I really like the concrete stain work in the inside photo.


...... is there something official about the PNWSS chapter that I need to know about so that I can participate or is it not so formal? I was reading about the convoy from the Tacoma area to the camp out this summer and I feel all excited like a little boy about it and my sons will love it too.
I think the only requirements are to have the green addiction in some manner, not to be an a$$ hole in any manner, to help out if you can and to have fun!:driver:

Well, I have all the symptoms of the sickness and should have a confirmed diagnosis this afternoon about 1500 when I am scheduled to pick up my first MV, an 86 M1031, in Seattle.

As far as the other part goes.... there are no indications of Richard Cranium's disease, although my father has some early signs. As for the other thing you mentioned, one time in the past a guy did call me that but I had just let the magic smoke out of his stereo so Im not sure that counts.

The biggest challenge I can see is that I seem to be in the MV wilderness up here in Mount Vernon so I dont imagine I will be a frequent attendee at the local coffee show where you guys meet up or whatever. I have made contact with one SS member in my area though and he seems to be a real nice guy and I will be working on getting to know him better.

Regards!

My MV is a 1986 M1031 as well. Still trying to get all the vehicle mechanicals sorted before trying the generator, but will get there. If you don't know when the last PM was done on the truck you need to do everything. Start small and work up. Get the TM's you can down load them at www.jatonkam35s.com for free. Some goob was in charge of doing the PM's on my truck. Three different color greases were on the front wheel bearings and they were just packed full. The bearings couldn't even turn. Have new bearings now. good luck!!!!!!!!!! I am here if you need me.:driver:P.S. Don't worry you qualify!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are breathing right? Because that is the other requirement.
