Indeed! Fortuna has the Auto-Expo (It was called Autorama before this year). People come from all around for this one (its a big show for the area). I plan to enter one of my cars next year. Check it out here:

One of these days, we can get the group in that area together. I am in that area once in awhile to visit my brother who is a podiatrist at John Muir. He lives off of Treat as well. I know there is a group that meets over at the shopping center on Fridays. That might be a good place to meet up.

Nothing like reviving a 5 year old thread and have people jump right in to make you smile. ;)

BTW Everyone, I would like to propose a FABO get-together on October 11th @ Jimmy's 21st Old Car Picnic in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. We can all park together, BBQ and BS about Mopars and have some good times. Keep an eye out for more info. Perhaps we can make this our annual event for the Bay Area.

That sounds like a great plan Ben.. Count me in already on the calender..
