@L.R.S. might have a transport going that way.

I have contacted him.. Thank You

I have a mid engine sand car that needs to go to Idaho Sand Dunes. If anyone is headed that way from San Diego, LA area or Arizona and has extra room in their trailer, please reach out asap. I am willing to compensate for your time. I will bring the car to you and help load it. It needs to be dropped at the Idaho Sand Dunes RV Resort

Thanks Chris

I used Glamis Rescue but for a trailer repair, not a recovery.  Found a broken spring hangar on my flatbed while in Glamis.  We had a welder in our group but I was being lazy and figured I'd try these guys because I like to support local businesses, especially one that could save my azz someday.  This should have been a 1 hour job and that's being very very generous.  Just weld the hangar back to the frame is all I asked for.  30 minutes after they started grinding they called me over to look at the hangar and the bolt hole was ovaled out.  They said they had flat stock on hand and could make a new hangar and weld it on.  I said ok, it's worth doing correctly.  2 and a half hours later they were done.  Whatever, it's fixed.  I asked how much and he says $300 muther effing dollars.  WTF?  Paid it and haven't been back since.  Welds were sh!t too.  I took the trailer to my regular repair shop and had them go over everything.

A buddy broke the air bag pivot on the frame of his Funco.  He was camped at Cement Flats and drove it to them for a repair.  No idea what they charged or how long it took.  When they were finished he drove it back to camp and it broke off the frame.  He loaded it up and took it to Joe Fab.  They spent a lot of time grinding off the sh!tty welds and fixing it correctly.  Harvey posted it on his IG.

Reputation means a lot in any business and you can only screw over so many people before word gets around.  Especially true for the small off-roading community.

So true!!! The dude at Glamis Rescue is a complete rip off. When I had my can-am, I broke a 5/8 x 3 bolt. I went to him and got one. He charged me 18.00 for the bolt. I asked him if I got a jar of vasoline with that, and he says... Well no, but I saved your weekend. Ill drive to town or Yuma before I'd buy anything from him again!!

in a 17'' I like the sand tires unlimited,  depending on size i would run a 2'' hollow snout, what snout do you have, and how hard do you drive the car, 

Educate me on the term "Snout"

Just curious on what tire you all are running on the front of your Sandrail. Ive heard good things about the Baja Pro, but they do not make it in a 17" yet.

I have the right car, but it will be more than 30K and less than 70K, if that works... PM me for details

You can call Elena at Dunes edge,,, She would be happy to text you a pic... 760-562-7753

Lets talk wheel spacers.... Pro and cons.

I have a set of wheels I really like but they touch the rear shock.

I was thinking of putting a 1/2" spacer in.

Are these things really safe.. Does anyone run them?

BTW.. Its a high powered rail

It really depends what condition the car is in and what your goal for the car is. 

I had my 66 Chevy II done by Best of Show Coachworks in Escondido, Ca... The car turned out bitchen and the fit and finish was a 10, but it was not cheap. You may want to call Matt @ BOS and let him take a look at it.

FWIW..... all body shops lag and Patience is a must when restoring a car, but I promise you these guy WILL do a first class job

Ill be there

What’s up GD, I’m looking for a reputable body shop to get my 67 Mustang painted. The one guy I had turned out to be a flake and I don’t want to wait a year to get it done. I’m not looking for a complete restoration but also not a cheap job. Willing to pay $$$ for the right job. What do you got?

Where do you live?

Anyone going to Glamis from San Diego area anytime soon... Looking to get a ride to bring my Moho back
