Hey everyone,

I'm back... Very Happy

Did anyone miss me? And my picture on a dartboard does not count. Laughing

All my emails were yahoo and I have a hard enough time keeping up with the ones I already have.
I so hated to have to setup another (new) email just to be on this forum. But I finally did it. Rolling Eyes Very Happy
I need to make sure to change the settings to not receive any emails from this point forward. I know I will not check it that often.

Glad to be backkkkk.

Marie and I are blessed to have had a 2nd chance to buy our farm.
Still hoping and more importantly praying to be able to build a garage.

My girlfriend told me..."How can I miss you, if you won't leave"?

Tony,
Someone was asking about you here a while back. Did you ever retrieve the GMC and 2 boats from out west?

Sadly - not yey. My mother in-law fall and broke her back in May. My wife, two of her three sisters, and myself have been busy since. The house goes to closing this Friday. They did most of the work. But I did help some. They cleaned up her house, staged it and put it on the market for sale. I helped clean and pack the entire utility room and do some outdoor stuff. She moved into a nursing home last Tuesday.

The owners of the GMC are holding it for me and my good friend Rod has found a nice low profile flat deck trailer which should be able to haul both boats on it.. The trailer belongs to a friend of his and it has 13" tire with a 22' long deck.

I have a 75 PB and two corvairs, (a 66 Monza coupe with a counter-rotating 215 cu.in. alloy V8 in the back, and a 64 spyder convertible), so welcome back! Incidentally, I am familiar with Ultravans, and the Toro motor sounds like much better "motivator" than the vair engine in most of them. (Don't want to hurt any feelings, but that was asking a lot from a 2.7 litre aircooled engine!)

Oh at least 19 Tony. I'm on email!

Of course we missed you! I just don't have anything to contribute.
