SandTrap
Have a great weekend The count down to get your Buggy has begun 5 days and counting
SandTrap
Wake Up Ian Morning
Screamin Ian
Hey Wes, better restart that count, we are hopefully at 9 days, looking for a week from Wed.

New due date is the 23rd.
desertbound
you are a far better man than I, Ian. I wish I had as much patience as you have shown through this whole ordeal.
SandTrap
OK as long as we get to see it Easter
SandTrap
Morning Ian
Screamin Ian
morning guys. see ya soon.
SandTrap
Have a great day
Screamin Ian
you too.
SandTrap
Can't wait to see your buggy I remember when it was just a frame on the jig
Screamin Ian
you mean this?
WJ
Yep thats what he remembers..

Morning Ian...Have a great day..

Hope to see you Easter
Screamin Ian
I am planning on it, just need to set a time and day, I think I will be out there Wed mid day, depending on when the car is going to show up.
WJ
Well make sure you bring that beauty for us to see...OH and the new car too laughing.gif laughing.gif
Screamin Ian
Roger that, I just read that the egg hunt is Sat from 8 to 10, so I will cruise up around that time so I know you will be around, sound good?
SandTrap
Sounds good to me Now i just hope the MH will not still be in the shop so we can go for sure
Screamin Ian
I still have J's number in my phone, I will probably call you guys Friday evening to make sure you are there.
SandTrap
Cool she is taking it in tommorrow and telling them they only have a few days to get everything done so we should be there
Screamin Ian
Schweet, I am getting super anxious, I am actually pulling the trailer out today to start prepping it for next week, it is supposed to rain over the weekend so I want to do it before it rains, and I have to make sure I have enough room for the car, in other words, UNPACK THE QUADS!!!!, Finally....
WJ
We will be there I am going to give them Hell if it's not...But I know they will have it done. Everything is there that they need to do..
Call me Ian on friday, But I should know by thursday if they will have it done or not..

Have a great day..

OH and tell ROBIN she BETTER come with you!!!
Screamin Ian
I will ask Robin to come, but it all depends on weither or not we can get a sitter for the dogs, they will freak out if neither of us is there and nobody else they know is around, I am crossing my fingers though.
WJ
Just bring them...Put them in the back seat of the car and roll
Screamin Ian
something tells me that the 3 dogs would not do well in the back of the car going through the dunes, they are fine in the truck on the highway, but the bumps and the noise would freak at least one of them out, and all I need is big claw marks in my brand new seats, I will save that for the 2nd trip laughing.gif
SandTrap
good idea
WJ
OK it you must laughing.gif
Screamin Ian
Morning guys!!! You are the TOPS!!
SandTrap
Morning Ian have a great St.Patty day
SandTrap
Morning Ian have a great weekend
Screamin Ian
Hey Wes, you must have set your alarm clock way early, you have a great weekend too, and hopefully I will see you next weekend.
SandTrap
For sure Keep your fingers crossed that my mH will be ready I am
Screamin Ian
its a race between your moho and our buggy. who is gonna win?
SandTrap
Right now I think your buggy but Jeanette told me to keep the faith so i hope the MH will be done.

Does your Manx feel left now that the new buggy is coming home?
The Wife
The Manx is still broken and very sad, it is hiding under a tarp in the carport. I wonder if the local critters are using it as a hotel right now icon_biggrin.gif

Keep the faith, the Moho will be done!!!
SandTrap
Thanks Robin I will
Screamin Ian
The poor manx hasnt been driven since Thanksgiving, I think it has some carb issues, so I am going to trailer that down and get it fixed as soon as the weather gets nicer, then that will be my daily driver since I wont be able to afford to drive my F350 with gas being $3.00/gal.
SandTrap
Good idea that will be cool to drive around in the summer time
Screamin Ian
I had a blast driving it around last summer, only thing is the gas tank is so small and the guage doesnt work right, so I have to fill it up every time I drive it, but I am looking forward to driving it again, I was going to strip it down and paint the body, but I have no facilities to do that, so maybe when I get my shop up, I will tackle that project.
SandTrap
I use to have one and we had a blast with it I wish we still had it.
Screamin Ian
I had one a few years back, well I had enough pieces to make a whole one, but traded all of it for labor to build my 2nd buggy frame, the one we have now is a keeper, just when I get all the body stuff done, I am going to stick in a new tranny, and hopefully a subie motor.
SandTrap
That would be cool with a subie in it
Screamin Ian
yup nothing crazy, just a stock one with some chrome, something a little more reliable than a VW, and doesnt need as much tweeking. Who knows, maybe I will put some crazy wide rear tires on it, drop in a Fortin, with a turbo subie or mazda and make it a wheelie machine.

Are you just saying that for my benefit laughing.gif laughing.gif
SandTrap
That would be crazy Ian
jhitesma
I like it icon_biggrin.gif

I just put a second tank in my Manx....26 gallons of gas now between the stock tank up front and the 15 gallon in the back icon_biggrin.gif Plan is to be able to drive down to El Golfo, spend a weekend driving up and down the beach, then drive home....all without having to put gas in it! Still need to build a rack for the top so I can carry my camping supplies though icon_wink.gif

And I'm getting ready to do a motor swap as well. Have almost everything I Need to pop one of my 2.3's in there. Just need to get the adapter plate which I'm hoping to have the cash for in a few weeks.

Once the 2.3 is in the VW is going up for sale - and with the proceeds from that I'll be putting in a bus tranny and some 3x3 arms with coilovers icon_smile.gif

Hey, since I'm planning on selling my rail at the end of the summer I need to have a backup vehicle ready!

SandTrap
Morning Ian 2 days till the new buggy
Screamin Ian
Morning Wes, I am keeping my fingers crossed, How is the moho going?
SandTrap
No word on it yet
WJ
I'm calling them today..I will let you know what they say..

Have a great day Ian
SandTrap
Morning Ian
Screamin Ian
Hey Wes, looks like you guys will win the race between the buggy and the moho, kinda like the turtle and the hare
