Good afternoon everyone,
I’m doing this on my fone so I’m not sure what I’m doing.
However, I really h8 to say this but I will not be able to make it to SAS this year.
I have an rv spot reserved at KOA if anyone wants it.

Thanks

Man, I hate to hear that, Roger. I hope all is well.

I got all the rest in with the help of @Flatlanderfj40 using #21 nylon twine. Will try adding soap lube for the corners. Thanks!

I used this putting my glass back in after putting my roof back on my 60. Worked like a charm. The metal piece makes seating the rope really fast.

Beautiful out right now

You could always go North of Questa and catch us in the thriving metropolis of Ft Garland.

We drove through there Thursday evening on our way to Denver, it hasn't really changed a bit in the last 20 or 30 years.

Customer came in with a flat and said ‘also, some sort of noise down there if you can check that out’…packed (almost) and dinner prep underway; 12lb butt heads to the smoker at 6am

Now I know why you end up in grandma gear going over Monarch pass....

 

[Broski]

Gave the Cruiser a once over today ready for the ride of shame 1000+ miles on the trailer and then hit some trails with the good folks of SAS
Can’t wait should be there Saturday

 

[Flatlanderfj40]

Couldn’t help wondering over to @Polecat garage. Another one almost ready

 

[CruiserTrash]

Final torque and fluid checks done. Emergency/spares bag packed. She’s ready.

Heading to the Flat Tops north of Glenwood Springs this weekend for a little pre-SAS R&R if anyone else would like to meet up and camp. Keeping it small and so far it looks like just us. We’ll camp Friday and Saturday, then head out Sunday morning and go to Ouray. Saturday might look like exploring the network of roads or a hike, or both. Give me a shout.

July 5, 2023. Indian Camp Pass.

Anybody have a 60 Series alternator they want to part with? Looking to buy one as a spare and figured one of y’all 60 people had one you could bring to Ouray.

I just wrapped up a dual battery system install and want to make sure I have a spare alt since there’s more stress on this one now. I’ve got a couple NOS regulators, so really just looking for a good alternator. Thanks!

Switch to the 3FE 80amp set-up.

27060-61090-84

Toyota remains are still available. Swap out a plug and different belt and mod to the alt adjuster arm.

 

[John McVicker]

Believe it or not Maureen & I are already here at Ouray KOA. Came a week early with some friends from home. They will be leaving this weekend & we will stay behind anxiously awaiting SAS8. See everyone soon!

Did Mineral Creek yesterday. Great views.

 

[BombCity]

Nice, John! We will see y’all Sunday.

Just FYI for folks traveling through Amarillo. There has been construction on Westbound I-40 coming into the city. It tends to turn into a parking lot most of the day. Here’s what it looks like in front of our offices at I-40 and Quarter Horse Drive right now. It’s a mess and you may be delayed a bit.
