Who said anything about MRAPs?

Update:

Engine should be boxed up and on its way to me shortly with Tec tagging along with it! Intake pipes and blow-off valve arrived, now all I have to do is buy a clutch!

It's getting close...

If you are up and running before me I will have to come out there and deal with you personally.

Youre back in town right?

26 months on MRAPs.. you got me... I believe I am in the top 10 as far as seniority, most have left due to burn out... I just make sure I take time off when I need to..

You gonna end up jockeying Reapers? Word I am hearing is they are going to be handled from stateside, not the sandbox...


Check out the ordinance on this thing... payload north of 1.5T of mixed-use ordinance...

I'm still planning on a "business" trip down to see you some time in November to at least see your new powerplant... and maybe shoot the ****..

Hey guys,

Looks like my land date at DFW airport is Oct. 28th!

Getting excited as usual, but just wanted to pass to you guys interested in coming to help my schedule.

My only full weekend that I can dedicate to the car is the first weekend that I'm home (Oct31/Nov1). After that I'll have all the weekdays to work on it as well as MAYBE the last weekend (Don't you love it when the wife makes your schedule?)

Anyone wanting to head on over is always more than welcome, just shoot me a PM when you'd want to and I'll tell you if it's good for me. I hope that I'm not swamped with wife activities!!!

If I'm off crutches or at least mobile, I'll definitely come give you a hand.







Or just drink beer and take vicodin, whichever works.
