Northern/Central Arizona Members?

[Hogan]

Hey all,



Just thought I'd pop up a thread here to see how many other local/semi-local people there are around here. I know of at least one in my area, are there more??



I'm in the Prescott area, seeing as I've gotten together regularly with people in the past with common vehicle interests (Classic Mustangs and Jeeps), I thought I'd do the same here and see if anyone else is interested in some informal get togethers. BBQs, wrenching sessions, what have you.



So, who else is around? Oo.

Hogan.

I'm in Mesa for a couple of months till my job in Springerville gets going. Still it would be fun to try to get a few people together and just hang out for an afternoon or whatever. I was in the Boston area last year and those guys have a hell of a good time running all over the NE. We should do the same.

JimOo. Oo. Oo. Oo.

I am in Scottsdale, but spend a good deal of time just below the Rim. I too would love to get together for a barbeque and some beers sometime.

Jim in Globe

This is Jim in Mesa soon to Jim of ShowLow. I am a member of the electrical union in Globe and spent the weekend at the Blues fest.

I go up to Globe several times a month. We need to hookup. Hell for that matter we should all hookup. I'm not working so I'm free most all the time. Somebody who has limits on their time suggest a place and time and we all can try to get together.

Oo. Oo. Oo.

Directions to A2Z Diesel

Tried to put a map on here to help everybody get to A2Z Diesel but Iwasn't having any luck, but if you go to any search engine and type in the address it will come up. Here are some directions, take the 202 freeway east and get off on McKellips and take Mckellips east about a mile, as soon as you cross Center Street on your right will be a Automotive Plaza with a Aamco transmission shop and A2Z is in the southeasr corner of this plaza. Hope this helps and I'm looking forward to seeing you all there.

a convoy ?

anybody in NW Phoenix wanna meet up for the drive down to Mesa? Suggest a place, I'm near Metrocenter. BTW, an order of 30 ball caps with TDR AZ would net us a cost of about 9-10 bucks each.



or how about the recently advertised
