CT HHR Owners

There has to be at least 3 or 4. The Chevy dealer near me seems to be selling a few.

The one near me is only 2 miles away and I know they have sold at least a dozen since they opened their new location about 4 months ago.
Its a really nice place.

I'd like to "but" I already had plans made well in advance. I think I would have enjoyed it.
But thanks for making me aware of it Jesse.

I'm in New London CT and will likely go to the weekly Ocean Beach Monday night car shows. Usually I show up with the two Corvairs and a couple of youg'ens. No rear seat belts in the 'Vairs unless I weld in support plates and buy the belts. Front belts in both, but if I want to take my wife, our child and a friend, we need two cars to be safe and legal.
With the HHR I can pack'em all in, show up and still have a fun car to talk about!
Ray, where in CT are you? I'm practicaly in RI!

Robert, I live in Plainville. I'm Sandwiched between the west side of New Britain and the east side of Bristol. I-84 runs right through Plainville.

I've been to Ocean Beach a few times. Fished a lot around Fishers Island and out at the Race. Drank a few beers at the Firehouse on Bank Street.

I wasn't aware they had a car show at Ocean Beach.I may have to stop down and check it out some monday night, as long as they don't shut down to early in the evening. (I work until 5:30) A nice evening ride for the wife and I.

Regards, Ray

Thanks Robert;

I will check out the one at dinosaur park in July, as I will be on vacation at that time. I will be staying at a campground in the area and it is only ten or fifteen minutes from there. Looks like New London, Norwich, and Waterford will all be good around the same time.
Davids Place across from Dino Park is a great place to eat.:twothumbs

That's our routine. Play at the dino park then feed at David's place!
Yum!

We will likely see you there. We will be packing for a four day convention in Hartford that week, but should be able to take a break for a Dino/car show!
If you are in the area at the end of the weeek, the 9'th ( Sat) , Sailfest is going on in New London with a huge fireworks display.

Take care, Hope to catch up with ya!
