Been away for a long time, missing the local events.

Anybody up for a mini-meet, grab a drink at Hooters or something?

thanks,

Hey Paul,

long time no see... my cousin will be visiting from France in August and I'll be taking her and the boyfriend up to Montreal via New England... will definitely have to stop by for some crab rolls up your way.
 
doesn't matter to me, name a place and time and I shall be there.

this weekend I'll be participating in a charity event: the Lincoln Tunnel Challenge

the only 5k completely under water in NYC.

Wouldn't mind going up to the Chatter Box in Sussex Cty. It's at the intersection of Rt. 15 and Rt. 94. Not to far from the minor league ballpark. It's like one of those '50's type car hop restaurants, but you eat inside. How about May 8 or 15th?
 
yeah that works for me, haven't been to this place yet... but the name itself is peculiar

I keep calling my cousin in France a chatterbox so getting a picture with a restaurant sign will be a must for me... assuming they have one

either date is good for me at this point, but lets lets chat closer to the actual day

see ya!
 
Those of us who hung around Seaside Heights, NJ, years ago are very familiar with the name Chatterbox.

The Chatterbox was a watering hole directly on the boardwalk featuring live entertainment (in many forms).

I'm taking my 2003 TBird to the Sussex County Chatterbox some night. (If she's running OK, I might take my 64 Galaxie instead.)

You guys may want to consider meeting at the Saturday night carshow held every week in Lyndhurst NJ, at the Whiskey Cafe, 1050 Wall St West.

But, you need to be there early or you'll never get a parking spot.
 
I used to go to Whiskey Cafe every Saturday some 5 years ago... we used to have a whole group of Ford/SVT folks show up... so much so that the classic car guys didn't like people with new cars coming as much... Love that show, always tons of cars to see and just as many bikes... music, trophies, etc.

It does get boring though... so I'll only go if I know someone else is going.

PS. Be aware of the Lyndhurst finest patrolling the roadway leading to the cafe... always someone showing off, and always someone getting a ticket on a Saturday night
 
Come to think of it I believe the Sussex Cty Chatterbox has a weekly car cruise nite. If memory serves it may be Sat nites. Not sure when the first one of the season is but we went a couple of times last year.
 
Would be nice to get the NJ crowd to post up there towns so we could try and find a place that was equidistant for most everyone. If we could find a good place we could do a monthly type thing. I'm near Washington, Warren Cty.
 
Wyckoff in Bergen County had a Wednesday night meeting at the DMV/shopping center with excellent brick-oven pizza there.


Tuesday nights was a cruise night at Bennigans in Saddle Brook on Midland Avenue near exit 159 off the Garden State Parkway, but that restaurant has been closed so I'm not sure if its still happening.


At this point I'll be happy to travel just about anywhere in New Jersey on the weekends or weeknights... of course this may change once I finally land a job somewhere and my free time comes under control. Right now I have too much of it.


I do like the Warren County area, nice twisty roads up there... when I used to help organize SVT events on StangNet or SVTperformance we would cruise up there from Paramus, NJ and make a big circle ending up in Ringwood or Mahwah. (Start out on I80, go up local streets to the NJ/NY border, around the reservoirs, and back down rt17)

I take it your from the Paramus area so I got a feeling somewhere in Morris Cty is going to be the mid point. I know there is a cruise nite in Denville weekly I think at the IHOP and one in Succasunna at the McDonald's.
But if you don't mind taking a ride the meet in Hackettstown at the Lowe's/Wendy's starts next Thursday. We usually try to make this one weekly unless its threatening rain. It's free unless you want to enter for trophies then I think a season ticket is $5 bucks. We never win but they have a DJ every week so we buy a ticket for the year. They get about 75-80 cars avg. but in the summer there has been upwards of 200 cars. Bring your lawn chairs
