Workshop looks awesome @Jdc1. Would be surreal to have that much space for stuff.

Thank you, funny that I was just walking around staring at the shop and thinking to myself that Ill have to stay pretty strategic on layout so that there will be enough space to work comfortably.

Gotta shout out Rubber City Land Cruisers in The Cleveland / Akron area. Jesse is as solid as they come. My 60 needed a pretty robust mechanical baselining to correct leaky exhaust manifolds, rear main, oil pan gasket, and so much more. I also finally got the H55 installed.

I feel like I have been wawling around with a Lego in my shoe for 10 years and Jesse took it out. I had no idea how much fun these are to drive when they are as sorted as mine is now. Picked up huge performance and drivability gains. It's silly how much I enjoy driving this thing now that the stumbling / hesitation / drifting / leaking / spitting / bucking is a distant memory. My only complaint... with all of that corrected and the truck running so quiet and smooth, my turn signals somehow got really loud.

Great communication throughout. 10 out of 10 recommend. Please add to the gsheet.

Time is flying by, busy spring. HQ is moving forward. 62 left better than it arrived and the Mule is almost done with Phase 1. Will be having an open house/gathering later this summer. We have mechanical openings in May if you need anything

I knew I had seen this somewhere other than Stan Hywet! I remember seeing this post and your website shortly after you posted this.
I met you today at Stan Hywet. We talked pretty early on in the morning. I was the younger guy wearing the judges polo with the 85 Toyota Pickup, 86 4runner, and 94 LC.

Great to meet you. Your 40 series is stunning and your dad's is super cool!

Crazy how time flies. The summer started with a class win at the Cincinnati Concours followed by a 70s production class win at the Father’s day Stan Hywett show vs some gorgeous domestic cars.

Head down and it’s almost September. Have been blessed to have been trusted to work with some pretty great trucks.

For anyone that is interested, Oct. 5th the Canton Cars and Coffee will be 4x4 themed. I’ll be picking the 5 featured vehicles and should be a great time.

This would be a great time for an Akron/Cleveland and surrounding area Mud gathering to piggyback off of the mornings events at Royal Docks. Details soon. Let me know if you think it’s a good idea.

If the weather is nice, I think it'd be fun to make the drive up.

Details on the Cars and Coffee:

Canton Cars and Coffee Presented by Two Brothers AGI

Anyone interested in doing an “official” meetup after?

 

[aging fleet]

@Jdc1, if I make the drive, I'd be up for something afterwards. I need to sample one of the stouts at Royal Docks too.

Good times on the event horizon….Are you still looking at a “gathering” in the vicinity of RCLC HQ? Asking for a friend..
