Visit the US in September/ October and looking for funny contacts. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

GerhardH · 06-21-2019, 02:33 PM

Hi Chevy Fans, I'm a German ships engineer and will visit in September/ October the US. ( more south regions). It should be a low cost trip to come back to the basics. I would like to meet Chevy fans and just people, to visit the country but also typical yank yards regional chevy oldtimer events and so on. If you need help on your project and spend a bed ( for a day or two or just a beer 😂😎or I can help to howl heavy parts, can escort you on the road or whatever else it would be a great adventure.

I would be happy if you send me a private mail, depends on the reaction I will plan my trip from San Francisco to NY .

Greetings and take care Gerhard.

When your in New York give me a call . I am a brewer. Have won many gold metals for my beers and I'm in the back woods of ny. Come fir hunting season

cornerstone · 06-21-2019, 11:21 PM

I admire your spirit of adventure Gherard! If you come as far south as Ft. Worth, Texas, you're welcome here. My wife and I were just talking this morning about possibly opening our home to guests, something like AirBnB. One of our sons has married and moved out so now there is a vacant room in the house.

Then we need to head north to meet Mark in New York and try some of his GOLD MEDAL BEER!

Don't forget to show me your chevys please!!!

Now I'm looking/ asking for accomodation. As the trip is called back to the roots i like to stay with friends or really cheap bedrooms. Maybe you have some hints for me.

Looking forward to see you all, maybe you are able to show me a typical american yankyard too, hope we have fun together and for sure will post here about the trip.

Check. I will keep that date in mind - would be a lot of fun. I have vacation scheduled through Sept 2019 and expect to plan vacation for Oct 2019 through March 2020 in the upcoming few weeks. If you need tickets before I can commit to go I bet there are other locals who can step up but I endeavor to get that time.

GerhardH · 07-12-2019, 05:24 PM

High Deadhead
Ok then let say I try to pick up 1 ticket for my self and we are looking forward to meet us before or after the game if possible.

Found out is not so easy to get a accommodation during the game, but got it

GerhardH · 07-13-2019, 06:48 PM

Ha my buddy Mondo spend a bed and a bbq, great hospitality.
I'm so excited to see him.
