Just watch your fingers around those two dead sexy guys from Ohio they might bite

Longhorn Man · 08-02-2009, 09:26 PM

don't hate!

monte0185 · 08-06-2009, 03:48 PM

Well guys as much as i hate to miss the meet and greet Plans changed. Im going to AZ instead. I found a SWB 1 ton GMC there that all the cab work is done and painted and all that needs to be finished is the bed. Granted not original since they never came in a 1 ton 4x4 but itll do what i need it to do for hunting and such. Ill post pics as soon as i get home.

Anyone want to ride along?

70rs/ss · 08-06-2009, 04:03 PM

Whoa, where at in AZ?? I may have some parts for ya?! LMK I am about an hour due North of Winslow, AZ off of I-40!

monte0185 · 08-06-2009, 04:10 PM

Ill be going straight across on I-40. If you know a good burger joint I can always eat!! Or Steak for that matter. The place is Kingman AZ. My grandpa lives in CHino Valley so I may stop for a few hours and visit and catch up on couple hours of shuteye. Depends on how bad the bossman yells at me for taking off as to how long i get to sleep.

70rs/ss · 08-06-2009, 04:29 PM

You'll be running very near me! Do you want that cab? I may give it to ya, just to get rid of it? LMK. Maybe you can meet up with my trans in Kingman and bring it back to me? If you have the room LMK?

Mike

Longhorn Man · 08-06-2009, 05:39 PM

bummer... have a good trip, take lotsa pics too

As far as the cab it depends on what kind of room i have. Now for the trans, while not my preference i guess i could if he/she looks good enough!! J/J

I dont mind perhaps we could meet along i40 somewhere and you could ride along. I got a suburban so i dont think people room will be an issue.

There is an In-N-Out Burger off the I-40 in Kingman. Best fast food hamburger you will ever eat.

Longhorn Man · 08-06-2009, 10:17 PM

mmmmmmm in-n-out is THE BEST!

monte0185 · 08-06-2009, 10:26 PM

Cool!! might have to stop then. Im trying to get a buddy or two of mine to ride along but so far this is looking to be a solo trip. Oh well done it before.

70rs/ss · 08-07-2009, 12:22 PM

I'll definately come down to meet up w/ya and if it happens to fall on a weekend day I may make the ride to kingman and back, and YES IN-OUT-BURGER is the best!!
