For some reason The board won't let me post on this again, so heres an update It's on for sure, talked to butch today, and he said go for it. We can meet at my house, about 9am, if you like, it's only a couple miles to the yard from there. If you need directions, email me and let me know where you are coming from. I have also set up a tour of a buddy's shop, he has several trad cars, and a few high tech cars, interesting place, we can do that after the yard. I count four possibly six people so far, is that all we can come up with? I found out today, I have to work that afternoon, but I think Fatcat will take over for me when I have to leave. This should not cause any great problems.
Frank, a grand tour of your compound is worth the drive all in itself. Looking forward to the adventure.
It is basically straight up I-75 from Dayton to State Route 2 and then straight west on Route 2. Mapquest shows it as about 155 miles The date is Sunday Nov 16th
i hoped the road devils would hear about it. you guys gonna make it? i'll have 180+ to drive maybe, depending on what crazy-*** routes i gotta take to get to rooster's joint.
Josh, you oughta see ifn ya can get Shawn to come up! Or somebody, Anybody, see if they can shake Strohl outa his funk and get him to at least Attend a car function!!! He's on yer way too if ya go thru Columbus. At least he said the site will be back up!!! Now if we can get his sorry *** UP! Dan, ya readin this? Yeah, and WTH, where's Patrick on this thread?
Oops I lost a post some how....guess I'll re-type it... I'm coming in along I-90 for 145 miles from the east. If anyone wants to hookup let me know. I've been to the yard several times before and this will be the first time for meeting Enjenjo for me. If anyone needs a HAMB relay to NorthEast Ohio speak up now! When the day is done I got...yep you guessed it...145 miles back home. Last I saw Enjenjo had a FREEBIE 283!
will do, man. i'll try to say something to him, either here, email, or if i make it down to see his shop on the 15th. looking forward to it, fellas...
An update, we are going to have some eats here, breakfast at 9 am, sausage sandwitches, donuts and some other junk, coffee and juice. Also, in addition to the free 283, I have some other free stuff, including at least one banjo rear in servicable condition, missing hubs and brakes.
Roaddevil...ya up for crawl through a yard and a shop tour? I met you at the Lakewood show. Sounds like it is going to be a small but cool turnout on this event....
Be here in the morning, breakfast at 9 am.sausage and egg sandwiches, and breakfast tacos, and donuts.
Ain't gonna be able to make it, BUT.....If any of yous sees a 241, 331, or a 325 Hemi....(yeah I know) that you p*** on please email me a phone number to get a hold of the yard...I need one for a swap for the 46 truck. Thanks and have fun!!!
I want details and photos. I've heard thru the g****vine everyone had an awesome time and LOTS of photos were taken by Curly and Quickrod. So where are they? I wanna see
I took pics but some of them are O/T so I'll have to post later...after I sort and set up the album. Was it worth the ride? Hell yeah. We had a great time! Them breakfast Burritos were what I needed. When we got to Ron & Rich's I thought Chromed Rat and I were gonna have to wrestle for the crumbs in the bottom of the bag of Jalapeno Potato Chips. Rooster...on the way home I ripped one off that put all your bombs to shame. Markie and Quickrod had the windows open and *****ed for at least 10 miles Did I mention the breakfast burritos were damn good? Gonna build an English Wheel next week while I'm on Thanksgiving break. That damn Rich has everypart I need and no desire to get rid of any of them!!!
Yeah, well Curly, I think the wind had a dispersion effect on My bombs!!! I thought CromedRat was gonna puke when I ripped the first one off in the car comin up!!! I had a GREAT time!!!! It was good to see new and already aquainted freinds!!!! That benchtop wheel really shows well in person don't it! I wasn't even gonna bother downloading it from the RRT plans till I could 3-dimensionalize them. AWESOME, just one of the many things I gotta say make ANY trip to the "Franks" shop worthwhile! The rest was bonus! Breakfast was Excellent, and thanks again to enjenjo, FatCat, Butch and Ron for their hospitality. But Rich ****S!!!! To have that much shizdilly sittin around for the cuttin at our age is muy beyond. Don't suppose I'd sell any of it if I were so fortunate, either. Of course he Is close enough to **** up to for them parts in a trade at some point. AND he mentioned the freind with a fresh load of mag wheels to sell there at the end too! That wouldn't hurt HIS hording any, if you anteed up for some of the stash! If this house deal comes through, I'm hosting for a BBQ and tour of Bob's in the spring.
This is the link to the j-yard & shop pics. So as not to offend some I put a disclaimer in to be PC and it seems that it hasn't been getting the hits that it would have normally...Oh well...I was there and had a great time. Now that I can put a face and character to a name it makes it much easier to converse with some of the Buckeyes on the board. http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/dshinault796@sbcglobal.net/lst?&.dir=/Ohio+HAMB+Sweep&.src=ph&.begin=9999&.view=t&.order=&.done=http%3a//f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/dshinault796@sbcglobal.net/lst%3f%26.dir=/Ohio%2bHAMB%2bSweep%26.src=ph%26.view=t I'm kickin' myself in the *** for not getting some pics of the woodie in enjenjo's shop. Talk about cool! The other post was by me and I think I'm an official thread/post killer these days Especially when it says O/T pics
Bye the way what ever happened to Safarinut guys? I know I saw him on 20 between Enjenjo's and the yard. SafariNut are you out there? Man we almost turnaround and followed you cuz we thought WE were lost! Maybe we should have!
[ QUOTE ] Well guys, was it worth the drive? [/ QUOTE ] It was most definitely worth it Frank. Thanks for the grub and good time. It was a great group of guys to spend the day with. Walking thru a junk yard with you is a real educational experience.
He Emailed me, got lost and never hooked up. Next time I'll give him my phone number. I could have got him to pinstripe the woody and piss the owner off. Actually he does want to do some artwork on the doors, so it looks like an old resort car.
let me start by saying the next person who gives curly a ******* burrito and he's ridding with me,i'm kickin there ***,cause somthing crawls up him and dies....as a new guy,i could'nt have asked for better people to meet off this site for the first time.enjenjo,and fathack were more than hospitibal and chromerat,rooster and the other guys were a blast.we GOTTA do that again soon,between curly and i we could show you guys a days worth of junk up here...lets do it again asap!!!...im out quickrod
