Re: Operation "Mulligan" (pic heavy)

Thanks guys :handgestures-thumbupright: Since the RC trip I've been back to the regular grind of working 7 days a week at the store so all the work of tearing/cutting the doner apart and tackling the Heep has been a few hours here and there in the evenings as weather and life permits.

Things that I'll pick up if cheap: Front driver seat (the vinyl is all ripped up and a big hole in the foam has formed) Full size doors Torque box (not sure if it's feasible to drill out all the spot welds, but there are parts of my torque box that are very thin) Do you ride solo or usually have a ...

Re: Trailering MPG

Was getting about 7.5mpg down to Rausch and back pulling the barn door with an '04 Silverado 6.0l. 20gal tank made for frequent fuel stops.

Re: Freekin Jeep

That's a better plan then when I converted my '70 Nova to a stick.....
.....I wormscrew clamped a chunk of heavy strap stock to the bearing fork and used a parking brake cable with some Disney brackets from the pedal to the fork :-o :-o :-o
