Ralph said he is not coming. He got laid off in March. We could be surprised with his arrival, but that may just be wishful thinking on my part.

Ralph is one to take on the trails if you want background history of sorts of where you are. I personally like his "Griswald" style of cruising .
Been a tuff year or so for alot of us. Good vibes for some new employment options going towards you.
I've enjoyed his informal tours and once got a one on one tour in the GMC Yukon with him. Cruising the trails is a soft ride suspension and A/C was the way to go. Why even the ditch crossing was handled with little to no mud getting on the precious Pukon. What a shame it was not wanted in the group photo .. Stupid rental
Looks like more of an incentive to try and make AZ this fall for some riding. Maybe the Honcho will be ready by then.Tom Gibson
1980 J20 Utility bed truck. Factory cab and chassis truck. Many new mods for it but it will look all stock.
1985 J10 nothing special just a nice clean stock truck.
1977 Honcho "Blue" 401/400/quad. Under going major upgrades.."This is Not Your Fathers Honcho", it may not even be a Honcho anymore when done.
2017 Challenger. Very jealous of the Jeeps.

Ralph, you will be missed!

drivers side pipe broke the manifold at that connection, going to see if I can get manifold off without breaking bolts into head
and see about getting another from Phils' Auto in Hotchkis. None of the parts yards around here have these old jeeps around anymore.
rear brakes- no fluid getting there
possible master cyl? got pressure from diaphram and front getting fluid. need a a/c'd garage.

Soaking the bolts right now, hopefully none will break off in head, that would be a drag."There's an inner idiot in us just waiting to climb out and romp about in unabashed stupidity, but most people retain just enough wit to keep the idiot bottled up."
