Good point. I should reevaluate the times after adding stops so that our arrival can remain the same. I was trying to space the stops out so that we could get out and stretch our legs/kick the tires/check the oil/visit the restroom/etc. in addition to getting fuel if needed. Any other...

I think we could use another Rest/Fuel check along I-70 near Bedford, PA or Hancock, MD. Anyone familiar with that area? http://shortlinks.net/yym581

Hey Mike, Could you put Gimpyrobb's name down in O13 ? He and I have split the cost. Thanks.

Re: RE: Re: im comen too That's fine. Just let us know who will be where, so we don't leave anyone behind :lol: The basic route I have laid out is I-70 E starting on the east side of Columbus, OH and continuing on I-70 all the way to Maryland. There will likely be smaller groups joining...

Re: im comen too Hey Gilbert, Glad to have you along. Are you going to be at the Pilot Truck Stop (I-70 and SR 209)Exit 178 ??? I can add a quick stop to the convoy there, or you can just sit on the entrance ramp and fall into the column as we pass. Let me know.

"Participate?" - that's sounds incriminating. It definitely was Gimpy's day. I will let him tell his adventure. It is much more exciting.[thumbzup] I grabbed the M35A2 N/A WO/W. I played it safe and hired a friend-of-a-friend to bring it home on a trailer. 80 miles one way. Pretty...

Well, it's about time. I was wondering when you were going to post some pictures of that "steal"(sic) soldier. BTW: did you pick up your 1/4 mile time from the tower?? :wink:

Hey Cabell, I forgot that we took a picture of your truck, . . . now if I could just remember which one it was. . . .

Yea gimp. That is the one we were drooling over. It was cherry, wasn't it?

Yea John, Looks good. You are making quick progress. You can hear that Aberdeen clock ticking, huh? :wink:

Yeah Kenny, I talked to Cabell, he suggested I try to see what I could source from local sign shops. I just figured I would put out the word here too, in case someone on our route already had them. Dave_McConnell: We'd be glad to have you join us on the new western serial. We have...

Ok, those of you on this western serial: Does anyone have the "CONVOY AHEAD" and "CONVOY FOLLOWS" signs that I can beg, borrow, or buy cheap? I have seen the $100+ signs on ebay and mv dealer sites, but I am hoping someone might already have these that we can use on our way to Aberdeen.

For more info about those vent lines that were originally plumbed to the draft tube: PS Mag Article page 1 PS Mag Article page 2 Thanks again to Bjorn for sharing.

Gimp, Here is the info on the military looking tarps I saw at Orschlens in L’berg: Made in USA Chicago Dropcloth and Tarpaulin Co. 10 oz. Outdoor Use Only Water Resistant, Grommet every 2 ft., Triple thick hems, Double stitched hem and seams 5x7 = $14.99 6x8 = $19.99 8x10 = $32.99 8x12 =...

Well Gimp, You know I normally don't shy away from fabricating just about anything :wink: - but it's all about time vs. money. The intricate gasket shown below was $2.89 from Memphis Equip. It was an easy decision for me.

Jon, I just replaced my oil filter housing with a stock one. (Thanks once again to Kenny (r4x4) !!!My original had a crack in the casting around one of bypass threaded pipe plugs. You will need three flat gaskets, and two o-rings. I got only the gaskets needed from Memphis (they had every...
