Just reading the thread for OCTO 2008 on TS and was thinking that we should gather up the wagons and trek down to southern California for a fest of some description in '09. I'm thinking that if we start thinking of the logistics of it now, maybe three or four of us can convoy down for something sometime next year/
Anybody else think it's manageable?

I don't see why not. The trip to the show this year in Rosie had to be one of my favourite roadtrips I have ever done. Something about blasting across the desert in a 23 window with the roof open and the sun shining in...priceless. ;D If we get a convoy of T2s together that would be super cool.

That sounds like it would be a blast. ...and it would provide me with a new goal to work towards for finising the 54

I'm in.
Maybe I'll try to get the 53' truck on the road for that trip. Nothing could be more impractical that that.
Trev, you had a good time changing wheel bearings? ;D ;D ;D

Trev, you had a good time changing wheel bearings? ;D ;D ;D I was thinking the same thing about my truck. That would be bad ass...a couple BD singlecabs and a certain BD standard from Winnipeg all heading south for the show.

Well then come in and pick up your "sinlgecab restoration kit" I ordered for you.
Oh... and BTW, your floor pans are here for the 56' finally.
That could sure be a fun trip.

Looks like the first OCTO is this weekend. None of us are going down I assume. Do they have two or three a year? Anybody up for one later this year? I still hope to test drive Mango by the end of this month. (This is where you guys wish me luck )

Not that you need it but my fingers are crossed. Can't wait to see the Mango out in the wild!

Mangos all deserve to be in the "wild". Captive ones don't have the same flavour ;D

How's the planning going?
I won't be in this year, as I went last year, but if this falls through just letting you all know a group (4 buses) from Edmonton are planning to attend OCTO/CLASIC 2010

I don't think it's happening this year...too much going on. Maybe next year?
