Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

I'll be headed back by the end of August, to retire in Feb 2010. MSGROSS offered me a job up in that area, but I haven't been able to talk the wife into it yet......:lol:.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

I think Jon is in the process of moving to VA...

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

New job?

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

I think tri-pro was looking to move facilities from NJ to VA.. not sure when it was happening though.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

Now that I'm almost done with my project :lol:

Hopefully I'll be doing a blazer project within a couple of years...hope he is in VA and close to me :chevy:

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

the website still says NJ...

Lynchburg, VA is where I think that they were looking at.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

Any progress

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

Sorry- been busier than a one-armed paper hanger.

Yes I've moved to VA. Just unloaded the truck here yesterday and got it into a rental "Car Club" garage where we've got lifts, and facilities to start work again. Anyone in the Lynchburg area that can wrench and drink beer is MORE than welcome to come tinker.

Jon

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

i wish these hobbycarclub type toolplaces where here too , theres only one commercial DIY garage near me and the price to rent a lift for a day is 80 euro .... thats half of my storagepace for a month for 3 pickups i have at the moment unfortunately i can't work on my trucks there

due to bad rep from people growing weed illegally or use the place as a chop chop and the inviromental issues (oil on the floor running off through the sewage and toxic fumes) its verry hard to find a place big enough place for rent when youre not a busness where you can actually work on youre truck two car garages are practicly non existend here
a lot of people renting those buildings out are verry aprehencive when you tell them where you want to use the space for and most other (bigger) places are twice the price what i pay for my home

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

What are the specs on the rims and tires? 6 bolt?

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

yes they're 6 bolt. The rears are 20"x10" and the fronts are 18"x9"....don't ask the backspace, etc. I can't remember

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

Good to see that you'll be making some more progress soon.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

400 miles closer to you Rob so when you want to come up we'll be here

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

hobby car club, rental space, hmmmm that would be handy, hope the move went good.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
 

:lol:, I'll probably be making a trip up that way the summer of '11. I still have a bunch of friends in the tidewater area. I plan on doing the Power Tour this summer, do ya wanna sponser it? :D

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
