NE Road Trip - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

vtblazer · 03-16-2005, 07:33 AM

Doing another parts run over the last few days of March. 28th-30th.

Meeting up with another member coming from Maine, we'll be heading for VA.

The reason for this thread is this:
1) Asking if anybody along the way, would be willing to offer "emergency" numbers for us. Just incase.

The trip route begins in northern Maine, to VT.
Then down I-87, to I-88, to I-81 into VA.

Thanks.

**CPNE** · 03-16-2005, 08:32 AM

assuming the Me to VT rte is 302, you have mine.

JimKshortstep4x4 · 03-16-2005, 12:22 PM

I am probably out of the way so I won't offer an emergency number. Good luck on your trip, sounds like fun!

Bump back up, hoping for a couple more toward VA way.

Thanks Jeff, yep got yours.

Trifelynn · 03-17-2005, 10:28 AM

You definitely can have mine...and anything you guys might need.
I am in Maryland, about an hour and a half east of Hagerstown...
Will send to you kurt...

vtblazer · 03-18-2005, 09:04 PM

Back around for the weekend.

70 shorty · 03-18-2005, 10:06 PM

Where you headed in VA? I-81 is about 2 hours away at from me, so I may not be much help, but if your headed to central VA, let me know, I'll pm you mine. BTW, maybe you're heading there but you should stop in Front Royal and see Bill Athey, that's right on I-81

**JIMs70GMC** · 03-18-2005, 10:12 PM

Have room for Mike's bed as I'll have it up there by the end of next week, probably on Saturday. Mike, it's off!

dwaite72lnghrn · 03-18-2005, 10:17 PM

How far in VA you going? I will be heading south and west towards the end of the month.

our destination.

Thanks for all the numbers so far!

70 shorty · 03-18-2005, 11:29 PM

That's what I figured given your route.

Pete

pickupman · 03-19-2005, 09:58 AM

hope you guys have a safe trip down. Looking forward to meeting you all.
Bill

DTerry · 03-19-2005, 10:42 AM

Here's the deal... I live in Binghamton NY (I88 and I81 intersection) and will be in Albany NY (I87 and I88 intersection) that week, but if you need help, call me. I probably won't be too much help in Albany, but I'll drive home (two hours) to help you if you need it.

Also, you could use my tools/shop if you need to. You can do pretty much anything in there. My boys will be around home if you just need something quick. I also have a car trailer at home if you really get into trouble...

I'll send you a PM with a phone number.
