Just wanted to see what kind of response from the Mary-land crowd I could get...

Im at Ft. Meade, 25 min south of B-More, and 45 min North of D.C.
right off 95.....

can I get some love?

im up in parkville baltimore county probably 35 minutes or so from you theres a few other md members as well. nice jeep you ever take it out wheelin?

Every once in a while...sad huh?

It is my daliy driver, and I am in the military, so if something were to happen to it, I would be in a heap of trouble.

Once the blazer is payed off...I am actually going to put it up for sale. It is hard to even consider it, but I NEED something to haul the blazer. Renting from U-Haul everytime I need to move it is a pain in the a$$...

It is hard to put up for sale though, seeing as the time and money I have into it...it is almost like selling your own child :( haha

I'm from Ferndale (Glen Burnie) Hay cableguy0 whats up? Just figured I would make it three from Maryland. Trifflynn I retired from the Navy/Coastr Guard after 27 years. I have a 85 k5 blazer 350 create t400 tranny. Really runs great but only get 9-10 mpg. :hi:

Cool Deal....passes everything but a gas station huh? :metal:

Glad we have someone from Glen Dirty...hehehe

Half Glen Burnie, half Gambrills here. Work in Severna Park.

Hay .030Over. Where at in gb do you line. I know where you work. I'm in ferndale just off of wihalm just past Cromwell Elm school.

Art :hiya:

theres a few more in md besides us and not terribly far spread out either.hafta all get together at a show or something

Up kind of late? I work all nights that why if you look at the times they are all early ams :cool:

I agree cableguy....

would be good to get together and have a coot out or something...

drink a couple cold ones, and talk about TRUCKS/BLAZERS.... :)

You know it is hard to believe there is only 5 of us on this site. When you look at the amount of members. When I drive around and going to work I see a lot of 4X4's on the road, some old some new, some I would never touch. :confused:

i think there about ten guys in md but the other dont post much except for jim 70c10 but i believe hes outta commission because of hand surgery

just out of curiousity...

any of you guys know where I could get a guy to tow a truck for me?
I found a '68 and it needs a clutch...so it needs to be towed home...

just thought I would throw that out there <shrug>

dont know of anyone down that way could always put a hitch on the jeep and rent a trailer :)

Where is the 68 located? I might know someone who might do it, or if it is close I might be able to tow it. Just let me know from where/to. :hmm:

I'm in the part of Maryland that nobody knows or cares about. I'm in LaVale between Cumberland and Frostburg.

I work in Owings Mills But reside in pa. I'm the guy scaring cars off the highway :)

Pasadena represented here. I drive a 05 silverado Z71 crewcab right now. Looking for a 69-72 P/U, to mess with .

I'm in Perry Hall. I have met cableguy0 and gizmo!. Hey harleyd_1903- I have a 71' truck for sale listed in the trucks for sale forum if interested. :)

Hi 70c10, I took a look at the truck, you have for sale. Very nice lookin. Its a bit more than I was wanting to spend right now, But Im gonna check with my banker (wife) and see what the finances look like. :) it dont look like it has power brakes? So i guess they are drum up front? Kinda lookin for a beater i can work on, but but that one would save me alot of work. Ill Let ya know something soon.

It has factory disc brakes that are manual. It's easy and cheap to add a booster. If you are serious about the truck I will give you a really good deal on it. ;) . It's usually cheaper in the long run to buy a truck like this that is already done. :cool:

Im in the process of talkin with the bank. what kinda deal you talking about? drop me a line at harleyd_1903@yahoo.com If ya rather discuss it thru email. PS: are any of yall heading to carlise this weekend? Just wondering .

harleyd_1903- I lowered the price today to $4000 firm. Like I stated in the post, the truck is not show quality but you would still be hard pressed to find one around here as nice for the money. The truck is also currently advertised locally.

Man, this maryland thread is quite. whats everybody up too? Did anyone go to Carlise? I went saturday, the weather was great. Plenty of parts and trucks to be bought. I didnt get either. Im still working on getting finances straight to go look at 70c10's truck. I havent forgot ya 70c10. Is it still available? well thats enough from me, lets here from some of yall. :blah: :blah:

I didn't need anything from Carlisle this year that's why I didn't go. I would have liked to advertise the 71' up there. It's still for sale!. The alternator went up Sunday so I bought a new one last night and hopefully have it in tonight. I sanded and painted the brackets last night.

I'm in Brandywine...I guess I'm the only one from Southern Maryland so far.

Trifelynn- If or when you do put that blazer up for sale, let me know. If I don't buy it I know someone else that probably would.

harleyd_1903- any word from the bank???. I'll come down a little more if your serious about the truck.

Hey 70c10, Right now Ive got $3000 cash put together. Im waitin for some paybacks from a friend. Im serious about the truck, and hope that the money will come together quick. sorry for the hold up. I have the wifes approval also, she likes it. :c2: You can email me at harleyd_1903@yahoo.com If ya want, i check that everyday. let me know whats up if anything changes. thanks Greg

Greg, I emailed you. :)

:hi: from elkton,md

Hello from Mt.Airy.I`ve been thinkin`I would like to get people out here for an easy going cookout this fall.I`m going to Charlotte,but am open to ideas on other weekends.Mt.Airy has a vintage car show in Oct.I`ll find out the date of that.

Hey 70c10, It was a pleasure meeting you yesterday. The truck looks very nice and as soon as my money gets transfered into my account, I will be calling ya. Hopefully like i said wensday at the latest. The wife liked the truck and said it was up too me weather to buy it or not.
Thanks for your time ,
Greg

Greg, it's always cool to meet other board members into these old trucks!. Your wife was very nice also. Your daily driver was absolutely awesome man!. My buddy went to a car cruise in your neck of the woods at Glen Burnie mall Saturday night and said it was over 300 cars there and a few 67-72 trucks. I may have to check it out this coming weekend!.

Any of you coming down next Saturday to Glen Burnie for the weekly car show let me know what you are driving and I'll look you up. I go every weekend and it is just around the corner,

Art

Art, I have never been to it because I never travel down in that area but if I go I will let you know. I heard they have one Friday night in Brooklyn park and Saturday night at the mall. My buddy said the people were all cool down there too. :metal:

The cruise was Packed. I got there at 6pm and it was already packed. Peolpe didnt start leaving till 9ish. but they just kept coming. Ill let yall know if ill bethere this weekend or not. Its up in the air right now. but most likely, i will be. greg

Hay 70c10 looks like we both have Bdays coming up next month. Mine is the 24th. Most have been a great month. I have not been to the one in Brooklyn yet but have been to the Glen Burnie one every saturday since they satrted this year. harleyd 1903. Greg what are you driving down/up there? Don't know what part of MD you are from. Lst me know about this saturday. This would be a good spot for a get to gether, only they do not allow any alcohol there. This is about the fourth place they have tried to stay at since last year. It seems that the RICE burners get ther also and that's where the problems start. The last spot thery were at was just donw the street from me and the alcohol from the ricers got them thrown out. Like I said before let me know.

Art

Whats up Art, October was a god month for b-days, Mine is the 15th. :metal: Ill probably be riding my Harley saturday night if i make it down there. It still in the air for me, we have a cookout to go too, hopefully we will be leaving that early so my wife can go visit her brother. Then ill go to Glen Burnie. My Address Is Curtis Bay, I actually live In Anne Arundel County about a mile from the cityline on fort smallwood rd.
The cruise in Brooklyn Isnt as big as the Glen burnie one. Maybe 50 or so cars, plus all of them show up at glen burnie the next night. Some cars also hang out at the Brusters Ice cream place on Aqua heart road on friday nights. The rice burners dont stop and park with the others at the glen burnie mall cruise. There is a sign saying something like the certain year of cars that can park in the roped off areas. Even the newr corvettes were parked offto the side . :c2: well thats enough ramblim for me. Ya'll have a good day Greg

i might have to try and make it down that way for the bigger one. where exactly is the one in glen burnie. so long as money works out and i can actually afford the extra fuel i will bring the truck down be nice to meet y'all. jim i have met quite a few times already.

Its where Glen Burnie Mall use to be. There is a Best Buy store, Target, Toys R Us, Chick filet etc.. there now. If ya need further directions let me know.

thanks i know exactly where ur talking about im gonna try and get down there this weekend

Cableguy0. If you are coming down by the Key Bridge you would take the Curtis Bay exit. Make a left off of the ramp to the light, make a right go over the bridge and make a left onto ordence rd. Go to the 5th light and make a left onto the parking lot at the stop sign make another left and go around the back of the mall and follow it around to the front and that is where everyone is at, if you are coming down 695 take the eit for glen burnie/dmv and go to the second working light and make a left onto the lot everyone is on the right. Any one that wants to come can us the above dierctions. Greg I'm right in Ferndale. Know the Curtis Bay area and Anne Arundle area very well. Was born/raised in ferndale and moved back here in 91 after I retired from the Coast Guard. I'm there every saturday night since it is only 5 minutes from the house. Will be looking for anyone.

Art

actually the quickest way for me to go is to take 895 follow the spur till it dead ends into ritchie highway and its right there

Sorry I forgot about that way. Thats what happens when you get old.

Art

Sorry I forgot about that way. I just do not take the tunnel at all and thats what happens when you get old.

Art

lol thats alright. but from where im at thats basically a straight shot. bout 3 gallons down and 3 gallons back lol there goes 20 bucks

How can we catchup to ya Art?

what time does it usually get going down there? on saturday night?

Greg, I will be wearing a black POW/MIA t-shirt and most likely jean shorts if cool long jeans.
Cableguy it starts at 5 but gets going around 6, but empties around 8, also on that sunad they have another show at the DMV, this is a fund raiser that they have every year. If you guys let me know what you are wearing I try and catch you's, also my son will be with me he is tall and lanky. Normally we walk slow up and down each row and stop to talek to a lot of guys that have cars/trucks there that we know.

Art

Greg I will be out of town next week, taking my dinning room set down to my son's place in NC if the wx hold out,if not still be out of town, have to go to Grotto VA to pick up my dog from my daughter. She took him down 2 weeks ago and I'm going crazy with out him. He is only a little over a year old and is a minuture Pom, but he is my buddy. Every place I go he go's with me. Love's people and especially kids. Just out of couristy where do you work? I work out in Bowie for a company that has been a prim contractor for NSA sine 1958. I'm a Security Supervisor and work 11-8. Maybe weekend after next.

Art

I work in a machine shop. Its called Stanley Engineering. Located in the Industrail park behind Micheals 8th ave. Im a machinist, and setup CNC machines. We work With all kinds of metals and plastics. So ill be making some Billet pieces for my truck when i can. :metal: Ill probably be at the cruise the followin weekend also.
What part of NC ya goin too? My parents live in Lumberton, NC, Right off of I-95.
Greg

I know where you work is, it is just down the street from me,I'm right off Whelham Rd, past Cromwell El.school. My son lives in Benson off of 40,about 15 miles off of 95. He is up here for a couple months working at Auto Body Plus to get thing caught up. He was working at a Custom Bike shop but they closed up on him and did not tell him about it. He went into work on a Monday and they were empty. Still own him two weeks pay. He is there main body man there. Kevin that own's the shop told him that any time he wants to come back he is welcome to it, so he came up here and left the familey there.

Art

I been thru benson once. I lived down in NC for 3 yeras after i Got out of the USMC .

Nice area. I like it might retire down there, housing is not expensive. The home my son bought for $100,000. would sell here for over 250t. 4 bedroom,21/2 bath,2car garage,1 1/2 acre land,and was just 2 years old last year when he got it. Nice new neighborhood. So you were one of Uncle Sam's Miss Guided Children. Just kidding, when I was on River Patrol we worked with some of them,but most of the time we had the Army 9th with us along with the Seals. Do you drive you truck to work? If so I might stop by one day and take a look.

Art

Yeah the cost of living is low down there. But the taxes are i think 6%, and some of the couties have weird tax laws, Plus Jobs arent that great. so, check into that stuff and other Junk before ya make a move.
Yes i was one of the miss guided ones. :crazy: :dohh:
Well tommorrow will be the first day Im gonna drive it to work. Ive got everything straight so its on the road . Now its time to get started with the plans. lol I usually get off of work at 3:30.

Greg what color is the truck? I might stop by tues or wed and take a look at it. Normally by 3pm I'm in bed. I work 11-7 shift. No one around to bother you and we have sat tv to watch all night as long as we do our checks and stay awake. What are your plans for the truck? Also how about some pic's? When I was stationed in Miami we used to stop in Lumberton overnight on our way up here. Had a real good resturant right next to the motel and served a really big breakfeast and not too expensive, but that was in the 70's and 80's.

Art.

Whats up people? Any thing happenin with ya'll? Art my truck wont be there wensday. I just got back from a road trip and ive got a doctor appointment, so ill drive my new truck.maybe some other time. anyway it s RED. lol

Greg

Greg:
Got back Monday night. good trip got 31mpg on the wife's Cavalere? Took the long way back home,went from benson to Grottoes Va. to pick up my dog and then up to Harpers Ferry and down 70 to 695. Forgot how old you feel after driving 700+ miles. Got to the house and it took 10 minutes to get out of the car. Will check every now and then for your truck and take my dig camera with me and post some if you are unable to do it.
