Ok Fellow 40's Mudders - I need your Help to make it happen .....

[kevos37]

I have the steering column parts, steering wheel and some FI conversion stuff. With my work schedule it will take 2-3 weeks before I can ship. Probably easiest for me to ship directly to Kevin.

If you wanted to ship it direct, I am "hopefully'' going to be moving in about 3 weeks.

Hi guys, time for an Update .... We have been getting quite a few packages delivered and it has highlighted one small issue and that is matching user names to real names so if you sent me a package if you could please send me a Messages that matches the from Sender on the box to your user name that would be sweet.

After some thought I have also decided to NOT OPEN any of the shipments for the one simple reason that it think it is a more personal touch to allow @kevos37 to see that many people care and un-boxing the parts is part of the enjoyment. Based on that the 40 will leave my shop with the box's still sealed and I will update the list based on what people tell me they have shipped.

I have also received some parts from people who have not said anything on here as they do not wish others to know they are donating as they are donating for the purpose of helping out a Cruiser Brother not to get any for of accolade and for that I think them for their support.

 

[Varty Yo]

Kinda like opening xmas presents!!!

 

[Varty Yo]

I have a heater box id like to donate. Its taken apart but all pices are there for a refurbish if this would help out!

 

[YoYoHo]

All parts are welcome, no heater at the moment so parts are a great start

 

[Varty Yo]

Ok ill box it all up with the heater core and get in in motion from up here in Canadaland

@YoYoHo
So what’s your estimated time of first leg of delivery of the cruiser ?

 

[YoYoHo]

I can drop it to you anytime you are ready to do Leg 2 . Someone mention PWC or something but I have no idea what that is.

If you wanted to ship it direct, I am "hopefully'' going to be moving in about 3 weeks.

Kevin,

PM me the address where you are moving to so we can ship direct.

 

[kevos37]

Kevin,

PM me the address where you are moving to so we can ship direct.

I will send you the new address once I get moved in if that's okay.

thank you
Kevo

I was just getting to start to know @kevos37 during the

@crockett 's Tables in the months prior to the Camp-Fires tragedy

we spoke by phone several times while trading parts & shared a Common love for Anything Toyota &

Lure for the Never know when moment a new table would pop up , we compared it to a Casino like Rush

and he coined the nick-name Crockett's - Casino



Kevin is " Good People "

Wow... I opened up MUD this morning and seen all this activity! Thats just Awesome!! I am stoked to get the opportunity to get going on another cruiser.

Because Paradise is such a mess (and that does not look like its going to change for a long long time). It looks like we may be relocating to Sutter, CA. The new residence will have a shop. I'm pretty sure this move is going to happen, but we all know how plans go.....

Thank you everyone for your generosity and kindness (especially YoYoHo)

Kevo

Pay it forward ... I have been lucky in life and when I see someone like Kevo who did nothing to end up in a situation like he did then I can't help but think how I would feel if my Shop and House burnt down ... I know getting him a Pile of 40 Series stuff won't fix it but my gut feel is showing him the community cares and are willing to get off their Ass and make a real effort is just as important as the parts.

I have a few surprises in store to go with the deal so hopefully his first piece of New garage Art will not only put a smile on his face for years to come but remind him that even when your world goes to s*** there are still enough good people in society that are willing to lend a hand that it ain't all bad.

All that being said I can say for sure that one guy dropping off a beat up old cruiser ain't real special, when a community comes together and can drop of parts and wishes from many .. now that is when a small idea becomes something special.

I am keen to get as much of the big stuff as possible as if it isn't local to me maybe we can arrange pickup on the way through ????

 

[65swb45]

I guess @RodrigzCrzr is on his way over to pick up the seats and the EFI kit from @Downey .

 

[65swb45]

Done.

 

[YoYoHo]

I guess @RodrigzCrzr is on his way over to pick up the seats and the EFI kit from @Downey .

Last I heard yes or going to grab it on the way through.

Ironically it was fires that started all this and now it is the Damn raining which is slowing it down. We have been getting flooded, streets closed, roads washed away and school bus's not running etc and it is still pissing down.

@kevos37 should have his new address shortly and then we can look at a drop off. I would like to get it happening in the next few weeks as Race Season is in full swing and pretty sure the Mexican 1000 Cars will start rolling in for last minute love and upgrades which will take me out of a road trip till after April.

 

[RodrigzCrzr]

@YoYoHo
I did pick up parts for Kevo’s rig from Marks place. I have them here in my garage now.
Give me a date so I can get the trailer ready and lined up.
Sitting on go here!
