Sounds Good to me !!!

-
I would be up for that..

LockDoc

count me in. anyone offering to host it? or do we pick a weekend and all show up at the hardee's or porkies cruise-in in DM, or the newtow taco johns cruise in?

Taco Johns sounds good to me I'll be Flintstoning it for a while til I get my motor done at Bob's place.

Taco Johns sounds good to me I can afford the gas to get there :lol: Bob

I might be able to make yours run long enough to get you there;):waah:

OH, NO!!! You're not really letting "Bob" work on it are you???? You better pick up a reverse flow water pump 'cause it will probably run backwards when he's done with it....:haha:

p.s. The devil made me say that...:)

I will tighten the muffler belts real tight and add some high performance left hand blinker fluid so she don't run backwards this time !!!!!:lol::lol::lol:

what Taco Johns?

out in newton. they have a firday night show there every week similar to what we have at hardees on SW 9th and army post.

so fary it looks like it's just me and you from DM, so we should probably head toward the others. How does August 15th grab everyone?

looks like the 15th is out for me... family reunion 22nd anyone?
and I'm classic truck-less at the moment...
stubborn rear drum won't come off at the shop...

If you guys get a date together I will be able to come. I am in the process of the 4x4 conversion on my longhorn and I have the drivetrain sitting here other than the rear drive shaft. I would like to drive this thing soon. It isn't as nice as your guys' trucks though. I will have to park at the end. LOL

IMO, any 4x4 longhorn is gonna be a sweet ride to check out. got any spare toyota's to run over? :)

i can't do the 22nd. how does the 29th in newton sound?

I will have to check on the 29th i think I might be gone I will let you know soon . Bob

The farhter back it is the more I might have done to the poor truck. LOL

My 4x4 will need to be down at the end too :)

At this point I don't have anything on the calendar for August. So it looks like I'm good to go anytime....

I'm back in action.... new brakes all around, and a little bit more tailpipe added to quiet it down a little bit more...

Count me in...sounds like a good time. Most August should work. What time do they start, for the many possibilities?

It's from 6 to 8 pm every Friday nite . Bob

Hey if you guys are interested I am putting together a diesel truck show in Pleasant Hill Iowa on September 20 2008 at Area Diesel Service. I am inviting the gas pick ups as well because I would lke as many trucks to come as we can get. There will be trophies for 1st and 2nd place in each class. The more trucks that pre-register the more trophies I can get. It only costs $15 to register and if you are interested email me at dieselwrencher@netscape.net . Thanks Ryan.

sounds like fun. i'll send you an email tonight. will paypal work for ya? or do you want cash the day of?

Paypal would be fine. The more trucks I get registered now the better I can make this deal. Thanks Levi.

any of you guys want one of these cup holders?

I put it all together, but it's not the best solution for a 4wd :) I had the "wedge" from a previous car....

Hey guys, i added a new thread for that Show on Sept. 20 that has more details on what all is going on at the show.

Will Sept. 5 work for everyone ??? The end of Aug is not good for me anniversary and wifes b-day the last two weekends . Let me know. Thanks ,Bob

sounds good, unless that's labor day weekend.

Labor day is Monday Sep 1st. Levi I saw your truck at Hardee's but didn't see you. I called you when I arrived but no answer. I walked around and when I came back your ride was gone. I must have gotten there when you were saying your good byes. LOL

heh, yeah, we usually take off right after the drawing and go get some food. i was lookin around for ya, but must have missed ya.

as for the 5th, no one has objected yet, so lets set that as the date. If you can make it to newton for the taco johns thing, great. if not, maybe next time.

Leon- if you talk to Art before I do, let him know. Maybe he'll put some miles on the blue truck and bring it out :)

5th should work for me as well...

well i dont think i will be making 2 trips down there in 2 weeks time. I am planning on the event on Sept. 20 and i PLAN to have both my C10 and diesel there.

well, i guess i mis-spoke. the 5-7 is the midwest all trucks nats. already planned on going to that, and i think a few others were as well.

and wheres that at?

kansas city. there's another thread here in the midwest forum with details on it.

i personally, cannot wait until this show. :)

O.K. how about Sept. 12th ?????? will that work???? Bob

:sumo: I'll be off-roading that weekend :)

maybe October? :lol: :ito:

Well the Taco Johns cruise nite is over at the end of the month . I went tonight and they told me 2 more weeks . However that doesn't mean we can't still meet there if anyone is interested in a Sept. mini-meet . Let me know . Bob ;)

still interested. even Bob's idea of a mini-meet in Sept.

if the weather's good this friday, i think i'm gonna head out to newton and check it out. haven't made it out there all year and it looks like this upcoming friday is gonna be my last chance.

I can't be there this Friday because it's my anniversary and i don't think the love of my life would understand if i took her to Taco Johns for her anniversary supper;) She puts up with alot from me and my hobby so I better take her out on Friday !! All the guys who attend are real nice guys and you will be welcomed !! Bob
