Hamom for father of soldier killed in Iraq- Part Un

[boombapslappy]

Build site is:

1260 Greensboro Hwy
Watkinsville, GA 30677

I'll be there sometime Friday evening with the UC canopy and the box-o-sponsor-banners and some parts.

THE PLAN FOR SATURDAY'S ESCORTED RIDE:

WHEN: SATURDAY, 1/16/10, 11AM MEET AND LINE UP

We will meet at the Wal-mart Super Center...

30983 Hwy 441 South
Commerce, GA 30529
706-335-7563

Meeting time is at or about 11am. We will leave, with an escort from the Patriot Guard Riders at 12pm. The manager of Wal-Mart told me that there is a Murphy's gas station on the same property and that there is lots of unused parking between there and the Wal-Mart.

Look for this cruiser:

If you have questions please feel free to contact me through email: boombapslappy at gmail dot com

SEE YOU THERE!!!

Thanks Josh. I put a link to your post above in the main post, post #2.

I'll plan on skedaddlading out to come in with the PGR escort. Do you have an estimate on the # of trucks that will be in the escort?

I have an air cleaner off of a 83 60 that we can use.

That will fit, send it over to ACC for power.

I have one at the shop that we can clean and powder but it belongs to a customer so I would have to replace it. IE I will trade you your dirty one for a newly Powder Coated one.

Mine is from a 1980 I believe, and there is a difference from the 40 models and 60's I think it is the distance to the carb not the height.

"I can't do it cap'tn, I don't have the power!"

"Send it on over to ACC son, they'll hook ya up!"

I had to read that three times to find out that I am a dumb ass and can't spell at 7am.

Just go off the phone with Oscar from Pacol ( PACOL Online - (678) 910-8674 ). He is donating his time and materials to take the body and all sheetmetal this spring (or whenever we can get it to him) sandblast the whole body and replace any sheetmetal that needs replacing with new parts that he sells.

Then all we will need to do is have it painted and then we could sometime this summer have another HAMON and put the body and all the parts back on.

Just amazing.

Thank you Oscar for this huge gift.
