Cars and Coffee

[WeirsBeachBoater]

I know some of us forum folks enjoy Classic, Antique and Special interest autos. I'd like to put together a Cars and Coffee type event, where people can come together for a couple hours on a Saturday or Sunday morning. Any interest in this? I would put it on at my Garage in Meredith. Probably enough room for 25-30 cars. Let me know, we could plan something for May, and if there is enough interest maybe once a month?

Dad's got a Camaro convertible, and I've got a Mustang convertible--probably both be interested in checking out others' rides!

I'd sure love to stop by on a Saturday morning for a coffee. I try to take a hot rod or one of my bikes up to my place in Meredith most weekends. That sounds like lots of fun and awful nice of you to offer. If you do decide to try something I'd be happy to help out with the coffee and refreshments.

I'd be interested...

[AltonGuy]

I would be interested too! Thanks for the offer.

[BroadHopper]

I will be interested.

Ok, Looked at my calendar today. I would like to invite you all to come to Cars and Coffee on May 2nd Starts at 9am, probably wrap up by noon. This is not a show or a cruise night event. It is very simply a time for like minded people that enjoy Vehicles old and new of special interest. Could be a Model T Ford or a Ferrari. Please don't bring your show quality Dodge Caravan!
No awards, prizes or DJ's. Just cool cars and cool people. Oh and Coffee + Donuts. To be held at Finn's Garage 181 Waukewan St Meredith NH

The Cars and Coffee sounds great (weather permitting ).

For those who don't already know.... there are usually weekly "Cruise Nights" as follows. I can confirm that the ones at the 104 Diner, the Tilt'n Diner and CJs happened last year. I can't confirm the Clarke Plaza one but it was advertised. Not sure if they will all happen again this year either.

Tuesday - Clarke Plaza (Wolfboro), 104 Diner (New Hampton)
Wednesday - Tilt'n Diner (Tilton)
Thursday- CJ Avery's (Laconia)

I also know that Buckey's in Moltonborough used to do one on Sunday afternoon but that was few years ago.

If anyone has info on Lake Region events in 2015, I would appreciate it.

Long range forecast still looks good. Planning on Saturday May 2nd. Hope you all can make it.

Here's my list from last year...

For 2015, Castle in the Clouds is 7/11 http://www.castleintheclouds.org/eve...obile-event-2/

I have not heard anything about clarke plaza this year. I remember hearing some search for a new organizer for this year, so...who knows.

The Yankee Smokehouse cruise ended prematurely last fall, we'll see if that happens.

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Weather is still looking good! Look for our ad in Thursday and Friday Laconia Sun.

[thinkxingu]

Bump as a reminder. Might not be able to make it--if we do, it'll be closer to noon. Had a tree taken down at camp and need to clean it up before we can have our first fire!

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Weather is on our side. Looking forward to tomorrow. Hope to meet some great new car people! See you there!

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Thank you to all that attended! Nice to see Irish Choppers, and PatMan! We had such a good time, and good turnout, we are doing it again. Mark your calendars Sat June 6th 9am.

[patman]

A couple of pictures...several folks had already left by the time I got around to taking pictures.

[SteveA]

Always a lot of cars at this event:

[Irish Choppers]

Kudos to Weirs Beach Boater! It was a terrific event with lots of good people and great cars! It's always enjoyable to meet car guys from different parts of the Lakes Region and even better when they're part of this forum. That's a great looking Nova you've got there Patman! Looking forward to the 6th! Now... what car, truck or bike to bring????

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Sunday June 7th. Come on by. Bring your specialty, antique, or classic vehicle. We'll have the Coffee! 9am 181 Waukewan St Meredith NH 03253 Just off rte 104, 4 buildings down on the left. Finn's Garage!

Do you sell old cars, WBB?

[WeirsBeachBoater]

I work with many collectors, as a consultant. Assist in the sale and purchase of antique, classic and specialty vehicles. Do you have one for sale? I know many buyers looking!

[BroadHopper]

I had a 1968 Dart GTS 340 4 speed, 1971 Challenger R/T 440 six pack 4 speed, 1973 Challenger Rallye 340 4 speed and last but not least 1970 'Cuda ragtop with Hemi auto. All great cars!

I will buy in a heart beat a 1968 Dart GTS 340 4 speed if the price is right. I will even do mild restoration. This is my favorite machine. A light car with a light motor. A joy to drive after swapping out the OEM anti-roll bars with stiffer aftermarket and replacing all the bushings with neoprene.

Anyone planning on going to the MOPAR Nats in Englishtown?

No, we have two old trucks a 34 and 39 done by Lowery and now are looking for a car, but a street rod with all new.

[WeirsBeachBoater]

I know Jim real well. Come by the shop Sunday and introduce yourself, be happy to help you find what you are looking for.

(psssst, WBB your inbox is full )

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Just a reminder, our event is Tomorrow. Sunday June 7 9am. Hope to see some new faces there!

[brk-lnt]

Was hoping to make it this time, but we wound up staying home this weekend to finish a few projects.

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Hope to see some of you today 9am. I can't drink all this coffee myself!

[thinkxingu]

Was a beautiful day--how'd this go?

I just joined the forum this week. I go by your shop every weekend to get to my house on Lake Waukewan. I've seen the cars there a few times. I hope you have it again next season. I have a 67 Corvette but I haven't brought it up to my house in Meredith yet. I will keep an eye on the forum for next summer.

[WeirsBeachBoater]

Stop in and say hello anytime. Always open to meeting new Car people!

Will do.

I'm thinking of retiring soon and maybe moving up there full time. What kind of money could I make working part time, maybe 2 or 3 days a week, just to keep myself busy? What do they pay per hour in that part of NH? I have 45 years experience in Auto repair, the last 30 in business for myself.

[WeirsBeachBoater]

I am probably not the best to answer this question, I am in sales, not the service end of the business. There are many small shops around, probably a few that would be happy to have a "fill in" or part time guy!

Any cars and coffee this year??
