Logan's Cruiser - and Now The Rest of the Story

[fourtrax]

Hey all Garrett here, Since I don’t have my own Mud account, I am having my dad post this for me.

I know it had been spoken about many times, but never acted on so, we went and did it.


We convinced (more like twisted their arms) Kenny and Lydia to allow us to take Logan's truck to our house for some maintenance. Looking at the cruiser, over the last few events we noticed it was time time to give it a little love. Our Goal is to get the Monk’s cruiser back to a level that would allow them to enjoy it on more occasions without worry.

There are a number of items that need addressed and it will take some time to get everything completed in a timely matter, We will be working on this list as we have time but, thought it might be a good idea to have a Hamon and open this up to other who might want to pitch in and turn some wrenches on Logan’s Cruiser. I doubt we'll be able to knock everything out in a weekend so there might be another one depending on the progress. We need to get it completed and returned to the Monk’s before Logan’s run. Everyone is welcome and we will take all help.

I have started 2 lists and adding to both as we inspect the Cruiser.





We want to Thank Johnny @GLTHFJ60 for giving up his Friday night to drive us to the beautiful outskirts of Albemarle to pick up Logan's cruiser and haul it back to my house.

[fourtrax]

Jason it's 12:10 where are you? your a minute late already.

 

[erymer]

Would love to pitch in with the labor but that's the weekend of hurricane creek.

 

[jfz80]

Still awaiting payment

Somewhere between kinston and chapel hill nc currently so probably just drove by you guys.

Id be glad to help if it works out with a busy schedule. Might be kinda hard to make it last week now though

7/22 might be a bit more feasible.

Since 91 blinker fluid is NLA Im good for a jug or two of 90w...... just not royal purple

 

[fourtrax]

July 16th or the 28/29th work for me also, I just picked a date a few weeks out to allow time to get some parts in. Garrett and I will be working on shortening the list almost daily as we get time. I need to get it back before Logan's run. heck, stop by about any weekend there are tasks to complete.

 

[jfz80]

Was just referring to title date of june 22/23 aka last week

 

[fourtrax]

LOL, i'll fix that.. Thanks!!

I second that. If you guys are wrenching at your place in Fuquay, I'd like to help. @fourtrax do you guys have the truck for a few days? Those of us going on the Hurricane Creek trip can probably help once we get back if the truck is still there after the 23rd. I could show up sooner than the HAMOM to help out too. Let me know.
