HotRodLadyCrusr · July 18, 2005, 09:30:29 AM

One of the HAMB guys is taking a bunch of us to a junkyard in Kzoo, MI and I thought I'd post the link here incase some of you western Michigan RRTers didn't see the post over there.

I might be able to if I have time. Right now I'm getting everything around to sell my sedan at Louisville. I've got parts everywhere so it might take some doing to get it all together into a sellable pile. :?

So you are going to Louisville then?

I hope to. I need to sell some things. Between a busy work schedule and some life situations to deal with, I'm not sure yet if I can go tho.

I've been in your neck of the woods since Sunday...had some work stuff in Cleveland all week. Had a black on black Dodge Magnum wagon rental car (looked like a gangster car) and got around quite a bit. Ohio isn't as bad as everyone says

Looks like im going to have to pass. I will be in kzoo early in the morning picking up a furnace for the house here but as the rest of the summer has been stuff has come up. I was going to offer my truck to trans port any parts that couldnt be hauled, at least back to jackson but it dont look like its going to work :cry: ... Oh well thats why they call me lucky. Also im bordering on pneumonia again. Seems like I get it every year the weather is like this. Went to the doc got drugs but im feeling like dog doo

. Ill live but it sucks.

I'm taking my Roadster so it will probably rain

Oh yeah, first dibs on all the 32 Ford parts

How far is kzoo from Jackson? :? then it gives me an idea how far it is from home. If I can't make it, can someone keep an eye out for 55-56 Ford wagon parts ie upper & lower tailgates??

Thanks for the link, D. I went out Sat too except your yard looks better (older) then my yard................Frank

It was fun , I'll go back. I think Charlie was there, I saw his car anyway, But never saw him.

Charlie Chops 1940 · July 25, 2005, 09:35:26 PM

When I got done I ran over to Georges in Battle Creek. We had bought some insulation together but we'd never had a chance to split it up til now.

Plus I was giving the new radiator shroud a good road test. Looks like it'll help.
