Trip to Jeep Heaven & Met a couple IFSJA members
I am recouperating from a 1300 mile trip I made to pick up a car, that I wound up refusing  However on the upside I had some parts to deliver to various people, and trailer load of goodies for Zack.
Pictures I have seen of Z&M Jeeps does little justice to his operation. If I had more time I think I would have made that a Day trip. I am pretty sure there were some treasures I did not see, but I was very impressed with what I did see. Congrats on doing a good job there Zack! Very nice to meet you 
Left Toledo to meet up with Retro in Dayton where I was supposed to pickup a 41 Packard Clipper.................However the terms good condition, and very good job, seems to differ between Mi and OH.   With that the car is still there for the next victim.
Kim as usual nice to meet up with you again. Hoot it was a pleasure to meet you...................Glad Kim woke you up the 2nd TIME!!! Next time pick the right place to eat!!!! LMAO!! 
The dissapointment in the purpose of the trip was far outweighed by meeting up with a few FSJers along the way. Even if one of them was Kim! 
Thanks Zack, Kim and Hoot for your time BS'ing with me!

Pete,
It was nice meeting you as well. Since you passed on the Packard, why didn't you come back and get that Jeepster??? You know you want it. And you had an empty trailer and everything. Thanks for the kind words, my place has come a long way, but still has a long way to go. You traveling with an interesting group

Fun times !!!!
Next time you set me in the lead to look for a place to eat specify anywhere is fine as long as it is a Steak-N-Shake..
BTW Thanks for dinner and the sheet metal goodies.
Retro has the only pics I know of... He is probably still wandering around Ohio trying to find his way back.

Trust me I thought long and hard about comming back and picking that up! It weighed heavy on my mind all day today as well...................Even pulled up your number on the phone. 
I shot myself in the foot when I said my Kid would probally get off at the wrong exit and not have enough $$$$ to pay the toll...................He went the WRONG WAY!!! That was Fun! Yea my group gets some looks Deaf Best Friend, Blind Brother, and a DUMB SON!..........SIGH!

Them Kalifornians have a little trouble with what we mean when we say "pulling tractor" in KY.
It has nothing to do with a pool

Packard Clippers are *sweet*. There's some near here, but they're currently sitting in a rather weird overly religious dudes junkyard and unavailable..well he wanted 3k for one the hulks a few years ago, I'd put that as unavailable..
