Mike gets a special print of the event all signed by the attenders!

booksmitty 05-08-2006, 12:49 AM nice pics sindy,,, very nice
still wanting to know who the guy is that had the visor on his HHR
His name is Bud. He call his HHR "Harvey"
He live in NorCal, Bay area. He got the visor in San Bernardino. Had it put on there. Got the brows there also. He has a silver dash kit put in and pin striping by the doors and the door jams.
Had a lot of mods. Not sure if he posts here but we in NorCal talked about forming a network together, so you'll hear from him soon.:cool:
He's a nice guy and has a lot of interest in the HHR.
Tokyo 05-08-2006, 12:56 AM Looks like you all had a good time!!
I would have really liked to join the Solvang Run, but the Left Coast is too far away...
Regardless, thanks Mike for hosting this event, and thanks to the participants for your excellent coverage and pictures of the festivities!!

That was Bud Hill - he doesn't post here. Got the visor from your friends at California Cruisers :lol:
They screwed the outside edges to the window pillars and silicone sealed the center of it right to the windshield!
Pics of his car can be found on their site HERE (http://www.californiacruisers.com/new_page_31.htm).
Hope it helps,

Hope it helps,
thought that is where he got it,,, the eyelids and the visor looked toooooooooo familiar
i will wait till someone else has one for the HHR

That's really cool Charles! :thumb:
SIHHR 05-08-2006, 07:09 AM Wow thats a big turnout you guys had. I've been trying to arrange a big meet in the NY/NJ metro for months now. I guess its easier for the Cali people to meet up. But it seems like that most of you live close by.
Firewatcher 05-08-2006, 08:02 AM It appears to me that everyone had a great time! Lots of hot looking rides. Maybe we can do something like that on the real (I mean east) coast! :lol:
BIG JIM WOODMAN 05-08-2006, 08:18 AM That's really cool Charles! :thumb:
MIKE, THAT CHEVY DEALER IS RIGHT NEAR A.J. SPURS, DID YOU GUY EAT THERE? GREAT PLACE TO EAT. SORRY IS MISSED OUT. I'VE PUT ON MANY A CAR RUN IN THAT AREA BEFORE. DID YOU CRUIZE OUT TO THE FALLS? THATS ONE PRETTY AREA OUT THERE.:thumb: LOOKS LIKE EVERYONE HAD FUN.
fenris222 05-08-2006, 08:18 AM What a great job owners. That was really nice to see all those HHRs having fun. Thanks for sharing. SuperDuper!!!:p: :one: :thumb:
HHR DLYT 05-08-2006, 09:38 AM Jim, My husband and I ate at AJ Spurs on Friday night. The food was good but all of the stuffed animals freaked out my 13 year old daughter a little. She has seen them before of course, but not that many in one place.
scaleguy 05-08-2006, 09:44 AM Wow, I am jealous, wish I could have been there. The pics are great!!!
I had my own "show" in the Wisconsin Dells this weekend... I did see a total of six HHRs during the six hundred miles round trip through northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin... I have got to figure out how to post pics because I have a couple of pics that some of you might get a kick out of.

4 Rides came from NorCal. @ from Fresno- about 4.5 hrs, one from the Bay area, at least 6hrs and I came from Sacramento, 10 hrs going (I took Hiway 1 along the coast) and 6.6 hrs back.
Bur it was worth it!

I know AJ's but we didn't eat there. We did a run to Cold Spring Tavern http://www.coldspringtavern.com/ Cool drive. Mike didn't have his map. We took a wrong turn that really was a "right" turn. The turn went up a hill that overlooked Santa Barbara. We had to go to the top as there was no place to turn around. You see some of it on the DVD.

It really doesn't look like it fits very well.Is there a gap on top near the antenna where debris can get stuck?
cj krause 05-09-2006, 08:18 AM It really doesn't look like it fits very well.Is there a gap on top near the antenna where debris can get stuck?
there has to be a gap near the top for wind to get through
not really fond of the silicone idea in the middle, but i guess it did work.
O6ChevyHHR 05-09-2006, 10:35 AM lots of hot rides.
booksmitty 05-09-2006, 11:30 AM It really doesn't look like it fits very well.Is there a gap on top near the antenna where debris can get stuck?
I really like the visor look. It is open in back for air flow. He's had it for a while now and hasn't had any problems I know of. It was put on at the shop where he purchased it, I believe.:cool:
booksmitty 05-09-2006, 11:30 AM Great Photos, Charles!!!!!!!!
SIHHR 05-09-2006, 03:34 PM Where's Mike's pictures. He said he was going to post them and he has not yet. Is he trying to do something fancy?
booksmitty 05-09-2006, 05:50 PM Where's Mike's pictures. He said he was going to post them and he has not yet. Is he trying to do something fancy?
Probably will be included in the DVD, so some may be shown as a promo!
Just a guess. :D
SoCalHHR 05-09-2006, 05:54 PM Where's Mike's pictures. He said he was going to post them and he has not yet. Is he trying to do something fancy?
Sorry, I've been slammed since returning from Solvang and I'm just trying to get caught up. All my pics are very large and need to be resized/cropped. I will try to get pages up on our site soon, but need to take care of biz first.
Hang in there...they are coming! :thumb:
ivtech 05-10-2006, 12:13 AM Thanks Craig and Mike good to meet all of you.
