    VX-O2 meetup LA at the Peterson 2013

    Ok...got a response back. We just need dates and a minimum of 10 people attend with hopefully 10 VX's as well. The VP is trying to reduce the price to $35 per person for the Vault tour which is usually $2500 with the new ownership. I'd like to propose 1/26/13, but that might be too early for people to commit. Would that work? Please let me know ASAP. Otherwise, we can also shoot for 2/16/13. I need to propose firm dates for the Petersen museum. For more info, it's at www.petersen.org and the museum is in LA.
    Call me a geek, or maybe even nerd, but face the facts, we da ones be rulin' this world!

    Bye the way, this might be my last time trying to set this up. If there's someone that still wants to scan the VX-O2, let me know too. We might not get another opportunity. I'm also inviting VX-O2 designers to attend.

    Baldwin, I give you much credit for organizing this and wish I could join in!! I have family in Woodland Hills, was just out in LA and at the Rose Bowl grounds day before the big event taking kids to the Kidspace Museum. Actually saw actor Neal McDonough there. I did make a point to go to the Petersen Museum, as I said in my post here (http://www.vehicross.info/forums/sho...threadid=23097), I got a blank stare and a "don't know what you're talking about" when I asked the whereabouts of the Isuzu VX-02, etc, etc to an actual experienced "vault" tour guide who knew just about every vehicle there. It was like either I asked about where the spaceship from Roswell was or how to get to the basement in the Alamo (joking). I was in the "vault", no Isuzu's at all were there, plenty of other rare and expensive vehicles though. Perhaps its hidden away in another part not accessible during their now open vault tour, I don't know, but I'd double check to make sure what it is they are saying you can actually see. I only say that because of the response I got when I asked.

    I would love to see the VX-02 in person. Please count me in for 1-26 if it happens, and thank you for organizing this.

    Not me...

    Don't think the trip from Chicago is in the cards, but Cecilia's dad is excited about the possibility... We will see if he chimes in and posts here on VX.info.
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    My 2 cents...It wouldn't be me this year, but some of the Moabites might possibly drift west, either before, or after the event.

    It would be that many more folks who were closer to Cali than usual...

    I'd like to go. But the 26th is way too soon for my schedule. The later date, 2/16, would probably work for me.

    Later date is better for me too. I have to go to Sacramento sometime in the next few months so I might be able to finagle a layover in LA. The more time to work the angle the better though.

    I'll give the Petersen the Feb Date and keep you all posted. If you can get more people in the know about the event, it'll help validate our club presence. If we have a ton of VX's show up, it might make it easier for a future event especially if I can get Isuzu to show up too...or whatever is remaining for them. Would be great to shoot for 20 VX's showing up.
