Have a safe trip down! Looking forward to seeing your TII one day [/QUOT

Thank you!! But I'm the guy w the black five letter 85
Oh! That too I just thought you were strongly looking for a TII as well! Either way, both ave officially peaked my interest

I'd just settle for the black SE Mr. Tools, it don't get no better than that.



And the SE is a whole lot less expensive than those fat-assed FC's and pretty but breaks-when-you-look-at-them FD's.

Save the money for retirement, you'll need plenty of time to tool around the GA roads in the SE once you get down here.

Might even want to come up to an OGTA meeting sometime.

Which reminds me, isn't tomorrow night the 4-5-16 meeting date???

Anybody going?

Thank you Ray! Not bad for 31 years young..I just watched 2015 DGRR video. Wow..! Wish I could make it this year but I'll be there in spirit. Great video Kevin.. Professional! Gave me goose bumps. I'll be in the line up 2017.. Count on it. Have to break my "don't drive in rain" rule though. Which is fine for such an event. Guess I'll finally have to address that tiny leak in my original stick windshield!!

When i get settled in Savannah soon I'll need to know what day each month you guys/gals get together. I'm hoping it's a weekend meeting since my new work schedule starts pretty early in the morning. Always have weekends to myself though.!

Figures, bunch of old guys that sleep in till 11am every morning. Not like us old guys that have a real job..! GA is a big state and driving out and back 200 miles or more might be problematic. I'll just have to take it one meeting place at a time. Hopefully during the weekdays you guys come closer to Savannah. Fingers crossed ..

Paul in addition to the monthly OGTA meetings there are also lots of weekend events, trips to the mountains, DGRR, 3BRR, Crit's Lake House Event, the Mitty, etc.

And for the record, I'm older than you and I'm at work (got here at 10:30).

Anybody go to the meeting last night? Where's the pics?

Ray I thought you said the best ones in the club are "collecting social security"? You still working? 10:30? Hmmm, you a barber? Retail hours?

Decent meet last night, we met two new faces in a nice FC that has been transformed over the last 13 years, and getting to see Billy's new ride was also a treat!

Agreed Tim. This mythology about the Billy REPU needs some basis in reality.

Last I heard Billy had given up on the REPU and was driving a Metropolitan.

I checked on facebook, here's his current unit:

Billy wasn't in the REPU, but he is in a rotary again.

Ray, With all of the Nash pictures I'm wondering if you have been secretly doing a 12a swap into one and are planning on surprising everyone at DGRR.

That would be cool, I got the motor but don't have the Nash. Let me know if you see any for sale.

So how about you guys stop being coy and tell us what Billy got?
