Yay on the road leaving mt vernon il

Ok guys Im leaving, again thank you for everything, be back on in 5 hours.

 

Happy to see that you are headed out to Cincin.

 

Been watching this thread, glad everything is good, have a safe trip home

 

Are we suppose to talk about him after he left?

 

And Im home what a long trip, started out as a 2, turned into 5 day, the flex plate was destroyed. I will take pics tomorrow and post them.

 

Glad you made it home safe.

I kinda tired, but I want to start on the car. Like a kid in a candy store. Going through the parts that came with it. Lots of old SW gauges. I will wait till tomorrow I guess, but its hard to resist.

 

LOL I've been there!! You have a great starting point to that project!!

Bill

 

we didnt want you here anyway.

Glad your home safe and sound!

 

Nothing against southern Illinois, I was stuck in a hotel room, couldnt leave cause I was worried about my roadster on a trailer, with no lock on it. I heard carbondale was the place to be anyways, not Mt Vernon.

 

But you did have a lady with you - didn't you?

 

I did until sunday after noon, she had to get back for work. We rented her a car and she drove home, I was stuck there no one to talk to, well except for the computer but thats not really the same. Oh by the way I highly recommend Mike Burwell's auto service in Mt. Vernon. I didn't have the tools with me to make the repair and the weather turned a little to cold to do the work in a parking lot. Mike is a hell of a nice guy.

 

Nothing worse than the tow vehicle ****ting the bed on the road. And something as random as a flex plate going blooey on you. Glad you got it sorted out, BTW, how was the room service?

Bob

 

Let me tell the room service at the super 8, 5 star thats all I can say. hahaha

 

Something to look back on and laugh about when your cruising your new car...

 

Time to go work on the new roadster.

 

glad you fixed up and back home.. Life is a journey,, with alot of little detours.. Glad yours was safe.

Glad to hear you got back to town okay. What kind of shape is it in? What do you need to do to get it running? Will we see it in ****ord on Friday nights?
All the best!
Bryan

 

Well to make it a driver it needs wired, plumbed fuel and brakes, needs a master cylinder, brake and clutch, and and some small fabricating to stiffen the body. I will drive it this summer, and make it to ****ord.

 

Glad to hear that you have made it home safely. see ya at the Nats

 

Sounds good, by the way Mike Burwell is a hell of a guy he got me fixed up and on the road when he said it would be done.
