I'm thinking I'll leave on Thursday evening and drive up to the Bristol TN/VA area, camp, and then head out on Friday. There are a few stops I'd like to make along the way, probably find another spot to camp in southern Indiana or something, and roll in Saturday morning.

Sitting here bored at work on a Tuesday so I guess I could throw a quick update at the thread. The car did excellent for MountainMeet! The only issue was a slowly dripping heater control valve which seems to stop once the car warms up. I'll snag a new valve for it eventually. Started right up...

Honestly if you want to commit to the weekend of October 14th this year, I'm in. Mountainmeet will continue to be the 2nd/3rd/4th weekend of September, and the mid-October date was vacated by Peterpalooza. I think that's good timing.

Next year I'm going to put some effort into a propulsion vehicle. That was sick.

I think next year we'll take a trip out to his shop, probably on Friday. It's a bit of a hike from the lodge, but he also owns a restaurant out there, we could leave midmorning, get to his place, have lunch, tour the shop, and be back at the lodge by mid afternoon. Worth the trip. We did that...

That's Dave, he runs a Volvo restoration shop over in Hayesville, he just stopped by for the thing at Steve's. Good to meet you dude! Hate you missed out on the tour at Steve's.

Post yours up below, this is a placeholder for me til I get home and have the time to sort through pics myself.

Much better.

Yes please on the rub.

Got the bushings and steering links done yesterday, that’sa wrap on mountainmeet prep for this car.

Yeah I fell over when I got home. Travel schedule has been brutal lately.

Not a clue. I guess I can measure tonight. I'm hoping to get the front suspension done and steering stuff redone tonight if I don't fall over asleep when I get home.

Yeah, it's actually looking like it might clear up. Doesn't look torrential, just dreary. (I have now ensured that it will be torrential)

$1, Bob! (rip)

I love how it's bulletproof until it hears you're planning to drive it halfway across the country in a few days. Typical old car crap.

Cool, I have two cookers that just showed up today

Gordon has a shellfish allergy so I’m sure the effort will be appreciated. Mushrooms were a hit last year.

Tie rods and link rod ends showed up today and I get to go home a day early from the work trip this week, so hopefully I’ll get to that in the next day or two. Til then. I made a little video on my efforts to improve the cooling system a bit. The gauge reads high, but at the top of a long hill...

@James M when are you leaving?
