It's official! The Ashtabula County park commissioner has approved our group to use the grassy area where the car shows are held for our Metros! Here is a pic of the area. Sorry it's dark, but you can see the pavilion on the right and the grassy area we will be lined up on and the lake is right there.........

Don't be ashamed to park your Metro or other econobox in line because this is going to be fun and most of our rides are not pretty anyway, so polish them turds!

Figured I would add this here so everyone would see it.

I will be hauling my car in on a trailer since it is really not comfortable to drive long distances anymore. The trailer has a lot of extra room as well as room inside the van. I have a spare ~91 metro as well as a huge pile of parts that I no longer need since my car is using fewer stock parts all the time and going more to custom stuff I don't really need them anymore. So if anyone needs parts I have lots of stuff for free. First one to ask gets the parts and I will bring as much as I can fit on the trailer or in the van.

Parts I can think of:

Prob 3 full suspensions from a 90-94 or so year range
2 good 145/12 tires
4 bald 145/12 but good rims :)
Full body and glass off the 91
nasty but usable blue interior parts
gray 2dr carpet and a black vert carpet
engine parts and trans parts but no complete working engines or trans that I can think of
piles of sensors and assorted bits.

don't have the headlight bezels I accidentally ran into the front end with the tractor and broke them :( Other than that the body is in decent shape and I could bring fenders and junk. Prob no room for the hood though. I am sure I have lots of other parts so if I didn't list it just ask :)

I'll take the good 145/80R12 tires. I'll be bringing some stuff to Geopalooza as well when me and "Snowball" make the trip. Later!

I will also be bringing some parts for sale. I have a set of P155/80R13 tires with 50% tread, a few parts like water pumps, camshafts, motor mounts, driver side mirror, etc. I may also sell my rebuilt port and polished head when I get that finished since I have another one to rebuild when this one is done.

There are a few spots reserved at the site I am staying at. But the ones close to me are still open. I am at spot #29 it would be pretty neat to have a whole row of Metros camping at that site.

It looks like I will probably leave my house at like 9 or 10am and get there before dark on the 23rd to get set up. I will be driving straight north on I77 most of the way there. So if anyone is going the same way as me just look for an Astro towing a Metro and that is me :)
Gonna make reservations tomorrow evening :rocker looks like if i can get 30, or 31 that would be cool... ill keep ya posted X Just look for a Blue 94 with a tent. at the campground.

I have an extra block here but it is really greasy and I don't want to put it in my nice van interior :) I will have to look and see what condition any of the control arms are in and see if any are decent. I should have at least one decent set I figure.

Others input?
I like the design, especially because it looks just like Honey Mustard (including the wheels). Do they come in any color except white?

I am starting an attendance list for those interested in coming to the gather. This is because other people may want to meet up on the road and travel together for the trip which benefits everyone! If your name is not on this list and you plan to attend, please post and let me know so I can update the list. If your name is on the list and you cannot attend, I can remove it if you inform me of the changes. Also post your location and if you are bringing someone with you so I can make the proper arrangements necessary. So far, these people are interested in coming. The tags in front of the names identify the forum they posted from (GeoMetroForum, Ecomodder, TeamSwift, Automotive Forums)...........

It seems like all these car groups are east coast and central people. I was on a Firebird group and nearly everyone lived on the east coast or near it. To bad there aren't more West Coasters haha. :hmm
