Thanks for the input. Little beyond my desired reach, that would be an hour and a half drive for me, or anyone else up here in the foothills. I'd stick to Roseville area. But thanks for the input non the less.

I didn't realize it was that far off from Sac. I was going to make the trek there from South San Francisco till I found out that Custom Alignment was closer to my area at Mountain View.

Yeah it's only about 40-45 minuets from Sacramento.
But I am about 45 minuets East of Sacramento. That's why Roseville is more ideal.

Where you at, up 80 or 50? I'm smack dab between Tahoe and Yosmite off of highway 4. Great driving and riding in the summer, lots of garage time in the winter.

[SummoneR]

I am up 50, Placerville area.

Nice! Yes this is great country for that!

Yep, unfortunately the snowmobiles have been quite this winter too. Took the car out this weekend and started getting ansy to start the mods. Too many days of nice weather and I start abusing the bank account..

Well, the sooner you start, the sooner you want more. Ask me how I know. =)

My checklist is almost done though. Can't wait for the Fest!

Yeah it's been a weird winter, we have had freezing temps a lot, but no rain to make the snow, and the slopes are all ice, not much powder...

Yeah where I live there is a 5 miles stretch of road that get completely covered with fog , so it looks dark and dreary at the house but as soon as I get into town it's like Spring! Beautiful cruising weather, so I've been spending a lot of time in town this last week.

When it comes to mods I will most likely do my own headers and CAM, but the Super Charger tune etc, I will most certainly get done by a pro. I rebuilt the motor in my old '73 K5 Blazer several years back, but that engine is super simple.

I have also been looking for a good custom body work shop in the area. My first item on my list is to get my front bumper cover replaced along with a body kit. If I don't buy it already painted I need to find a shop to do it, and possible paint some stripes for me. Anyone know a decent paint/body shop in the same area?

I really hope I can make it to the fest this year!!

Are you headed up this way anytime next month?

[joleegp]

I really hadn't planned on doing too much, but my husband wanted to add the supercharger and headers. So to honor him (and have the hottest car in town) I'm going to complete his checklist. Funny, I ordered to car, I named her but he had the list. Unfortunately I don't think I going to make the fest this time either. I will have to live through everyone's pics!!

I almost did some custom paint, know a great guy over here but did the total girl thing and couldn't make up my mind. So a friend is in the vinyl business, so we are going to make the changes with vinyl and see how if feels. I hate the idea of painting her than wanting to change it later.

[SummoneR]

So how do you like your Pfadt suspension? I was considering going with them as well.

Yeah I know that feeling, that's why I have all vinyl right now. I am getting tired of it and I am thinking about removing it all... not sure, but I have an idea I want to do with the stripes and it can't be done with vinyl, at least not in the color I want, but maybe I could do a color close just to get the idea.

Edit: I know the feeling of not being able to make up my mind... not doing the total girl thing... which I guess is not being able to make up my mind LMAO. I'll just shut up now.

Paul, I' might be headed up there in March, but if not, then most likelly I won't be able to make it up there before the fest. February is booked solid every weekend but March may be possible.
