Yep, lunch and the meeting are both at Dick's Hot Rod Shop as posted by Chad at the beginning of this thread:

March 24 Meeting .Dicks Hot Rod Shop.12:00-2:00. Dick will not be there but his right hand man Brandon will gladly give us a tour of his awsome shop.Check out the link.   http://www.dickscustomhotrods.com/

http://www.dickscustomhotrods.com/2011Site/contact2011.html

Lunch will be a wonderful selection of Subway sandwiches, chips, water, and pop.

We do need to start leaving Dick's shop by 1:45 p.m. as the right hand man needs to be out of there before 2 p.m.  He's doing this on his own time, and has a commitment he needs to leave for.

Thanks to all who came to the meeting yesterday at Dick's Hot Rod Shop!  And thanks to Brandon (and his dad Rick) and Dave from DHRS for letting us have the meeting there, and giving us the tour.  It is a cool shop!  thumbsup

We did have 4 members actually bring out their cars into the sunshine and they didn't melt!  laughing

We also had 2 new members attend.  Welcome!

I think Bryan and Chad were also taking pics, and here are some I took:

Thank you for posting the pictures Stan.  Family obligations prevented me from attending.  The pictures are almost as good as being there.  I have had the Chevelle out twice.

I really haven't seen that many collector cars out yet, but I hope to go for a drive today again.  hyper

Barb, Devon and I went to the Dari-ette on Minnehaha in the '66 last evening for dinner. There was a Mustang club there and we had the ONLY Chevrolet in the lot...thumbsup

  I live across the road from Wagners drive in. They have had the lot filled with classics a few times the last week and a half.cool

Thanks DHRS for hosting us. The floor in that shop is cleaner then my kitchen counters. Im still super jealous they got such a good deal on the old Schwartz chassis that used to be under Randy Johnsons (of street machine of the year and autocross champion fame) 66. Those aftermarket chassis look really nice.

Yes, thank you to Brandon and the crew for being there and letting us tour a complete one stop shop for custom car building. Like he said, the only thing they don't do is build engines or transmissions.

All but one of my pics are junk. Turns out I had the phone set to video so nothing really came through that I can save. Anyone get a shot of their CNC plasma cutting table?

It was good to see the cars that Dick's was working on. It was even better to see the Chevelle's / Camino's from the club. It sure gets a guy motivated.

 I worked at the Dari-Ette in 1977 for about a week. I quit to go to work in construction. But I remember the Dago sandwhich and meatball sandwhich were big sellers.

The Car Hops were fun too. thumbsup
