Anyone have any Ranger parts to sell/trade or looking for anything?
I could use a fuel pump for the ‘96 if anybody has a working fuel pump laying around.

I also have a headache rack I build that I’m not using anymore I’d be willing to park with if anybody wanted one.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Alright. I'm at Kodak, TN. Home of the largest Buc-ees. This is where I meet Jim later tonight to transfer TRS-2. Until then, I'll check out Buc-ees, get some dinner and maybe look around Bass Pro Shop or Smoky Mtn Knife Works, or...

My credo
it is easier to fix and understand than "her"
The suck is I will be on the party bus going to Jersey..going right by...

with what I am doing at home now and the doctor ....no way to get bronco there....I was holding out hope to meet the bus on 80 after dropping off my junk. But Zoie is going with us and that changed the dynamic. Remember it's young bob's 18th birthday as well....he is a bit pissed his mom is not going. I am shocked by that for some reason.

The super duper suck....due to these changes.....may not make fall round up either...and won't be ready for the dream cruise either.


But I am doing what I can.

The baton has been passed. Beautiful, cool, dry day all day until 20 minutes before Jim got here. Then rain

How do you back up this mess?

Never put off ‘til tomorrow what you can put off indefinitely
Wow, you guys are quite the crew. i’m just catching up on this link, I wasn’t getting the updates. I’m loving all the energy. I needed some energy because my thing is not going so well, but I will be there. Many long hours, and it won’t be finished, but it will be there.

So I was thinking, it might be nice when I showed up, if all you guys lined up on each side and kind of saluted the Road Ranger or something like that.

Yeah, sweet pea didn’t like that idea either. She came by today in the German rocket, and thought I literally lost my mind putting this all together. when she came by, it was just a frame on Jack stands, no tires, no deck. She’s always been very insightful that way.

I won’t get out at eight in the morning, but I will probably get out by noon. I’m setting up a late arrival at the hotel, and plan on being there bright and early on Friday. Really looking forward to meeting all you guys..

Hey I’m going to be coming to Carlisle just for Saturday. I saw on the event website that online registration is closed, however, you can still register at gate 1 in person. If I just come for just Saturday and park with y’all is that a possibility?
