Yeah I have been looking nationwide. Found a few nice ones too, but can't actually buy one just yet since I'm unemployed at the moment.

That sounds like a good plan, they put on a nice cruise. I try to make it to most of them throughout the summer.

**ScottH** · 02-24-2014, 10:18 PM

Another member in Toms River, a meet would be a great idea.

Scott

**zicc1835** · 02-24-2014, 10:33 PM

Howell would be a good spot IMO not to far for the Morris Bergen Essex area and the south of ocean county guys I hope I have my 72 presentable by Memorial Day if there is interest let's pick a few tentative dates lock one down and meet up there sounds like fun

Lattimer · 02-24-2014, 10:35 PM

Somewhere central would probably get the most attendance.

**MidLifer** · 02-24-2014, 10:58 PM

How about at the Englishtown Swap Meet?

Hey, South Jersey guys, anyone know of a media blasting shop in Burlington/Camden/Mercer counties? My internet searches are all turning up stuff in Pennsy. Time to get started on the 50.

Moline_Puller · 02-25-2014, 12:01 PM

Hey Guys!

I'm in Sussex County...work in Bloomingdale. It would be cool to get together this Summer some time! Here's my '72...it's getting a new crate engine, as soon as it warms up a little!

I appreciate the referral Flthead but Brick is a bit far from me. The firms I found in PA are actually closer to me.

Anyone know of any media blasters between say Florence and Glassboro along the 295 corridor?

bigrigpardo · 03-05-2014, 12:17 AM

I am in new milford by Hackensack. not west milford as everyone mistakes it with. I have a 71 c20 my girl has a 71 k20. and i own that cheap 71 longhorn you posted the craigslist ad for. going to be tearing into it soon. I wanted it to go to someone who would restore it but it needed a bed so I found a bed for it and now am going to get it on the road. I promised the old man I got it from I would find it a proper home if I didn't keep it. I cant wait to drive it to his house when I get it done in the next few months I think he may cry. it sat in his driveway for 10 years before I got it and to see it at least running and driving will make his day.

pwdcougar · 03-05-2014, 09:06 AM

bigrigpardo, I'm glad you are going to fix up that longhorn. It has tons of potential.

bigrigpardo · 03-05-2014, 10:49 AM

I just like the fact that its a true one ton and not just another 3/4ton. if someone had said they would restore it I would have let it go but everyones first words from the ad were I need a cheap parts truck and this was too odd and cool to cut up for someones plan jane c10 project. if you guys set up a meet me and my girl would be there with our trucks. may even get my friend to come with his long step

**MidLifer** · 03-05-2014, 04:40 PM

Hey Big Rig Pardo I may be up in Demarest soon with my truck, waiting for my parents' house to sell then I will be up some weekend soon to help empty it out. I'll give you a shout if/when. Maybe we can do a little Bergen Co mini-meet.

bigrigpardo · 03-05-2014, 06:19 PM

cool I got three trucks I can bring.

**MidLifer** · 03-16-2014, 08:59 PM

Boyz - (and any gurlz too) - Englishtown swap meet is 4/11-13. I plan to be there on Sat 4/12. Should we set a meetup for the NJ board members?

Bigrig Pardo I'm still planning on my trip to Demarest. Maybe this Sat. Or I may go down to the Salem Swap Meet - anyone going there?
