I would love to go but I will be in New Mexico.

I should be back in time for the trail run. Will someone keep me up to speed on it?

Happy holidays, see you next year.

That's sounds like fun Sam/Codie - never know who is posting. I think it is Sam ...


Alex, great!! I am sure you have some stories to tell.


Ben... Are you going to make it?

I might even have a turbo by then, too!!!

Well, OK, at the least, I should have the turbo adapted to the manifold by then, and a start on sorting out the oil lines, if I don't actually have it all installed.

And yes, I should have some stories. Ask me about the head-on collision on a country road that happened right next to an accident I was working on Tuesday night. I was wishing I was in a vehicle at that point, that's for sure!

He's not anymore...we booted him out! Too darn rowdy and drinks too much!

Example: He just went to Moab and while crawling around under his truck he smacked his head on the rear driveshaft....anger got the best of him and he bit his pinion right off!! The guy is psyco!

Yeah, but isn't that the type of toughness that is required of a Cruiser nut?

Wow, I haven't even started and I'm already starting off on a bad foot! I'm moving to California!

Hey UB, your sig line is out of date BTW... It's very cryptic too.

That's okay, I know you're proud of me

Come on now TJ, it is right down the road from your house. You should be able to make it.

My heater core sprung a leak on the way home!

Anyone have a core they can bring to the meeting?

Don't have a core, but I do have a recommendation: don't buy aatlas1x's heater restoration kits. The foam he uses (at least, the stuff he sent me in May or June) is pretty useless, and mine leaks a lot of cold air all the time from the "fresh air" vent on top. Open-cell foam is not suitable in this application!

Checking road conditions, but I should be there tonight... Might have to chain up or something.

Screw it, it's getting way too cold and icy out. Even the Diagonal is iced up. I don't want to spend 3-4 hours driving tonight...

Sorry, guys. I'll try to hit February's meeting. I don't have class on Thursday nights anymore, so it's way more likely.
