New country, new Goat

[PointnShoot4WD]

Sooooo, I may have done something many would consider insane.

No, not relocate to the US, although I have; I bought another M561.

Pics to follow when I’m on a desktop.

But more importantly, who lives on the route between LA and Augusta?

Old girl is getting a solid service and trip prep, but a little forward planning makes the cock ups less painful.

BTW, running Flagstaff, Pueblo, Wichita, Memphis as intermediate stops.

Hope I don’t have a Bugs moment with my directions at Albuquerque...

Congrats on the new wheels. I'm in the south east corner of Kansas, if you need anything on the way through.

And pics as promised..

You can keep your spare parts at my place, my Goat will keep the rust off of them for you. Near Colorado Springs here, north of Pueblo.

Also last week I think there was another one for sale in western Colorado...you could tow it with you....just being helpful here.

 

[PointnShoot4WD]

SgtMaj, is that a request for me to tow some spare parts in for you?
A most generous offer, and I’m sure you’d keep the soft goods flexible through hanging on appropriate framework too.

I just thought that maybe since you just bought another one you might be in a buying mood and get another one. As far as taking care of extra gear and parts I'm from the government, I'm here to help!

Congrats mate, looks solid. I'm jealous of the cargo cover.

Road trip is at risk, waiting for insurance to get temporary tags before I fly out in the morning...

Well I see that you are in a traveling mood, why not a caravan.

Convoy!

I've been putting a few road miles on my goat, even with the 12 ply DUWK tyres its very comfortable and pleasant on the road, it really likes to be at about 45mph. Get yourself some Bluetooth earmuffs.

Getting a Rugged Radio race intercom kit fitted, extension back to the carrier and tied in to dual band two way.

Right flash!

Crikey.

We had a nice Goat, but wore it out, was a fine goat.


But We never did have a real Goat

Big thanks to Elijah95 for the float across from LA, arrived safe and sound in Senoia from whence it was picked up on an equipment trailer and hauled to Augusta.

Had half a chance to get sorted and over to Durhamtown, but it was not to be.

Fantastic looking goat, I sold ours, But it went 1000s of miles wi'out a 'blimp'.
Yours will simply go on, And on,...And on....and ...on.
'Tough as old boots'..Enjoy the trip,
we are following your every post.

'Wish I had another".....(I just......Might...(Sighhhs)).

 

[glcaines]

I'm glad you got it home!

This is what brakes look like when dot 4 is mixed in to dot 5... deja vu, new slave cylinders, flush and hope the pads clean up...

It was the adventure of a lifetime! Thank you for the opportunity, and is that what was inside the hubs? [Horror]
