Yes, because for sale stuff might get deleted in this thread.

I have a line on fuel and will be selling it at the rally. I don't know how many I can bring in my M1008 but I know could probably get six 55 gallon drums in it. So the price will be $120 for a 55 gallon drum. You will be responsible for unloading at Haspin and if you can't do it Thursday then don't buy any because I don't want to wait for people to show up and not be able to trail ride. I will sell them in order of PM's received and will load as many as I can. It looks like this will be an ongoing thing so I will run ads in the classifieds from here on out.

Pm sent

I'm here. Where is everyone?

Just rained. Supposed to have bad storms tomorrow. The cat and I are hunkered down.

 

[gungearz]

Be there around noon... The girls are cooking cupcakes for everyone right now. Should be leaving around 8am and were a hour behind on the clock...

 

[swbradley1]

It is pretty cold here. It was only 88 when I pulled in.

 

[gungearz]

Shoulda brought that 95 degree weather with ya when you packed...

 

[swbradley1]

I haven't even unloaded the new ATV. Just sitting watching the geese. Someone has the shelter.

My thieves took my hitch and $405 later here I am.

The kentuckiana moto x series will be held there this weekend also. Maybe people came early knowing we were going to be there....

Loaner trailer from joediveguy is all strapped down with gimpy's crap, er, I mean, quality merchandise, truck is serviced with an oil change and checked everything related to coolant system (it's had issues recently), ready for 530 miles tomorrow. All I need to do is get my camping gear together and load up some stuff to try and sell, and I'm outta here tomorrow am.

So they did not rope it off for us? This its the second time they have screwed us over.

I doubt the shelter campers will be there for long once the big rigs we drive show up in force and surround them.

Hey steve... After it rained. Did the lake level come up...? If so, management might ask us to relocate so we don't tear up the campground with the soft soil....

 

[augiedoggy]

Steve, I sure hope the Cat drove your 813 there!

Put Sparkys genset next to shelter and leave 'er runnin' that'll clear out the shelter!

My planned arrival is Thursday afternoon, depending on work load.

Walk over naked and say hello, they will head for the hills!

Anyone coming from the Seattle area, passing through the Vegas area on their way to Haspin... AND (1) hasn't left yet; (2) wants some gas money; and (3) has room for two front fenders for a 1937 Hudson-Terraplane [about 7 ft long x 4 ft wide x 3 ft high for the pair if you place them opposite each other... they're tear drop shaped].

A fellow member of another car club that I am in (Hudson-Essex-Terraplane Club) is having shipping issues. Let me know if anyone can be of assistance, and I'll PM you his info... I'm just the middleman here trying to help out fellow gear heads!

EDIT: If no one heading to the Haspin Rally chimes up, I'll post in the transportation thread. Figured I'd offer here first. It is sounding like ~$500+ worth of gas money to come close to his current quotes. SO for those heading that way anyway, it should buy more in Haspin!

The M1008 probably isnt going to make it. I dont think i put the wheel bearings and spindle nuts in right. Hub gets pretty hot and i smell burning grease and see a hint of smoke.

 

[swbradley1]

Someone came in about two hours ago. I'd guess Matt but you never know.

In five years they have never roped the shelter.

The other pond is higher than I've ever seen it but the one by campgrounds is normal. The place is rutted up and has puddles. If they did anything it was for the people race they had.

 

[gungearz]

Steve, hang in there buddy... We got 150 cupcakes loaded up and about to head out.
