Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
Adam I have know idea how to make more than a one question survey. But if I'm limited to one question this should get the ball rolling. I guess I will check for other places on the net that can setup to take surveys depending on what happen with this unless you have a place.

Vette(s): 1978 Base model, White w/red int. L-48, 4-speed, wide ratio. Has 82 CE wheels. New HEI & LT1 Headers now. UPDATE, NEW Tremic 5-SPEED installed. 2007 C6 Yellow Conv. Loaded. UPDATE-Sold Sept. 2021 2016 C7 Yellow Coupe, Z-51, lots of other options.
       Hey Guys, I just returned home from a 3 week trip to VT.,N.H. & ME., so I have not seen the suggestions for 2013 till today. I'd like to say not to forget the sights to see around Pueblo, CO., just a few miles South of Colorado Springs. The Royal Gorge is Awesome (I know it's an amusement park now), to stand on that bridge and lQQk down at the train on the tracks by the river is breath taking. Or you can Ride that train and lQQk up at the bridge!!!!!!!!!

   Also, if you stay on US 50 West till it intersects with US 285 North, go 20 miles and take US 24 back to Co. Springs, it is one beautiful ride up between 8000 and 12000 (best I can recall). Just beautiful country and a one day ride!!!!!!

   Just my 2 cents worth, my dad was born in Pueblo and I was there several times as a kid and once in 2007.

Only 17 people have voted.
Does that mean that west coast members aren't interested in a gathering?

18 now.

I didn't respond earlier because I never opened the topic...  I thought it was an old topic.

Hi folks,


I voted in both.  Gilbert started one and Adam started one. 

Yes I want to attend.  Yes I will drive Baby to So Cal AZ or CO.  Don't think she'll
make the trip to the Far North.  Yes I think my wife will come too.

First choice Flagstaff/Sedona AZ  second choice San Diego, CA

Vette(s): SOLD - "The Toy" - '70 Convertible
SOLD - "The Beast" - '90 ZR-1 (#682)
SOLD - "Betty" - '28 Ford Model A Tudor
Sold - "BLKBRRD" - '78 Pontiac Trans Am
"BLUBYU" - '04 Coupe
Would really like to come, but will have to see what is left in the travel time and budget after spending 2 weeks in Hawaii in March. 
 
Flagstaff/Sedona is just short of 1,600 miles from "The Ranch", Durango is just short of 1,300 miles, and Colorado Springs is about 1,000 miles.  Distance, travel time, $$$, and vacation time balance will come into play.

I would come but would have to tow or come without my C3.  My wife is not up to driving long distances in it.  

My only issue is time off.  I get so little of it now.   But I surely would like to meet some C3VR people.

As far as the western region goes there is not a lot of us active forum members that I can see. We just need to get more members out here.
