    Survey! Northern Michigan event??

    What do you guys think about the West Branch area? I was just poking around the map and that would be very central to most of our members.. I am talking for a parts swap this year.. Not the SS Rally that this survey is about. I think I will start another thread so they dont get all jumbled up.

    New truck new issues

    That sucks pappa G! Did they take the Tachograph apart like that too? I am not a diesel mechanic but I know Dave P has had the top end gone through on a couple of his Cummins engines.. They get loose and klattery with wear.. I have no doubt that the pro's will chime in and help you locate and...

    Survey! Northern Michigan event??

    I think to have double events in the same place might be counter productive. I am thinking a big warehouse type building. It would be to hard to drag in axles, fenders and such into his nice game room. Clare is a good location though.. I was thinking maybe Gaylord.. Close to I-75.. Keep the...

    Which wrecker is this?

    This is just a guess. And it does not look to be in bad shape.. But I would say.. $1500 would be a steal and I would not pay more than $3800.. Scrap is up so at 35 thousand pounds x ? a ton could ad up fast.. It seems in real good shape.. Not allot of rust and even with the cab exsposed it is...

    Survey! Northern Michigan event??

    Thanks Dave.. I agree with spacing from the Custer event... I have heard some rumblings about moving that event? I guess they cleaned up all the base roads and will not allow civi campers on site? This is all rumor but many have complained and told me they will not return.. Didnt you go last...

    Which wrecker is this?

    Member "Staging Lots" ??

    RE: Stage I also wanted to ad. Its a communication thing too.. I am always willing to pick up lots for others if I can fit them on my truck. This brings the high price of shipping down to earth for all parties. Maybe a look what I won section instead of a look whats coming up for bid...

    RE: Stage You have put forth a great idea. I only wish I lived close to some active GL bases. This would be fun for me and I in no way would care if someone outbid me on anything.. Its as simple as the one with the deepest pockets wins.. Many times because I have lost my mind I buy stuff far...

    RE: I have been looking for this kit.. I have found them for sale on ebay before.. I think Revel made a M543 also.. They just jump up high in price and I rather buy 5 others for the money..
