After the local fires scared me off from coming to this last year... I was really looking forward to driving my 80' 200SX to it event this year even without working AC and part of the dash missing.

 

But, after a recent ambulance ride to the ER and pain meds that caused me to fall down... I finally got the word from my back specialist... I have a blown out lower disk, and a fragmented disk below that. No more parts picking or stripping trucks for me, and fusion surgery is in my near future. Prognosis is I'll be really fortunate if I can finish my 620 in many many short work periods. And at 6'4" I'll be even luckier if I'm able to drive it.

 

This leaves me with a lot of 620/720 parts from my last picks , that I wasn't able to take to the last Eagle a Rock Swap Meet. PM me if you see something you need and I can bring it to bring to the BBQ. Need to get em gone before surgery.

This may be the last event I can attend for some time, and I may not be able to drive the SX, but I'll be there for my truck fix!

Sorry to here this and I hope and pray you have a speedy recovery.  My brother had his lowr back fused several years ago and does pretty good after the surgery.  Read my 66 520 thread and you will see he is still able to do most things.

 

If you can make it to the SWDP Barbecue please do but if you can not do it please stay home and heal.

depends whivh route u take, i am by the 15 fwy

 

Hey there Red13, maybe I'll be somewhere near you (?)

 

I'll just be honest here...I have no sense of direction...(NONE) & must rely on GPS apps to get me places so, I'm hitting the 101 going South from Atascadero & from there...wherever my navigation app tells me to go. It's anxiety-provoking butI suppose there are worst things than taking a wrong turn in a Datsun :angel:

There is a water park on premises if you get to hot Angela.

 

Yes, I saw that...it's not so much the cooling off by available water sources...it's the ban on beer that's tough.

 

BBQ, frosty beer & Datsuns go GREAT together in my book .

 

I understand the "family" environment though.

We will be there from Phoenix between 9 & 10 am  we ususally start cooking around 12 pm and people come and go all day long.  Usually leave around 5 pm.
