    Wow...I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said. I had some minor surgery on Monday and haven't been on-line for a couple days and log on to find this! I've been tearing up reading through the account of the roll, the search for Luna and then finally the reunion with her.

    I'm so happy to know that everyone is OK and all in one place, and it's absolutely NO surprise to read how everyone has stepped up to help out and support our own in a time of need. We ARE family in every sense of the word.

      I have a 76 401 Waggy that is darn near a clone to Phoebe. If there is a way to get the Wag to you, I'll gladly donate the clean body and frame with clear title.

      I'm in Sacramento and the Gag O Neer is on a flatbed in the side yard without axles. She's slated to go to the crusher if I can't find a home for her.
      So, if someone can come up with transport it's yours free of charge Flint n Krista!

      Good morning! We were at the bbq over at Kevin's place last night. It was a nice feed and a great social time with good folks.

      Krista got on here last night after we got back and called me in to see. We are both deeply humbled and grateful for the friends we have here on the forum. We are also choked up over the offers...

      Tatsadasayago - This is very tempting. Do you have pictures of the Gag O Neer? Many, many thanks!!!

      Many thanks for the efforts and money offers as well! Just about every time we think we have a plan starting to come together, something else pops up to consider.

      it has been a very emotional week - we have so much to be thankful for - just wow - thank you all!

        I have a P/U that needs to go to Ca. for Tigger, we should combine the hauls.
        My boss has a new Nissan all fixed up, let me talk to him and see what I can do.
        Maybe I can use it to take this one to Ca, and then grab that one and meet you @ the 4 corners or somewhere close.

        • I too have to admit how humble and grateful I am to see the out pouring of support and offers of help. You are the best people in the world and we've always considered you all extended family.

          Jaber - Phoebe is staying in Arizona for now. Casey (firecaptain13) has offered to fix her up for us. He will pick her up here and take her baack to his shop in Tucson. He offered us the body of a 67 Wag that is missing doors and some other parts, but we are interested in pursuing the GagoNeer should her body be in good condition. It'd be much easier to swap a whole body that piece one together.

          We are still sorting things out.. seems like every time we think we have a plan the cosmos sends us another option.

          Again, I am so humbled and so proud to be a part of this community.

            Just keep me informed and we'll get y'all through this.

            So, did the frame check out? Is it just the body or did the frame bend like originally thought?

            • The frame is not obviously bent. Won't know for sure until the body comes off.

                    I understand... I felt a great disturbance in the force, as if the voice of a 401 cried out in terror and was suddenly silenced.
