!!

[vcr12564]

Last minute decision, Chip's coming too.
See ya in a bit......:thumbsup1:

[baker7598]

It was great seeing everyone again and meeting some new people. I kinda forgot their names but it was good meeting ya'll!

At least Chuck didn't wreck from that crazy truck that was trying to pass the moped.

[wildberry90gt]

I see that may be an option on the shirt site. Anyhoo, I saw him come-out on Chuckles and stood on the pedal and looked for your "5.0" 3rd brake light. That's cool.
