Any NorCal Groups out there?

[71'Express]

Hello all. Looking to see if there are any Volvo Northern California groups out here, in the Sacramento specifically but any NorCal is fine too. Meetups, drives etc.

Every Volvo owner I talk to on the streets never knows of any groups. Hopefully there is something out there.

Yeah I've tried to look at the Sac chapter website last month and it's no longer up and the Facebook group doesn't seem to post very much. Davis 2024 and Davis 2022 are the last posts. Seems kinda of sparse. Does the Sac chapter communicate somewhere elee?

I fly out to Washington at the end of this month to pick up my next Volvo and then I will drive it back. I'll be stopping in at Swedish Relics in Oregon on the way home.

There’s a few of us here
I’m in Oroville and gf lives in sac.

Mark Baldwin used to organize a bunch of events around sac years back but he passed away. From time to time VCOA organizes something outside of the annual Davis meet


Good place for our local folks is here

Alright thank you.

Alright thank you.

I can think of 20/25 of us within a short drive of sac about 10? In sac

If you need help with 122/140/1800/240/850 I can help.

Glad there are a few around. I don't want to jinx it but I should be picking up a 145 at the end of this month.

Can you help with my 700?

careful what you ask for.... "help" is in the eye of the beholder.

Jack loves my 760, he has touched it to put parts in it, he tells me if rims would look good on it, and his prodigy Jimmy has said my car looks pretty good for a 700 and has even driven it.

I made Sydney open that hatch

I’ll help you get rid of it

There’s a couple Volvo people on the coast, and always down for a drive if you come this way. I might not be in a Volvo, but cs. Still keep up.

Speaking of which, when is the next repair party?

And we should try for once a month.

 

[Pietercc]

Next weekend is part out weekend for the 94 940t as of right now

Soon I hope, we gotta strip a 940 for the crusher, and play Legos with a 242 and 2 245s.

@71'Express ^^^^ could be a good chance to come down and meet everyone. We could always use another handy your also free to just hang out and bullshit. There is usually beer, chips, and wienies, too.

 

[71'Express]

I'd love too but I am heading out to Washington this Monday to pick up my Volvo. Not sure when I will be back. Going to stop at IDP and Swedish Relics to name a few. If anyone wanted me to pick up an order at IDP to save on shipping let me know. I should be at IDP on either Monday or Tuesday. Chris Delano the president knows I am coming.

 

[Pietercc]

We will likely be doing things this weekend and the weekend after since @AnthonyHardy2 has 2 cars that need to be parted out. He needs to list the part outside under the wanted tab
