Congrats! I've seen this Chero a few times and would've loved to have it in my garage.

If you stop for lunch/beer/wings around here, PM me, I live 10 minutes from Kens place.

Yep...I'll post some pics when I get back.

We're gonna stay in Cleveland for the night and hit the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in the morning before coming back on Sunday.

One of my other obsessions aside from the Jeeps is playing Rock n Roll...so it'll be a dual pleasure trip

Just got home

Ok...I'm gonna part it out. Who wants what?


Just kidding of course . Just got back. 770 miles round trip...including a trip into downtown for the night from Ken's house. Ken...it was a pleasure meeting you! Thanks for taking care of the Jeep for all these years!

The Rock-n-Roll hall of fame was cool too. Toured that this morning....it's been a long day.

I got home and just had to go out and start it up and sit in it for a few minutes....still on the trailer Pretty sure the family thinks I'm crazy. Sitting out there in the dark and the rain...in awe of the glove box and ash tray lights that still work.

I gotta tell you the original push button radio is kinda cool. I'm not sure I'll be able to bring myself to change it. In fact it still sounds great with the original speakers and all. If I do put anything else in it i'll have to leave that one in the dash and functional...put some kind of a/b switch in it or something
